⚡️About Volter
Volter is a top-tier climate VC-backed B2B energy tech platform building the products that make clean, renewable power simple for businesses everywhere. The energy transition is a huge and vital opportunity, but it's currently too difficult for commercial & industrial companies to achieve. Historically, the energy industry has been too opaque, complex and lacking in trust. We’re fixing that. We aim to be the “Octopus Energy for industry”: a modern tech platform providing new renewable energy products with radical transparency — accelerating deployment of renewables and helping customers cut costs and carbon without complexity.
We’re excited to use technology to help our customers deploy & utilise more renewable energy and fast-forward the energy transition - and we need your help!
Role: Engineer
We’re looking for a Senior Full-Stack Engineer for a 6-month contract to join our small, fast-moving team here at Volter .
As a key member of the team, you'll own end-to-end delivery of product features across the stack, building both customer-facing interfaces and the backend services, APIs and data-powered functionality behind them.
You’ll work closely with founders, engineers, data scientists and commercial teams to solve complex problems and ship customer- and internal-facing features at high velocity — days, not weeks — while laying pragmatic, scalable foundations for our supply operations across pricing, billing and data ingestion.
A few key points:
• Early-stage, VC-backed energy tech startup
• Small founding engineering team, lots of ownership
• Hands-on delivery, working across the stack
• Go / Python / TypeScript / React
• London-based, hybrid
