Technical Sales Representative

**ABOUT AMBER**

Amber is a **new way to buy and sell power,** designed for a world powered by renewable energy. We **give customers direct access to the real-time wholesale electricity price** as it varies every 5 mins. We then provide the technology to shift energy usage to the times when cheaper renewables are available in the grid and export to the grid at times when the price is highest. It’s a **cheaper way to buy power**, **a more rewarding way to sell power,** and the **fastest way for Australia to reach 100% renewable energy.**

We are **growing rapidly and have thousands of customers** who love what we are doing and a great product that will play a significant role in driving Australia towards a renewable future. We are backed by **Australia’s leading VCs (including Square Peg Capital and Main Sequence Ventures)**, impact-focused investors and individuals, and **most recently by Commonwealth Bank, NRMA and Gentrack**.

We’re now at a critical moment in taking the business to real scale as we disrupt a huge market for the better.
