The electricity grid is changing beyond recognition, and without deploying new software to orchestrate it, we’ll be unable to decarbonise.

At Axle, we’re building the infrastructure that’ll underpin the decarbonised energy system. Our software crushes CO2 and energy costs. Our goal is insanely ambitious, and we’re building a team to match the scale of this challenge. We’ve just raised a Seed round from world-leading investors including Accel (TechCrunch) and we’re growing fast.

We make the technology to move energy usage to times when electricity is cheap and green. Our software controls vehicle charging, heating systems, and home batteries. We use machine learning to figure out what energy people will need, and when they'll need it. We control tens of thousands of energy assets, and we’re growing quickly.

Axle is a unique startup. We’re building in a legacy industry and moving gigawatt-hours of electrons in the real world, but we operate at lightning speed. We ship extraordinarily quickly, and we’re experts in electricity systems. We’re backed by some of the best investors in the world, and we’re growing the team to meet customer demand.

Requirements

This role is responsible for Axle’s participation in energy and flexibility markets, in the UK and globally. This includes:

  • figuring out which flexibility markets we should be participating in, and staying up-to-date on changes in the market
  • entering new flexibility markets in the UK and globally
  • defining the product requirements for market participation


This is a technical and domain-heavy role, but the relevant domain knowledge can be learned. To succeed in this role you’ll need the interest & ability to absorb & process highly-technical information, the foresight to design & execute long-term projects (and course-correct when necessary), and a ‘run through walls’ attitude to overcome the barriers to get us into markets at a startup-urgent pace.

You can expect:

  • insane amounts of ownership
  • hard technical challenges
  • that what you build is commercially and environmentally valuable

In return, we ask for:

  • the courage to to build new things fast
  • a commitment to real world impact over perfection
  • a desire to help build and lead an exceptional and tight knit team
  • deep-seated motivation to combat climate change

This role is an opportunity to repeatedly deliver first-of-a-kind projects across the world, to become an expert in electricity markets globally, and to work at the bleeding edge of global electrification.

Interview process

  1. Initial interview
  2. Take-home exercise
  3. Reference call
  4. Final interview (in-person)
  5. Offer, add'l references, and welcome to the team!

Benefits

We love the idea of fully remote work but it doesn't… work. For very early stage companies, people learn faster, get on better, and accomplish more when they're spending a decent chunk of time together.

  • We ask that you spend 2-3 days a week in our London office.
  • We're looking to pay £50-90k: we’re open to talented folks with little or lots of experience. You'll also receive a meaningful slice of equity in the company.

We areextremelykeen to build a diverse company, and we’re particularly eager to hear from candidates who don't fit the traditional role stereotypes. If you’re motivated by our mission, please do reach out, even if you feel you might not ‘check all the boxes’.
