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

As a Lead Fullstack Engineer, you will be part of a small squad working on specific product and segment features. You’ll be responsible for managing a cross functional team of individuals, mostly made up of Software Engineers but also including a Product Manager and Product Designer.
As the company expands its operations to other renewable energy sources, you’ll work on a planning tool for outlets such as heat pumps, solar and more.
Before the end of the year, you will help polish and fine tune our web-based product, with the goal to then contribute towards building a brand new app from scratch, which will serve our customers and expand how the product will be utilised by our multidisciplinary customer base.
As a Lead within the team, you will be expected to authorise independent initiatives separate of C-suite. This means being someone who leads by example when it comes to having high standards, whilst also being a manager that can continue to be hands on and contribute to our code base on a consistent basis.

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
• Conduct peer reviews
• Manage 1-1s and weeklies with the team
• Lead independent, full cycle roadmaps

From an Engineering perspective, the role is Fullstack with a 80/20 split between Frontend & Backend. You can expect management to consume 30% of your overall time.
