What is Verse?

Organizations today are under growing pressure to navigate the transition to clean energy — not just to meet sustainability goals, but to manage risk, control costs, and build long-term resilience. Yet the complexity of energy markets and a lack of accessible tools have made it difficult for most companies to take meaningful action. Verse was created to change that.

Our mission is to make the case for clean energy irrefutable. Through our AI-powered platform, Aria, we help organizations plan, procure, and operate clean energy to achieve their financial and sustainability goals. Verse transforms clean energy ambition into action — giving businesses the clarity and confidence to lead in a rapidly evolving energy landscape.

The Role

As a Senior Software Engineer focusing on Data & AI / ML at Verse, you will drive the development and implementation of applications and pipelines across a diverse range of data sources including time series, text, and images. You will work closely with our Data Science team deploying energy forecasting and estimation models into production and create tools for structuring and organizing the data that feed these models. As an advanced technical leader in the Python ecosystem, teammates will look to you for best coding standards and conventions.

Additionally, your skills will guide the progression of internal generative AI tools and the evolution of our Aria Assistant product. You will leverage frontier foundation models such as OpenAI GPT, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, and Meta's Llama to build solutions that enhance our capabilities.

Key Responsibilities

• Foster a culture and mindset of well-designed systems, test-driven software, and transparent communication with a high caliber of mutual respect and consideration for stakeholders
• Read and write a lot of Python : implementing, maintaining, and promoting best practices and hygiene in our Python code repository for others to follow and emulate
• Develop, train, test, refine, and deploy forecast models in production
• Collaborate with our optimization and analytics team members to write shared libraries, design and implement robust solutions intended for high performance with large datasets and complex computations
• Ensure data quality and integrity throughout the data lifecycle
• Integrate internal and external user applications with frontier generative AI models
• Shape and guide the team’s AI / ML strategy with your technical input and execution
• Occasionally work alongside our platform and infrastructure engineers on various data flows and pipelines to support our product and internal operations
