Company mission
To accelerate our clean, plentiful energy future.
Role
Who you are
- You’re a Builder - You have called yourself a hacker/dev/engineer for 5+ years, during which you’ve dug deep into designing and building high-quality backend systems. Our stack includes Ruby on Rails, Hotwire, PostgreSQL, Heroku, AWS, and CircleCI. While in depth knowledge on each of these is not required, some understanding is useful
- You Know What You’re Doing - You should be excited to work on a high-output team, be challenged, and do the best work of your career
- Excited About Cleantech - You are motivated to build technology which drives our clean energy future and, ideally, you are familiar with building the systems necessary to facilitate assessment, development, and management of energy assets
- You have a Team Ethos - You thrive in a creative, inventive, fast-paced rapid-growth environment, with people who are passionate about their work and mission. You’re not just excited to work cross-functionally, you demand it
- You Believe That No Problem is Too Hard - In an industry where people are constantly stuck, we find ways to get it done. You know how to articulate and roll out solutions, recognizing there are many solutions to the same problem. You find new and effective ways to streamline and create processes to increase efficiency
What the job involves
- With that in mind, we have an amazing opportunity for an experienced, intellectually curious, and creative Senior Fullstack Ruby on Rails Developer to join our fast-growing company
- Like the rest of us, this person will wear many hats; you will work closely with our founders, our product team, and Wunder’s various teams of finance and solar experts
- Your role, broadly speaking, will be to solve problems and push renewable energy forward
- Specifically, you will work alongside our talented team of engineers to bring automation to our solar development, solar value evaluation, and loan servicing systems
- Writing, reviewing, and maintaining code primarily written in Ruby (Rails + Hotwire)
- Developing and maintaining our CI/CD pipeline which allows our team to rapidly deploy well-tested code to production multiple times per day
- Solving complex problems inherent to our domain with our unique blend of Rails’ best practices, functional principles, and service-oriented design
- Working with our Product team to identify high-leverage solutions to help Wunder achieve its mission
- Shaping our architectural philosophy and technical direction by exploring nascent technologies or problem spaces new to Wunder
- Enjoying unallocated, flexible time for deep work, collaboration, or attending to the important non-work aspects of life (the engineering team has 5 hours of “no meeting zone” per day
- Establishing the way in which our team and processes evolve as Wunder embarks on its next phase of rapid growth
Our take
Traditionally, centralised hydrocarbon energy companies have been leaders in energy provision to the masses. More sustainable energy providers, such as solar companies, don't have the infrastructure to provide end-to-end services for commercial and industry owners.
Using zero-carbon energy technology and industry expertise, Wunder Capital allows companies of all sizes to seamlessly implement solar power systems across holdings. Wunder Capital is involved in the design, engineering, and installation of all components and provides support and financing across the board.
Wunder Capital aims to lead the solar revolution over the course of the next decade as the cost of solar deployment is set to decline. As prices decrease, they hope more companies and people will be interested in making the switch to solar. Through use of highly standardised technology, they aim to continue efficiently financing and deploying solar energy systems to meet growing demand.

Company values
- Trust: Driver Drives - We start from a place of trust in each role. We value outputs, not inputs. We treat each other as peers with the freedom to experiment and iterate. We believe the closest person to the problem should generally solve the problem
- Improvement: Fast Frequent Feedback - We push ourselves to provide uncomfortable feedback. We speak openly about mistakes and faults. We actively seek critical feedback from each other. We are deeply committed to helping our teammates learn and improve over time
- First Principles: No Problem is Too Hard - We set audacious goals. We relish tackling hard problems. We think independently, logically, and empirically about each aspect of Wunder, and our industry
- Speed - Our biggest advantage is speed. Luckily, the best advantage is speed. We move to decisions swiftly and decisively. We prioritize the critical, and remove the excess. We address internal blockers quickly, and avoid unnecessary external dependencies
- Focus - We stay acutely aware of how the activities that we undertake relate to our goals. We regularly and systematically check in on our goals to ensure that the most important work is getting done quickly, efficiently, and first
- Superlative: Aim Higher - We believe that the work and dedication required to go from good to world-class, to artistic, to boundary-pushing, delivers far more in reward than cost. We are not satisfied until we develop the depth and expertise in our roles to intuit, to innovate and to lead in our fields
- Commitment - At Wunder, every person is deeply committed to our fight against climate change, every person is committed to their team and their coworkers, and every person recognizes that resilience is a key ingredient when it comes to realizing the impact that we all seek
