Managing Senior Software Engineer

EnergySage Engineering

You love solving problems. More than that, you want to take part in solving the defining problem of our time: powering the world sustainably. You’re talented, you’re creative, you’re excited about developing teams & talents in addition to great software  — but you want to work on a problem that actually matters. And you want to work at a place full of friendly, kind, and mission-oriented people.

We’re the EnergySage engineering team that has built the number one online comparison-shopping marketplace for rooftop solar, energy storage, community solar, and financing. Through unbiased information, transparency, and choice, we strive to make the experience of going solar as easy as booking a flight online.

We believe in people and interactions over heavy processes. We value quality and best practices, but are also pragmatic enough to realize that we sometimes have to ship before it’s perfect. We work hard but also value our teammates as people, respecting their time outside of the office — work-life balance is our norm rather than our wish. We have fun but, more importantly, we invest in people, want to see them grow, and empower them to bring new ideas and innovations to life. We have a collaborative team of skilled engineers that support each other in learning and solving hard problems. And we look to you to play a key role in supporting that individual and team growth.

We’re the EnergySage Engineering team...Who are you?

You have a lot of talent and are still excited to grow and learn-- and you enjoy enabling others' learning. Join us as we strive to be our best — because continuing the modern way of life requires easily accessible renewable energy.
