Rust Job: Full-stack engineer (front-end focused)

Lumen Energy is automating clean energy deployment across the built environment.

The scope of the opportunity is massive: the roughly 6 million commercial buildings in the US are responsible for 16% of all greenhouse gas emissions. Most of them could save money and reduce emissions with solar, yet fewer than 4% have solar in place today.

We leverage software and data science to uncover the economically ideal “clean energy stack” for every building. Next, we make clean energy deployment widely accessible by abstracting away the complexity of an underlying marketplace of installers, financiers and confusing electrical jargon, creating a delightful, software driven experience for customers to simply click to deploy clean energy.

While this is an audacious scope, we believe that the combination of our powerful clean energy pricing engine, together with the end-to-end tools for deploying and managing clean energy, will unlock the clean energy transition from vision to action in commercial real estate.

Who We Are

We are a small team of scientists, engineers, designers and entrepreneurs committed to powering our world with clean energy. We build on experience at Stripe, Google X, Shopify, and US national labs. While we're early in our journey, we are already working with leaders in commercial real estate like Hines, Bridge Investment Group and Hamilton Zanze and are funded by exceptional investors like Lowercarbon Capital and Designer Fund.

We are a remote-first company, but get together in-person during quarterly company offsites.

Our Engineering Culture

We believe the best products are built in an inclusive and collaborative environment. We hire teammates who thrive on ownership, care deeply about impact and are naturally curious. We believe a startup’s advantages stem from speed and iteration, and a focus on outcomes for customers and teammates.
