About the role
Translated into English from German by Korum. The employer's original wording is on their site.
Our goal is a solar system on every roof, a storage battery in every house and an electric car in every garage. Enpal makes this possible with an integrated overall solution for decentralised energy - from solar systems and battery storage through wallboxes and smart meters to heat pumps. At the heart of it is our AI-powered platform Enpal.One+, which intelligently connects thousands of systems and efficiently optimises electricity purchase and feed-in on the energy market.
Are you ready for solutions that are more than just a promise and bring real quality of life to thousands of households every day? What you design at Enpal delivers clean electricity tomorrow and sustainably changes how we use energy.
