Software engineering intern

Do you want to be part of accelerating the green energy transition as part of a fast-growing, impact-focused team? We are looking for ambitious software engineering intern(s) to join our early-stage, VC-backed startup Summer 2023.

About us

We are Geniess. Our mission is to enable 24/7 clean electricity. We do this by developing software to optimize and evaluate energy storage installations. Our solutions enable faster and better battery storage investment decisions, improving the system design and accelerating implementation.

We’re a small and fast-growing company, with funding support from both Norwegian and international VCs. We are building a curious and collaborative team to tackle one of the most important - and unsolved - challenges in the energy transition today. We are prioritizing building a diverse team and ensure everyone can bring their full self to work.

About you

The ideal candidate is 1-4 years into their studies, impact oriented, and passionate about the energy transition. As part of an early-stage startup, you are self-motivated and can work in a dynamic and independent way. You are curious, have an appetite for learning, and aren’t put off by challenging problems. Our solution lies in the intersection between fields such as data science, power systems, and investment analysis; and we highly value curiosity and good collaboration skills across disciplines.

About the role

In this role you will be working closely with the CTO and dedicated energy experts, developing and deploying solutions for simulating optimal battery configuration and performance in various services, with the goal of answering questions such as: “How long is a battery installation at a solar plant expected to last?” and “What is the optimal battery arrangement for a large industrial site?”.

We’re a small and fast-moving team, and you will have the opportunity to see every part of a startup company. Our solution is built using Python, Docker, Terraform, and Google Cloud Platform, and the time from idea to production is short.

Preferred qualifications

• Currently studying computer science, mathematics, engineering, or similar

• Experience coding in Python or similar language

• Interest in startups and the energy transition

• Fluent in English; Norwegian and other languages a plus

What we offer

• A summer with purpose and impact - accelerating the energy transition and solving cutting-edge, global problems

• The ability to learn and solve interesting problems in a startup environment

• Fun and engaging team with a strong collaborative culture

• Seating at our offices on Aker Brygge in the center of Oslo

• Competitive salary & potential for part-time work after the internship

If you feel you might not meet all of the requirements for this position we encourage you to apply regardless. We don't want imposter syndrome, the confidence gap, or feeling underrepresented prevent us from meeting incredible people.
