Senior Software Engineer - Trading Systems Clean Energy Remote €85,000 + Bonus

Ready to use your software skills to power the next generation of clean energy?

This leading Greentech scale-up (backed by £250m+ in funding) is building trading and monitoring systems that optimise how clean energy is traded, stored, and delivered across global markets.

They're expanding their offshore engineering team and are open to people within 3 hours of London - including Portugal, Poland, Serbia, Romania, Moldova, and beyond.

The Tech:

Python is the core language, but if you're a strong engineer from another stack, they'll give you 3-4 weeks to upskill - they hire for capability, not just code syntax.

What you'll be doing

• Designing automated trading systems for green energy markets
• Building real-time bidding, dispatch, and optimisation tools
• Developing data pipelines using Kafka & TimescaleDB
• Creating microservices that connect trading platforms and grid operators
• Building monitoring dashboards for grid stability and energy storage operations

What they're looking for

• Strong software fundamentals - ideally Python, Rust is a bonus
• Experience with distributed systems, REST APIs, and microservices
• Knowledge of Kafka (or similar), PostgreSQL, and time-series data
• Familiar with Docker, monitoring, and observability tools
• Experience in a startup or scale-up, collaborating closely with engineers in a fast-moving environment

Bonus points if you've worked in energy markets, trading systems, industrial control, or IoT.

This is a permanent, fully remote role offering competitive pay, a bonus scheme, and the chance to shape a pioneering clean energy project with real-world impact.
