Adelaide Preferred | Full-time

At OptiGrid, we're building the tech to significantly improve the economics of grid-connected batteries and accelerate the clean energy transition. Through years of research and development, we've built a proprietary market forecasting and battery optimisation platform that substantially outperforms the status quo.

Backed by prominent deep-tech and clean-tech investors, our multidisciplinary team of software engineers, data scientists, and power system modellers is growing - and we're looking for a (Mid-Level to Senior) Software Engineer to help us scale the platform.

This is an incredible opportunity to become an early and foundational team member at a climate-tech company that is at a growth inflection point, addressing a critical problem in one of the most important and fastest-growing markets.

 What you'll do

  • Collaborate closely with engineers, data scientists, and energy specialists to deliver new product features and improvements.
  • Productionise forecasting and optimisation models in Python, ensuring they are robust, scalable, and production-ready.
  • Develop and maintain the data pipelines powering our forecasting, optimisation, and bidding workflows.
  • Set standards and establish best practices for our production codebase on AWS infrastructure using modern DevOps practices.

 What you'll bring

  • 5+ years of Python experience, including strong fluency with Python's numerical ecosystem (e.g. Pandas, Polars, NumPy).
  • 3+ years of working in technical teams, building data pipelines, delivering productionised code, and building or maintaining live applications.
  • Experience with AWS microservices, containerisation (Docker), CI/CD automation (e.g. GitHub Actions), and Python-based API development (e.g. FastAPI).
  • Knowledge of infrastructure-as-code tools (e.g. Terraform).
  • A collaborative, curious mindset and a willingness to work across disciplines.

Bonus points for…

  • Experience in the energy or trading sectors.
  • Exposure to mathematical optimisation libraries.
  • Experience building ML pipelines or working with time series data.

What you'll love about working at OptiGrid

  • Competitive salary and generous Employee Share Options Plan.
  • Flexible work hours with hybrid or remote work arrangements.
  • Fast-paced, mission-driven environment where your code has direct real-world impact.
  • Work alongside a curious, ambitious, and tight-knit team solving hard problems together.
  • Opportunities for career growth as the company scales.
