    • Able to mentor, coach and upskill engineers through code reviews, pair programming, mob programming and technical guidance.
    • Full stack awareness, with frontend development experience ideally using React / MUI or similar modern UI frameworks/component libraries.
    • Experience working in a small, scale-up, start-up or product-focused SaaS software business.
    • Any experience with Domain Driven Design, data engineering, data products, data pipelines, data mesh architectures, platform engineering, ML engineering, IoT hardware, embedded systems or firmware development would be advantageous.
    • A genuine interest in renewable energy, climate technology or building software with meaningful impact.

    What you’ll do as a Principal Software Engineer

    • Take a leading role in the design, delivery and support of green energy software as part of a product-led, Continuous Delivery lifecycle.
    • Shape the architecture and technical direction of a rapidly evolving SaaS product.
    • Build new Java-based services, APIs and product features in collaboration with the wider engineering team.
    • Work with product stakeholders to translate customer and business requirements into robust technical designs.
    • Lead prototyping and feasibility work for new capabilities, including input into build, buy or partner decisions.
    • Act as a technical subject matter expert and point of contact for internal and external stakeholders.
    • Guide engineering practices across scalability, reliability, automated testing, code quality and maintainability.
    • Support and coach other engineers through code reviews, pairing, mob programming and direct technical mentoring.

You’ll be building software that supports the transition towards a greener energy world, with scope to contribute across data engineering, data mesh, ML-enabled applications, cloud-native platforms, IoT and distributed systems as the product evolves.

    You do not need to tick every box. We are looking for a talented, pragmatic and enthusiastic Principal Software Engineer who wants to make a difference, lead by example and help build a high-quality engineering function.
