About Working at envelio
Too easy is boring! Together, we are on a mission to drive forward the energy transition. We love what we do, and we are unafraid to dive in. We believe in taking ownership of our work and in continuously growing and evolving. In short : own it, love it, grow with it.
We are a humble team of coffee and maté lovers with over 20 nationalities. With our geek humor, our love for emojis and random facts is only natural. Over 150 envelians are already on board. Dive in and thrive!
Your Role
As Senior Expert - Energy Grid Solver & Calculations (all genders) you will be part of an engineering squad with strong knowledge of electrical engineering, coding, databases, and software architecture.Together, you drive the topics surrounding electrical power system engineering and electrical / mathematical models and algorithms, have an impact on the experience of our users, our organization, and our engineering practices. A particular focus lies on models and calculation methods / mathematical solver for asymmetric grid structures and related components.
How You Make an Impact
- You are part of a cross-functional department and team (backend, frontend, DevOpsdevelopers, design andproductmanager) and develop state of the art electrical engineering related applications which bringeffectivecustomer value
- Youdesign,enhanceand implementelectrical engineering workflows andmathematicalsolversin accordancewiththe current state of technologyandbestpractices
- You are part of the conceptualizing and developing of professional backend solutions to continuously evolveour product in an agile working environmenttogether with the other cross-functional squads in the engineering department
Your Profile
Perfection is a myth! We’re more interested in the human behind the screen, so think of these criteria as helpful directions — we're excited to see how your unique skills might fit in.
- You have a background in electrical engineering, with a profound knowledge of the electrical distribution system and its structure and equipment modeling (e.g. conductor modeling including couplings, transformer modeling with internal wiring and core effects, earthing concepts & equipment. Experience with asymmetric elements like center-tapped / split-phase transformers and transformer banks is a plus.
- You have profound knowledge about and experience with the implementation of calculation methods for grid calculations (multiple power flow formulations symmetric and multiphase, short-circuit / fault calculations). Ideally, you are knowledgeable about state estimation and general optimization problems.
- You have profound (practical) experience in programming - 5 years or more - in the contextof electrical engineeringand mathematicalalgorithms (Python,ideally also C++, Go or Rust), software design and architecture principles in context of large-scale software projects.

About us
Intelligent grids for a sustainable future worldwide — this is our vision! Therefore, we are building the digital hub for the future of power grid management : The Intelligent Grid Platform (IGP). The IGP is the core of our software as a service solution. It’s our ambition to make the IGP and envelio 1 % better everyday. Grow with us!
As a remote-first company, we let you decide how much you want to work remotely – from 0% to 100%. Whether you live in Cologne or Aachen, Bonn or Berlin, Munich or Castrop-Rauxel; all you need is internet! You can also work from abroad for up to three months per year. Since 2017, we have built a diverse international team, with English as our company language.
