REQUIREMENTS

• 1-2+ years of working experience

ABOUT US

Right now, 25% of CO2 emissions in Europe are caused by heating our buildings. In order for this to be reduced, the transition towards renewable energy needs to be simplified and made more accessible. There are too few installers to meet the growing demand for heat pumps, and a solution to match this trend needs to be brought to the market.
autarc is developing the leading operating system (OS) for heat pump installers, enabling a more digital and efficient installation process for heat pumps.
Through this, autarc is reducing the hurdles to decarbonizing single-family homes and small apartment buildings in Europe, with the goal to help with the planning and designing of 1 million heat pumps by 2030

You will be working alongside the CTO and 2 other Engineers to help design and improve the core product, which is focused on heat pumps. As the company plans to expand its operations for other renewable energy sources, you’ll work closely with another team who serve the same function but for solar-based services.
Before the end of the year, you will help polish and fine tune their web-based product. Then, over the course of the first 3-6 months of 2025, you will help build a brand new app from scratch, which will serve their customers and expand how the product will be utilised by their multidisciplinary customer base.
As a Junior within the team, you will be exposed to working in a tight-knit team in building something from the ground up. You’ll be continuously involved in decision making, as opposed to having narrow and machine-like tasks in a larger organisation.

Other responsibilities will include:

• Creating Frontend applications in React
• Focusing on flawless Frontend designs and UI
• Interacting with the Design team to improve UX
• Be hands-on in designing, coding and testing cycles for both existing and new features
• Develop B2B SaaS applications
• Have a high level of responsibility to turn ideas into performant and reliable code

The role is Fullstack, with a 80/20 split between Frontend & Backend.
