Software Engineer, Product

About Ecotricity We're Ecotricity, the world's first green energy supply company! Our electricity is 100% green – made from the sun and the wind. In just over 30 years we’ve built 24 wind parks and 3 sun parks all over the country. Ecotricity is the only energy company in the world certified as vegan by both The Vegan Society and Viva!, the vegan charity. As you’d expect, vegan energy is produced without involving animals. We’re proud that we’re a Which? Eco Provider for energy. The Which? Eco Provider endorsement is given to energy suppliers who make the greatest positive impact in generating renewable electricity, building new sources of green energy and helping the transition away from fossil fuels. What makes Ecotricity different from other energy companies is that we take the money we make from our customers’ bills and use it to build new forms of green energy. We call it Bills into Mills and it means that by paying your bill every month you’re helping fight climate change. Every new windmill or sun park we build reduces Britain’s reliance on fossil fuels to generate electricity.

• Rainmaker is about 120 people, and the software team is small. Our work combines autonomous aircraft, atmospheric science, field operations, data analysis, and customer delivery. Product engineers work across those areas and take meaningful ownership of what Rainmaker builds.
• Rainmaker's software supports campaign planning, field operations, weather analysis, aircraft operations, and customer delivery. You will build across that system, including internal tools, our operational platform, data products, and customer-facing software.
• You will work directly with operators, scientists, engineers, and business teams. You will find important problems, decide what software should do, and own the solution from the first prototype through production.
• This is a hands-on, full-stack role on a small software team. The work is not tied to one product or department. You will go where better software can have the most impact.
• Build internal tools that replace manual workflows and help teams coordinate
• Develop the operational platform used to plan, monitor, and review campaigns
• Make weather, geospatial, flight, and campaign data useful to the people making decisions
• Build customer-facing products when the problem calls for them
• Work with users to understand problems, test ideas, and improve what you ship
• Own products through deployment, maintenance, and continued development
• Improve the shared components and technical patterns behind Rainmaker's software

• You have owned software from an ambiguous problem through a maintained production product
• You are strong with React and TypeScript and can work across a backend using Python or Node, databases, and cloud infrastructure
• You have good product judgment and can create useful interfaces without a complete specification or finished design
• You have built software for complex, technical, or data-intensive workflows
• You work well with users and can distinguish the underlying problem from the first requested feature
• You communicate technical ideas clearly to people with different backgrounds
• Supporting the Rainmakers behind the mission
• Making earth more habitable is ambitious work and we want the people doing it to feel supported
• A stake in what we build: Meaningful stock options and the opportunity to help shape Rainmaker as an early member of the team.
• Support for your health: Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance for you and your family.
• An investment in your future: A 401(k) with employer matching to help you build long-term savings.
• Time to recharge: Unlimited PTO for rest, exploration, and the people and pursuits that matter to you plus a generous paid holiday schedule.
• Time for a growing family: Paid parental leave for both parents to welcome a child and spend time together.
• Lunch together: Daily lunch provided at our El Segundo headquarters, giving Rainmakers a chance to share a meal and connect with teammates.
• Help making the move: Relocation assistance for eligible roles to support your transition to Rainmaker.
