Description

At Factor, we’re building the commercialisation layer for the new energy economy. Our engineers don’t just write code — they shape the foundations of a platform designed to transform how energy is priced, forecast, and delivered globally.

As a senior engineer, you will play a pivotal role in developing the core of our system: scalable data pipelines, pricing engines, and APIs that support real-time decision making for energy retailers and their customers. You’ll work in a highly capable senior team, where ownership, curiosity, and engineering excellence are expected — and where AI tools are used daily to multiply impact and velocity.

Your Key Responsibilities

• Build and ship backend features and services with a focus on elegance, scalability, performance, and resilience.
• Design and evolve Factor’s core data and application architecture (Typescript rust, AWS, etc).
• Solve complex, end-to-end problems across the stack, from data ingestion and transformation, complex algorithms, through to APIs and partner integrations.
• Contribute to engineering standards, peer reviews, and design discussions that raise the technical bar.
• Use AI and automation to accelerate development cycles, testing, and deployment.
• Help shape a culture of technical excellence, collaboration, and high ownership.
