Software Engineer - Innovation Projects

Your tasks

• Develop and implement Proof-of-Concepts (PoCs) for innovative energy solutions, such as battery & PV simulations, forecasting models, and optimization tools
  
  
• Research and experiment with new technologies, algorithms, and models in the energy sector
  
  
• Collaborate with the core tech team to ensure seamless integration of PoCs into our core products - Our technology stack is primarily Node.js-heavy, with NestJS on the backend and React on the frontend
  
  
• Design and implement APIs and microservices to support real-time analytics and data-driven decision-making
  
  
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to design, develop, and deploy new features
  
  
• Work on a variety of topics rather than a single long-term project, ensuring a high level of diversity and learning opportunities
