Senior Software Engineer

The Company You’ll Join

Amperon is the leading analytics and forecasting company for the energy transition. Our platform leverages advanced algorithms and machine learning techniques to accurately forecast energy demand on both the supply (power & utilities companies) and demand (large energy users) sides of the market. We incorporate real-time data feeds that help our clients reduce cost and monitor energy efficiency.

We bring the brightest minds from energy, security and technology in order to combat climate changes and transition to clean energy solutions. We have offices in Texas but are a remote first company.

Our Mission 

As the electricity grid faces challenges due to renewables, EVs, climate change, and more, there's a desperate need for an upgrade. Amperon's blend of energy expertise and AI technology offers analytics and forecasting software to improve grid reliability and accelerate decarbonization. We're building the next generation of market-leading energy analytics and forecasting products, and we want you to be part of our journey!

The team you’ll work with

The mission of the platform team is to empower our customers by transforming complex energy data into simple yet highly interactive user-friendly apps. We are on the forefront of energy forecasts, continuously setting standards for user experience and performance while exceeding customer expectations. We are a small team so you’ll have the opportunity to help with driving architectural decisions.

The Impact

We have a direct impact around our expansion into new markets such as Europe. We are the first point of contact with direct users which allows us to access millions of data points used for new enhancements. We have direct impact with climate volatility by creating custom weather scenarios for simulations where weather forecasts could change and demand would be affected based on those cases.

The problems you’ll solve 

• Displaying a lot of data in a performant way, both from a back-end/db perspective and a front-end/rendering one.
• Being able to master both front-end and back-end to take full ownership of certain features in a fast-paced environment with multiple technologies and languages.
• Preventing/minimizing the amount of bugs/alerts when working together with two other senior teams on the same codebase, orchestrating features together.
• Building internal tooling for non-technical stakeholders  to support internal processes and workflows

You may be a fit for this role if

You have senior-level experience building client-facing applications. You are highly proficient on the frontend with React, Next.js, and TypeScript. You have experience on the backend with Python, specifically with data-heavy applications. Experience building and deploying client-facing APIs with a focus on scalability and security.

Benefits & Perks

While we are serious about our company's culture, we aren't going to force "culture" to prove that we are cool and fun. It’s a company filled with smart, genuinely nice individuals who are passionate about data science, energy and working together to build a product that can have a lasting impact on our planet.

Even though we are a remote company with employees spread across the globe, we still believe human interaction is a good thing. We will also have an all-company event at least once a year so people can get to know each other in a more fun and social way.
