UX-focused Software Engineer for AI-first energy optimization

Salary Competitive

Do you want to join us to empower everyone to consume energy efficiently and intelligently? We are looking for software engineers located in Europe to join our fast-growing technical team of data scientists and engineers. You’ll play a central role in the development of our AI-first energy and climate optimization platform and our drive towards unprecedented speed and scale in the transition to zero-carbon energy use.

You will be bringing value to our users by working directly on our product with a focus on UX, UI and data visualization, but as part of a small engineering team you will have a chance to contribute and develop your skills across our entire stack.


Your responsibilities will include

  • Develop and improve new and existing features

  • Contribute end-to-end from idea to deployment of new features

  • Take ownership and manage your work independently


Skills and expertise

  • Experience with software engineering practices

  • In-depth experience with Python/Django

  • Experience with web technologies: HTML + CSS + Javascript. Note that we do not use a frontend framework like React

  • Knowledge of technologies in our current stack: Postgres, Redis, Docker, AWS, Linux, Git

  • Excellent English verbal and written communication skills


Personal qualifications

  • A self-starter mindset - you enjoy working independently while keeping the team’s common goal in mind

  • A pragmatic approach to problem solving. It’s more important for you to solve the problem than to use new/hyped technology

  • An understanding of trade-offs between simple 80% solutions and complex, maintenance-heavy 100% solutions

  • Never missing an opportunity to grow, or help others do so

  • Comfortable with asynchronous, written communication


Join our team because

  • You want to make a difference and help drive towards zero-carbon energy use

  • We value freedom and responsibility in our teams so you feel empowered to do great work 

  • We recognize the value of different perspectives and we aim to create a diverse workspace

  • Our open and candid feedback culture praises you when you do great and helps you do even better in the future


Practicalities

Our engineering team works asynchronously and autonomously, guided by our overall company goals. There are no daily standups or strict sprints but a focus on efficient processes that work well for everyone, individually and collectively. In this role you can work remotely in Europe or from our office in Aarhus, Denmark.


About Ento Labs

Our mission is to make it easy and cost-effective to analyze and monitor energy consumption of every building on the planet with scalable machine learning systems and help drive decarbonization of the built environment.

Energy use in buildings causes around 28% of global greenhouse gas emissions, and are still rising due to slow and expensive energy optimization processes. Using data and machine learning we can solve many of the inefficient steps in the process, including robust identification, prioritization, collaboration, verification and monitoring of energy optimization efforts.

During the past year, we’ve welcomed many public and commercial building owners and partners to our network. We are now covering 6000 buildings and 1 TWh of energy consumption. This has already led to large energy and CO2 savings, but we’re just getting started.

As part of the early team, you will be essential in making our vision a reality - we’re very much looking forward to welcoming you on our journey.

We evaluate and interview candidates on an ongoing basis, so apply today rather than tomorrow.

Working at
Ento

Our mission is to make it easy and cost-effective to monitor and optimise the energy consumption of every building. By combining millions of data points and the power of artificial intelligence, our system is capable of gaining deep insights into your buildings’ energy performance. We create a structured plan to save energy – the smart way. Did you know that building operations contribute to about 28% of global greenhouse gas emissions? Unfortunately, the current energy optimisation processes are slow and expensive. Using data and machine learning we can solve many of the inefficient steps in the process, including robust identification, prioritisation, collaboration, verification and monitoring of energy optimisation efforts. We currently cover over 18,000 buildings and have helped save more than 6,000 tons of CO2. Our team consists of 15 members spread across 4 countries, with our headquarters located in Denmark (Aarhus and Copenhagen). We also have active sales efforts in DK, Nordics, and the UK.
