About us
Who are we?
We are the leading innovator in energy technology
Since day one, we've used technology to solve some of the biggest problems in energy, revolutionising a broken industry for the benefit of customers.
And we're not stopping there. Now, we're reimagining the entire energy system. We built the first mobile payment solution for customers, and now we're introducing smart energy products into people's homes and developing an intelligent control platform for the grid; creating support for more renewable energy using batteries and electric vehicles.
We trust our development teams to choose their tech stacks
Youβll commonly encounter Scala
, TypeScript
, Clojure
, Node
, Java
, Docker
, Kubernetes
, Kafka
, React
, Cypress
, Swift
and React Native
. We run our services in GCP
, AWS
and Azure
.
We look for engineers with interest in the above, but your experience doesnβt have to match our stack. Weβre interested in engineers with deep experience in similar technologies and also polyglots who are comfortable working across the stack.

Our technology culture is key to our success
Everything we've achieved has come from our culture of empowerment and ownership in tech. Our teams are motivated by owning products that positively impact over a million people and also our environment, from inception to continuous improvement.
We believe strongly in test driven development, continuous delivery and building scalable, resilient solutions. Our engineers love working in teams and collaboratively building features, sharing their learnings and deepening their own knowledge.
