Full Job Description

📋 Description

• Join a fast-moving energy technology company building the operating system for the next generation of electricity supply in Europe.
• The engineering team is developing a modular billing engine, low-level energy-market communication protocols, and a full accounting ledger — powering dynamic electricity plans for households and hardware manufacturers across the continent.
• As a Backend Engineer on the core infrastructure team, you'll work on the systems that sit at the heart of the platform: scalable, reliable, and designed to handle the complexity of real-time energy markets, embedded billing, and regulated electricity supply.
• Solve for complexity through design — translate ambiguous, multi-layered business and regulatory requirements into clean, maintainable backend architecture.
• Scale the core — own and evolve the critical services underpinning billing, ledger, and market communication systems as the platform grows.
• Bias for action — ship with speed and confidence; make pragmatic trade-offs and iterate quickly in a fast-paced environment.
• Raise the bar — champion engineering best practices, participate actively in code review, and help grow the technical culture of a small but high-calibre team.

🎯 Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or equivalent practical experience.
• 3–10+ years of backend development experience.
• Strong proficiency in TypeScript (Node.js), including a solid grasp of asynchronous programming patterns.
• Production experience with PostgreSQL and an ORM (e.g. Drizzle) for data access and schema management.
• Experience with Next.js, including API routes or server components used for backend services.

🏖️ Benefits

• Salary: €80,000 – €120,000 per year, depending on experience.
• Visa sponsorship is available for eligible candidates.
• Opportunity to join a small, high-impact team at an early stage and shape core technical decisions from the ground up.
