Proven track record owning system-level technical decisions (architecture, database strategy, modularity). Experience with high-integrity systems where auditability, reproducibility, and correctness are contractual (e.g., financial, settlement, metering). Ability to absorb, validate, and own offshore/partner-supplied technical specifications. Strong commercial literacy (pricing, packaging, cost-to-serve, business cases). Nice-to-Haves: Domain knowledge in energy trading, power markets, or electricity utilities (wheel, imbalance, market bidding). Multi-tenant/multi-customer product design experience ("one codebase, multiple customers"). Hands-on experience driving AI-assisted engineering workflows. Experience managing legacy-replacement programs and data migration at scale. Key Responsibilities (Keep it brief) Drive Technical & Product Direction: Set architectural boundaries, build-vs-buy strategies, and maintain a unified codebase across multiple enterprise customers. Own the Functional Spec: Validate, test, and adapt complex ETRM specs provided by specialist European partners to align engineering, delivery, and commercial goals. Lead Prototyping & Demos: Drive a design-partner approach by demonstrating early working software to prospective customers and converting feedback into testable requirements. Build & Scale the Team: Structure delivery teams, hire talent (including a dedicated analyst and tech leads), and establish strong code review and quality disciplines. Why Join Us?
