We have received media recognition and are expanding our engineering team with a founding AI / ML Engineer to lead a new product line.

This role includes salary and stock options. Salary is geographically adjusted.

We are looking for a hands-on engineer who will contribute technically and drive product development in a fast-moving startup environment.

  • Build and maintain a supervisory agent layer for evaluation, error handling, and memory management across tasks
  • Integrate the system with external tools (Helioscope, Paces, Energy Toolbase), vector databases, and structured document pipelines
  • Lead orchestration of LLMs and APIs, including LangChain, RAG pipelines, and commercial models (OpenAI, Claude, Manus)
  • Own deployment, monitoring, and continuous improvement cycles to ensure reliability, scalability, and compliance with performance and safety requirements

What we’re looking for

This is not a management role . You’ll need to be hands-on, with a strong bias toward action, problem-solving, and aligning work with Climatize business and product goals.

Basic Qualifications

  • 7+ years of professional software engineering or applied ML experience, with 2+ years building production AI agents or multi-agent systems
  • Expertise in orchestrating LLMs with APIs, including LangChain and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG)
  • Proven track record in designing and delivering autonomous AI system architectures with measurable reliability
  • Additional Background

  • Clear understanding of distinctions between tool-use, agentic reasoning, and autonomous execution
  • Preferred : experience with solar design tools (Helioscope, PVSyst, Aurora), geospatial / energy data workflows, or project finance
  • Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience integrating solar and energy system design tools (Helioscope, PVSyst, SAM, Energy Toolbase) into automated workflows
  • Familiarity with permitting, interconnection, and compliance processes in distributed energy projects
  • Background in renewable energy, infrastructure, or climate technology product development
  • Proficiency with vector databases, RAG architectures, and hybrid retrieval systems
  • Experience automating document workflows (OCR, templating, compliance reporting)
  • Track record working in early-stage startups or entrepreneurial environments with high technical autonomy
  • Interview Process

    We’ll ask questions to understand your motivations and passion for tackling climate change. If needed, we’ll schedule additional time so we can get to know each other well. We want this to be a mutual fit.

    Format we plan to follow :

  • Screening Call with Will (CEO & Co-Founder)
  • Technical Screening Call with Shaun (VP, Engineering)
  • Technical design challenge – 4 days
  • Culture fit meetings with Alba (COO & Co-Founder) and Will (CEO & Co-Founder)
  • About Climatize

    We value passion for environmental stewardship, diversity, transparency, ownership, and bold thinking that translates into purposeful action. We aim to create a better world through engineering excellence.
