Now Photoncycle is heading into thousands of Danish homes, and we are looking for a trainee who wants to help build the market from the ground up. Is that you?\n\nAbout PhotoncycleSolar panels produce plenty of power in summer and very little in winter, when we need it most. Photoncycle solves that problem: we store the energy in a tank in the ground next to the house, so the household can use it for electricity and heating all winter. Surplus power is sold on the electricity market, where it helps balance supply and demand. The household pays a fixed monthly fee, and we build, install and operate the system.\nWe are 25 employees with offices in Oslo and Copenhagen. In 2026 we raised a €15 million Series A led by NordicNinja and Voima Ventures. We are now moving from full-scale pilot to commercial rollout, and the first phase of our production plant is underway.\nPhotoncycle is a completely new technology, and Denmark is our first market.\n\nWhy this roleAs a trainee, you will be part of building Photoncycle's Danish operations, from research and permit processes to partner dialogues, pilot customers and events. You will work across the full breadth of a market launch and get hands-on experience with how a new energy technology is brought to market in Denmark.\nThe role is deliberately broad, and the scope will be tailored to the number of hours you work. Tasks will shift as the launch gets closer, and your responsibilities will grow with the role down the line.\n\nWhat you will doThis is a versatile, hands-on role that mixes research, relationships and the nuts-and-bolts work. You will report to Anne Clara Laugesen, General Manager of Photoncycle Denmark, and work closely with our colleagues in Oslo.\nTasks and responsibility will include:\nMarket build and operations support\nSupport our pilot customer programme, from first contact to onboarding\n\nFollow and assist with permit processes and dialogues with municipalities and authorities\n\nHelp build and maintain relationships with customers, partners and stakeholders\n\nTake part in preparing test sites and the first installations\n\nResearch and analysis\nDesk research on municipalities, funding schemes, partners and competitors\n\nMonitor funding and grant opportunities\n\nCollect and structure data and recurring customer questions for internal use\n\nEvents and meetings\nPractical planning of customer meetings, community events and site visits: invitations, sign-ups, venue, catering and follow-up\n\nPrepare material and logistics for conferences and external events the team attends\n\nWhat you bringWe imagine you being structured and comfortable juggling many small tasks at once. You take ownership, spot what needs to be done, and ask when something is unclear.\nWe expect you to:\nBe studying, or recently graduated, in a relevant field such as business, energy, engineering, public administration or similar\n\nWrite and speak Danish fluently and work comfortably in English\n\nBe confident with Office tools and quick to pick up new systems\n\nHandle confidential information, including customer data, with care\n\nIt is a plus if you:\nHave an interest in the energy transition, energy systems or the Danish energy market\n\nHave experience from a startup, student job or association work with admin or coordination\n\nAre used to working with AI tools\n\nYou don't need to be an energy expert. What matters most is that you enjoy building something new where the right answer isn't known yet – so apply even if you can't tick every box.\n\nWhat we offerA front-row seat to building a new energy company in Denmark ahead of a 2027 launch\n\nClose daily collaboration with the GM and real responsibility from day one\n\nInsight into regulation, permits, partnerships and go-to-market in the energy sector\n\nA small, international team with colleagues in Norway\n\nAn office in the heart of Copenhagen at BloxHub, with a great lunch setup and free coffee\n\nStart and applicationThe position can be set up in three ways: as a paid student job (15–37 hours a week), as an internship as part of your studies, or as virksomhedspraktik via your jobcentre if you have recently graduated and are currently unemployed. Hours and tasks are tailored to the arrangement. The start date is yesterday – or whenever you're ready, really.\nWe will be taking interviews as applications come in.\nPhotoncycle is committed to an inclusive workplace and hires based on skills, experience and potential. We encourage everyone interested to apply, regardless of gender, age, ethnic background, religion or disability.\nWe look forward to hearing from you!","description_format":"text","description_chars":4615,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"Denmark","iso":"DK","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Energy & Utilities","Solar Energy"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-20T23:20:15Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":62,"band":"ok","label":"Likely open","p_open":0.85,"p_active":0.73,"p_room":1,"age_days":20,"expected_fill_days":61,"reasons":["seen:20","win:early","comp:junior"],"computed_at":"2026-11-10T06:52:35Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/photon-cycle-trainee-market-build-operations-denmark","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/photon-cycle-trainee-market-build-operations-denmark.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-11T02:21:06Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":277,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-12T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":2143333},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=2143333"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fphoton-cycle-trainee-market-build-operations-denmark"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":2,"usd":0.2},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fphoton-cycle-trainee-market-build-operations-denmark"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fphoton-cycle-trainee-market-build-operations-denmark"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/photon-cycle-trainee-market-build-operations-denmark\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fphoton-cycle-trainee-market-build-operations-denmark"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":2962792}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"photoncycle.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":2962792},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
