Description
Clean Power Finance is a revenue-stage startup backed by top investors taking the solar and renewable energy industry to the next level. Our web-based platform is the #1 solution for solar PV installers, manufacturers, and distributors in the US today, and our company is growing as the greentech sector continues to expand rapidly, increasing energy independence and helping the environment across the country and around the world.
Do video games and ad-driven social widgets leave you cold? Do you want your code to change the world for the better? Build software that makes a difference! Come create products that drive 40% of the solar market and put millions of dollars of solar on homes every single day. There are $92 billion of electricity bills ready to be replaced by solar, and our software is the key to realizing that potential.
Position Overview:
We are looking for an experienced senior software engineer to help drive new features and lead technical efforts within the company. You should have experience in leading and managing the work of a small team of developers, but your passion should be for coding.
Our software engineers don't just create world-changing products, they use the latest technologies to tackle some of the most complex software problems in the SaaS world. Quoting a solar system requires accessing and manipulating billions of datapoints in realtime, and we do it thousands of times per week, every week.
We work as a collaborative team with the shared goal of delivering the best software possible, anchored in a culture of quality, delivery, and innovation. Our developers bring energy, a great sense of humor, and a strong passion for changing the world into everything they do.
Qualifications:
The care and feeding of these massive dynamic datasets, coupled with the reliability, tracking, security, and performance required to execute financial transactions, presents a real challenge. We meet this challenge with a methodology that is lightweight yet structured, accommodating the complexity of our work while keeping things flexible and fun.
The basic stack you should be comfortable with is:
- Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP
- JavaScript, jQuery, HTML5 and CSS
- The MVC design pattern and MVC frameworks
- REST APIs using XML and JSON
- Familiarity with the Zend Framework, Doctrine, and SVN a plus
With this stack as a base, our engineers are willing to pick up any of the languages, technologies, or methodologies necessary to do the job at hand, and are comfortable moving between front end, back end, and architecture roles as required to create resilient and scalable solutions.
To Apply:
Please apply via our website. When sending us an application, include a cover letter that tells us about your background and why you care about energy independence! If you've got links to your Github or SourceForge accounts or links to personal or hobby apps that you have built please include those as well.
