Today’s electricity system was not designed for rapid decarbonisation, AI-driven efficiency or fair access for the actual users - businesses and generators.\nWe’ve built the first AI native transaction infrastructure to reinvent how electricity is bought, sold and priced. Our technology is designed to cut out the inefficient fees, automate complex market flows, and bring transparency and fairness to energy transactions at scale.\nIn late 2025, after extraordinary growth, we closed a $75 million Series B - led by Lightspeed Venture Partners with participation from Albion, Atomico, Allianz, Hitachi Ventures, Hitachi Ventures, Schroders Capital and others - positioning us for global expansion, deeper product innovation and category leadership.\nWe’re scaling internationally and building toward a future where AI-driven infrastructure is foundational to electricity markets worldwide.\nSince launch, our modern utility product, known as RED, has already facilitated thousands of business customers and billions in energy transaction value, proving that modern software and AI can transform an industry built on legacy systems.\nAt tem, we’re not just building another energy company, we’re rearchitecting market infrastructure so that transparency, efficiency and sustainability become the default, not the exception.\nThe Role\nWe're hiring a Senior Software Engineer, Pricing.\nYou'll join the Pricing squad, the team behind the pricing engine at the heart of RED, tem's modern utility product. The systems you build price real energy contracts for businesses buying electricity and renewable generators selling it, so correctness shows up as money and speed shows up as trust.\nThis is a backend, data-heavy engineering role with a quant-y flavour. You'll help build our new Pricing API, make prices fast, accurate and understandable, and make sure that when we can't price something, we can always explain why.\nIn your first 12 months, you might:\nDesign and ship core slices of our new Pricing API, taking them from first design through to production.\n\nConsolidate pricing logic into one service with a clean boundary, keeping pricing behaviour stable throughout the move.\n\nBuild the detection and alerting that catches bad or slow prices before they ever reach a customer.\n\nGive our commercial team self-serve answers to \"why can't we price this?\".\n\nMake pricing measurably faster for every customer quote.\n\nResponsibilities\nBuild with impact: design and ship components of the Pricing API that price real energy contracts, owning work from design through to production.\n\nMake it fast: help bring the time to a first customer price down dramatically, without sacrificing accuracy.\n\nOwn reliability: build the error handling, observability and alerting that make pricing fail loudly and explainably, never silently.\n\nSharpen the boundaries: extract and consolidate pricing logic so the pricing engine owns its own behaviour end-to-end.\n\nClose the loop: take your turn handling live pricing questions and incidents, and turn what you learn into structural fixes.\n\nRequirements\nMust-Haves\nProduction backend Python: you have shipped and run an API in production and been on the hook when it broke.\n\nComfortable with FastAPI and SQL, and with data- and analytics-heavy systems where the correctness of numbers matters.\n\nProduct engineering nous: you ask what the price is for and who reads it, not just how to compute it.\n\nYou build with agents: Claude or similar is part of your daily workflow for writing, testing and reviewing code.\n\nYou can own a project end to end - scoping, delivery, quality - with a tech lead as a sounding board rather than a supervisor.\n\nDesirable\nDomain knowledge from fintech, energy pricing or neo-utilities, or ad-tech.\n\nExperience working inside or alongside machine learning teams.\n\nAWS and serverless patterns (Lambda, event-driven services, Postgres on RDS).\n\nPolars, or a taste for making numerical code fast.\n\nBenefits & Perks\nCompetitive salary - our current band for this role is [salary band] or equivalent in local currency.\n\nStock options so everyone has ownership in our mission.\n\n25 days holiday plus public holidays. Swap public holidays for the ones that matter most to you, and enjoy your birthday off.\n\nRemote first and flexible working, with clear core hours and no internal meetings on Friday afternoons.\n\nUp to GBP1,200 or EUR1,400 per year for your remote setup.\n\nUp to GBP150 or EUR170 per month for wellbeing.\n\nInterview Process\nFirst call with Jack on our Talent Team (30m)\n\nBehaviour Interview with the Hiring Manager (60 mins)\n\nTechnical Interview with the Team (75 mins). You'll meet with Engineers, discuss backend engineering for pricing systems, including a practical whiteboard exercise\n\nBar Raiser Interview with Senior stakeholder (45m)\n\nWe welcome applications from people of all backgrounds, experiences, and identities, including those that are traditionally underrepresented in the tech and energy sectors. If you’re excited about this role but not sure you meet every requirement, we’d still love to hear from you. Your unique perspective could be exactly what we’re looking for.","description_format":"text","description_chars":5527,"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":["Flexible schedule","Stock options"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"Germany","iso":"DE","kind":"region"},{"name":"France","iso":"FR","kind":"region"},{"name":"United Kingdom","iso":"GB","kind":"country"},{"name":"Austria","iso":"AT","kind":"region"},{"name":"Belgium","iso":"BE","kind":"region"},{"name":"Bulgaria","iso":"BG","kind":"region"},{"name":"Croatia","iso":"HR","kind":"region"},{"name":"Czech Republic","iso":"CZ","kind":"region"},{"name":"Denmark","iso":"DK","kind":"region"},{"name":"Finland","iso":"FI","kind":"region"},{"name":"Hungary","iso":"HU","kind":"region"},{"name":"Ireland","iso":"IE","kind":"region"},{"name":"Italy","iso":"IT","kind":"region"},{"name":"Netherlands","iso":"NL","kind":"region"},{"name":"Norway","iso":"NO","kind":"region"},{"name":"Poland","iso":"PL","kind":"region"},{"name":"Romania","iso":"RO","kind":"region"},{"name":"Spain","iso":"ES","kind":"region"},{"name":"Sweden","iso":"SE","kind":"region"},{"name":"Switzerland","iso":"CH","kind":"region"},{"name":"Estonia","iso":"EE","kind":"region"},{"name":"Greece","iso":"GR","kind":"region"},{"name":"Iceland","iso":"IS","kind":"region"},{"name":"Latvia","iso":"LV","kind":"region"},{"name":"Liechtenstein","iso":"LI","kind":"region"},{"name":"Lithuania","iso":"LT","kind":"region"},{"name":"Luxembourg","iso":"LU","kind":"region"},{"name":"Malta","iso":"MT","kind":"region"},{"name":"Portugal","iso":"PT","kind":"region"},{"name":"Slovakia","iso":"SK","kind":"region"},{"name":"Slovenia","iso":"SI","kind":"region"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Energy & Utilities"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-06T12:36:12Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":3,"expected_fill_days":58,"reasons":["conf:3","velocity","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-10-10T05:45:15Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":109122,"is_top_pay":false},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/tem-energy-senior-software-engineer-pricing","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/tem-energy-senior-software-engineer-pricing.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-12T03:17:21Z","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":5105,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-13T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"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":580},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=580"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Ftem-energy-senior-software-engineer-pricing"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"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%2Ftem-energy-senior-software-engineer-pricing"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"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%2Ftem-energy-senior-software-engineer-pricing"},{"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/tem-energy-senior-software-engineer-pricing\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Ftem-energy-senior-software-engineer-pricing"}]}
