Our technologies span many domains and disciplines, from mobile development to data modeling to building science to image processing to natural language generation. As part of our team, you will have a wide variety of experiences and responsibilities, including the opportunity to:
- Develop, scale, and support QuitCarbon’s software applications and services, including core technology like our Electrification Engine
- Generate “Electrification Plans” using a unique combination of structured data, natural language generation, large language models (LLMs), and human editors to guide and motivate homeowners
- Optimize the homeowner onboarding experience on web and mobile, ensuring more homeowners successfully begin their electrification journey
- Continually improve our underlying algorithms and data models (including home, energy, economic, and climate, and more) that make our data assets a unique competitive advantage
- Develop our “Incentives API” that ensures everyone – not just rich households – can have access to affordable, clean, renewable energy via rebates and tax credits
- Build a scalable backend and hyper-localized customer experience to expand to every metro area in the country
Most importantly, you will get to use your amazing software skills to help tackle the climate crisis!
What We Look For:
- 5+ years of full stack web development, including modern front-end technologies (e.g. React) and server-side web technologies (e.g. Ruby on Rails, Node).
- Experience with modern cloud infrastructure and technology (e.g. serverless, containers, cloud databases, etc) and opinions about choosing the right tool for the job.
- 5+ years of production-level operational experience.
- Comfort with ambiguity! There is no playbook to follow as we’re pulling the future forward.
- The ability to prioritize and make product design decisions independently.
- Experience taking a product, technology, or process from zero to one.
- Folks motivated by delivering customer value, not just interesting engineering problems.
- Experience with energy, building science, climate, economic modeling, or marketplaces is a plus.
- A passion for solving the climate crisis!
