Senior Software Engineer (Home Energy)
About Enode
The grid was built for predictable, centralised power. Today it's absorbing intermittent supply from grid scale solar and wind, alongside dynamic demand from EVs, heat pumps, and home batteries. The missing piece is software that can connect and orchestrate these devices at scale.
Enode provides the infrastructure layer that makes this possible. Our Connect API gives energy companies a single integration to 1000+ devices across 80+ brands. Our optimisation tooling gives energy companies the building blocks to manage those devices locally - think smart charging for EVs. Our Flex product turns those connected devices into a flexible, controllable asset for energy companies.
We work with device manufacturers across the energy hardware ecosystem - from EV brands to heat pump and solar inverter producers. Our customers are energy retailers, utilities, and traders building the next generation of energy services. We're backed by Y Combinator, Lowercarbon Capital, and Creandum.
The decisions made now will shape how the energy system gets built. We're looking for people who take ownership, move fast, and care deeply about the role technology can play in the energy transition.
AI is fundamental to how we work
AI is how a team our size keeps rewiring the way we work, fast enough to match what our mission demands. We look for people who reach for AI as a reflex and who can drop a habit that used to work. People who care about unblocking others, not just about what they ship themselves. If that's not quite how you work yet but it's the direction you're heading, we'd still like to hear from you. We assess this in our interview process, alongside everything else we look at.
What we're looking for:
We're hiring a Senior Software Engineer to help build the software layer that makes home energy devices work as one system. The Home Energy team owns Enode's integrations and APIs for batteries, solar inverters, HVAC, and smart meters, along with the home energy management (HEM) system and statistics that customers build on. You'll build integrations with leading OEMs and help mature our API surface into the unified control layer for the home, at a moment when customer demand for battery and home energy optimization is accelerating.
You'll join the Home Energy team, reporting to the team's Engineering Manager. You'll collaborate closely with your PM, fellow backend engineers, and our partnership and commercial teams, from assessing OEM API feasibility to shaping how customers control energy assets through our platform.
In this role, you will:
Build and maintain integrations with OEM cloud platforms across batteries, solar, smart meters, and HVAC.
Design and evolve our home energy APIs, unifying telemetry and controls across HEM system, batteries, and curtailment into a product surface customers can build optimizations on.
Build with AI as a normal part of how you work, and turn what you learn into tools, skills and processes the rest of the team picks up, so the leverage is shared rather than personal.
Improve observability and vendor performance across our integrations, and take part in the team's triage rotation.
Work with partnership and commercial teams on API feasibility for new OEM integrations.
Build strong relationships with the customers who rely on our platform, working alongside your PM and commercial partners, and let what you learn from them shape what we build.
Debug and ship production features in Node/TypeScript on our AWS-based stack.
Take a product-engineer mindset, balancing speed, quality, and customer impact in your day-to-day decisions.
