About This Role
This Senior Full Stack Engineer role involves developing scalable applications that process large energy datasets to drive data-driven decisions for SMB sustainability. You'll be building both the analytics algorithms and user interfaces that make complex energy data actionable, directly impacting how businesses reduce their carbon footprint and operational costs.
💡 A Day in the Life
A typical day might start with reviewing energy analytics algorithm performance, then collaborating with the product team on new feature specifications, followed by implementing API endpoints for data collection and refining React components for data visualization. You'd likely end the day with code reviews focusing on security and scalability for features that help SMBs track their carbon reduction progress.
