The Role

Hands-on leadership role managing 20 engineers across multiple teams who are building a no-code energy systems modelling platform, transitioning to a PaaS model for external users.

• Shape how the team uses AI tooling to raise, not lower, the bar

• Proven engineering leadership: hiring, coaching, 1:1s, and team delivery
• Strong software design fundamentals: DDD, xwzovoh modularity, clean APIs, versioning
• PostgreSQL, ORMs, migrations, and performance optimisation
• Experience building developer platforms, multi-tenant systems, or public APIs
• Python (FastAPI/Flask), Docker, GitHub Actions, Cloud Run, CI/CD, containers
• Clear communicator across engineers, product managers, and senior stakeholders
