Role
Who you are

- Strong proficiency in TypeScript and Node.js, or deep experience in other modern backend languages with willingness to adopt our stack

- Strong experience working with MongoDB or other NoSQL databases, including schema design and optimization
- Proven track record building and consuming APIs; experience with cross-team integrations

- Solid experience with CI/CD tooling (GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, or similar)
- Strong commitment to code quality, testing best practices, and building systems that scale
- (For senior-level candidates) Experience mentoring others, leading technical decisions, or setting engineering standards
What the job involves
- Take end-to-end ownership of building and scaling backend features, services, and systems (NestJS/Node.js)
- Design and deliver reliable, secure, and scalable backend services; occasionally support lightweight frontend tasks when needed
- Build, design, and integrate REST APIs with internal and external systems; collaborate closely with cross-functional engineering teams
- Own deployments, build and maintain CI/CD pipelines, manage infrastructure as code, and ensure smooth production operations
- Write clean, testable, and maintainable code with a strong focus on long-term quality and scalability
- Monitor systems, troubleshoot complex issues, drive performance improvements, and contribute to architectural decisions
- (For senior-level candidates) Mentor and guide other engineers, drive technical discussions, and help shape engineering best practices
Our take
Rising electricity prices and increasing demand have led to renewable energy adoption to rapidly become mainstream, however obtaining a home solar power system can be complicated, time-consuming, and expensive. With a mission to bring affordable green energy to everyone, Enpal provides homeowners with an all-in-one solar solution that is both easy and affordable.
The company rents out solar power systems, saving customers from paying high acquisition costs and instead paying a flat monthly rental fee for their customised solar solution that covers all costs (including planning, installation, maintenance, and more), and includes a green electricity tariff.
The company's debt funding in 2024 added more power to an already highly impressive valuation of $2.35 billion and will help it continue on its rapid growth trajectory. As one of the fastest-growing green-tech companies in the world, Enpal also holds the status of becoming Germany’s first renewable energy unicorn company as more people across Europe make the change to renewable energy.
