1KOMMA5°

At 1KOMMA5°, we pursue a clear vision: Living on wind and sunlight forever for free. To make this a reality, we are building the energy system of the future with Heartbeat AI. Want to be part of it?We bring together regional craftsmanship and scalable software: We don't think of solar, batteries, heat pumps, and e-mobility as isolated components, but control them as an intelligent, integrated overall system in our virtual power plant. Directly connected to the electricity market - in real time, fully automated. This way, energy is used when it is available from renewables and particularly cost-effective. By 2030, our goal is to transition 1.5 million households to renewable energies. Over 3,000 people are working towards this every day, at more than 80 locations worldwide, from Finland to Australia.

Want to take responsibility and build solutions that truly matter? Apply now and help us shape the energy world of tomorrow.

Your mission

You will help shape the virtual assembly line team - our intelligence workflow engine building solutions in Growth and Operations to scale our products globally with maximum efficiency and quality. This is a builder role at the intersection of engineering and product: you co-define what gets built, ship it fast, and use AI as a force multiplier at every step.

As a (Senior) Product Engineer at 1KOMMA5°, you will take end-to-end ownership of features and workflows, making key decisions on architecture, integration layer, and solution design. You'll collaborate closely with product managers, designers, and engineers across teams to ship things that genuinely move the needle for our customers - and you won't be shy about challenging assumptions or proposing a better direction.

Our Stack:

• TypeScript, React / Next.js (frontend) and Node.js / NestJS (backend)
• AI-assisted development with Cursor and Claude Code
• GCP / Vercel, GitHub Actions (CI/CD)
• Linear, Notion, Figma, Miro

Key responsibilities include but are not limited to:

• Own feature development end-to-end, from problem framing to production deployment and long-term maintenance
• Build and integrate AI-powered product experiences using LLMs, agents, and tool-use patterns
• Define feature scope together with PMs - engage with the "why", not just the "what"
• Contribute to architectural decisions, API design, and AI integration patterns across the teams
• Keep feedback loops short: prototype, ship to real users, observe, adjust
• Push back when something doesn't make sense and propose better approaches

Your profile

• Strong fullstack proficiency in TypeScript, React / Next.js, and Node.js / NestJS
