at Anza RE

🏢 About Anza RE

Anza RE is at the forefront of accelerating renewable energy adoption by optimizing procurement for solar and energy storage projects. Their focus on streamlining complex supply chains in the clean energy sector makes them a mission-driven company where your technical work directly contributes to a sustainable future.

About This Role

As a Senior Full Stack Engineer, you'll own features end-to-end, from design to production, building solutions that digitize and optimize procurement for solar and storage projects. Your work will directly impact the efficiency and scalability of renewable energy deployment, making clean energy more accessible.

💡 A Day in the Life

Your day might start with a stand-up to sync with product and design on a new feature for optimizing supplier quotes. You'll then dive into coding a GraphQL API with Node.js and a React frontend, writing unit and integration tests, and later review a teammate's PR. In the afternoon, you might collaborate with QA to debug a production issue, then spend time refactoring an existing module for better scalability.
