<div class="job-responsabilities-wrapper">
<h2 class="title job-responsabilities">About the Role</h2>
<div class="rich-text w-richtext">
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Amply is an early-stage startup building game-changing software for heat pump pros. Residential buildings represent 20% of all U.S. carbon emissions, of which more than half are related to home heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. Therefore, retrofitting 80 million home HVAC systems with modern heat pumps is the single biggest residential decarbonization opportunity we have. It is critical we get this once-in-a-generation shift infrastructure and building electrification transition right.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Getting it right begins with the right design. </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Replacing a conventional HVAC system with a heat pump is not a simple "box swap" &ndash; heat pumps are far more sensitive to sizing and equipment selection assumptions. There are also concerns about aesthetics, rebates, operational costs, and more.</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> For heat pump professionals, often the salesperson, these details end up as hours of "homework" on nights and weekends for every project (or they just don&rsquo;t get done at all).</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We founded Amply to make the lives of heat pump professionals easier, make homeowners happier, and deliver on the potential of heat pumps to reduce emissions. If we make heat pump pro&rsquo;s lives easier, they&rsquo;ll have more capacity to accelerate this generational shift in infrastructure. Homeowners delighted with their heat pumps will spur more rapid adoption. And right-sized systems will improve home comfort and health while minimizing carbon emissions and electric grid impact.&nbsp;&nbsp;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We are looking for a mobile engineer who believes in our mission, who loves building beautiful product, who is excited to join a fast-moving, self-motivated team, and who is pumped (pun intended!) about geeking out on heat pumps. </span></p>
