Senior Software Engineer at Pleevi

As a Senior Software Engineer, you'll be the cornerstone of our pioneering engineering team at Pleevi. As one of the first technical hires, you'll have a significant impact on shaping our product/architecture and engineering culture from the ground up. If you’re entrepreneurial, thrive in dynamic environments, and are excited by the opportunity to work independently while bringing fresh insights to the table, we want you on our team!

What you'll do

  • System Design and Optimization: Design and implement scalable systems, optimize for performance and cost efficiency, and iterate on our unique optimization algorithm for planning charging sessions.

  • API Development and Microservices: Work extensively with API-driven architectures (e.g., FastAPI) and microservices to build modular, high-performance components that power our EMS scheduling platform.

  • Infrastructure: We are working on a migration of our tech stack to AWS. This implies that part of our initial work will be on IaaC (K8S/Terraform/…).

  • Champion Best Practices: Establish and uphold software development standards, testing methodologies, and efficient development processes.

  • Strategic Vision: Contribute to defining our project roadmaps. We decide together on the shape of our technical/product roadmap.

  • Cross-functional Collaboration: Work closely with our CEO and CTO to adapt to market needs.

  • Mentorship and Leadership: We plan to expand the technical department in the upcoming 2 years to 6 people. We are looking for someone who can not only mentor but also grow into a leadership role as we scale.

Job requirements

  • Technical Expertise: You have deep expertise in Python, Docker, K8S, AWS, FastAPI, and are proficient in system design with a focus on scalability and performance. Experience with API design, microservices, and understanding of energy systems (preferred but not required) will set you apart.

  • Problem-Solving Skills: You are comfortable tackling complex problems, whether it's improving performance, optimizing for cost-efficiency, or evolving the architecture to meet changing needs.

  • Software Development Methodologies: You are well-versed in agile processes, test-driven development (TDD), continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD), and DevOps practices.

  • Mentorship and Communication: You have demonstrated excellent mentorship abilities and communication skills, crucial for shaping our future team.

  • Entrepreneurial Mindset: You are driven, proactive, and comfortable working in a startup environment, bringing new insights and innovative solutions to the table.

What’s in it for you?
