About the job

About Arbor

At Arbor, we empower renters, homeowners, and small businesses to reduce their electricity costs. Our innovative approach is reshaping the electricity marketplace, driving towards a sustainable energy future. As the demand for electricity surges, driven by AI data centers, many homes and businesses still rely on outdated utility interfaces, wasting billions while renewable energy sources remain untapped. Our AI-driven platform aggregates users to access wholesale pricing, seamlessly switching to the best rates and optimizing energy usage in real-time, delivering market advantages previously reserved for Fortune 500 companies. With over $20 million raised from prominent investors, we have already saved more than $7.5 million for tens of thousands of customers.

The Opportunity

We are seeking a talented back-end engineer to join our agile engineering team, responsible for developing the core infrastructure of our energy marketplace.

What You'll Do

  • Design and create scalable back-end services that power our marketplace platform.

  • Develop and manage cloud infrastructure on GCP using Terraform, ensuring reliability and cost-effectiveness during our growth.

  • Establish robust data pipelines for real-time rate monitoring and market intelligence.

  • Collaborate with product and cross-functional teams to align system and supplier requirements into high-performing, resilient user experiences. Take ownership of select features and projects as needed.

  • Work closely with a small team where your code is deployed rapidly (multiple daily production deployments) and your architectural choices have a real impact.

  • Utilize AI tools and workflows to elevate the team's performance and capabilities.
