ENODA’s World-Class Team

ENODA’s world-class team is building the first truly decentralized, intelligent energy system that will reshape how we generate, store, and distribute energy.

Foundational to our holistic and integrated platform approach, the Enoda PRIME® Exchanger is a first-of-a-kind dynamic power flow hardware designed to maintain “on-target” frequency and voltage, increasing grid efficiency and capacity for distributed energy sources like renewables and EVs.

Enoda ENSEMBLE™ is our ecosystem coordinator of ENODA and third-party assets, able to forecast, aggregate, and bid capacity in real time, functioning as a networked “operating system” for the electrical grid.

This is more than simply managing electricity flow. It is about creating the foundational system to prepare for a radically more capable, prosperous, and intelligent future.

Job Description

We have an opportunity for an experienced Manufacturing Automation Engineer to join our Manufacturing team in support of our ongoing scale-up.

This role will focus on developing, implementing, and optimizing automated processes to ensure ENODA can scale manufacturing efficiently.

  • Design and implement automated solutions for assembly, testing, and manufacturing workflow including the selection of appropriate hardware (sensors, actuators, robotics, etc.)
  • Collaborate with equipment providers on the development & delivery of production systems.
  • Write and troubleshoot code for PLCs and HMIs for existing and new operations.
  • Identify opportunities for automation to increase efficiency, reduce errors, and optimize throughput.
  • Explore and propose innovative means to produce the product and its components.
  • Collaborate with production engineering to convert manual workflows into scalable automation.
  • Introduce lean automation principles to streamline operations and improve OEE
  • Work with engineering teams to ensure that designs are compatible with automated manufacturing processes.
  • Develop simulations and feasibility assessments to qualify partners and de-risk investments
  • Partner with supply chain and quality teams to ensure automated processes meet supplier and compliance requirements.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
