Lumenaza stands for clear values: sustainability, diversity, and collaboration. We take pride in our diverse team and are committed to supporting women in tech.

You will receive thorough onboarding into the energy market processes and gain access to an exciting, future-proof industry. We know how complex the energy market can be, which is why we actively share our expertise to ensure you can succeed, regardless of your previous experience in the sector.

We invite you to join our growing development team as a Senior Software Engineer (Backend) in Berlin (m/f/d).

• Contribute to the energy transition: You’ll design and implement scalable software solutions enabling demand-based control, comprehensive monitoring, and profitable flexibility mechanisms for generation assets and battery storage systems — making a direct impact on the success of the energy transition.

• Shape complex systems: From concept and implementation to quality assurance — you’re involved in every step. You’ll work on the development of microservices handling large volumes of measurement, forecasting, and balancing data, and use observability measures to enhance transparency, stability, and scalability.

• Solve technical challenges: The energy market is complex and dynamic. You’ll develop robust and scalable solutions in Python and Django, tackling challenges such as asynchronous processing, domain modeling, and distributed systems, all while addressing demanding design and performance questions.

• Collaborate across teams: You’ll work closely with colleagues in backend, frontend, and DevOps, as well as Product Owners. Together, you’ll design innovative cloud solutions, share knowledge, and actively shape architecture decisions. You’ll collaborate within an agile Scrum environment, participating in sprint planning, reviews, and retrospectives to continuously improve both product and process.

• Stay curious and share knowledge: You keep up with current trends in software design, bring new ideas to the team, and contribute to the continuous evolution of our platform.

• Bridge legacy and future: You’ll help maintain existing systems while supporting their migration into modern microservice architectures, ensuring the sustainable development of our overall system landscape.

Do you want to help shape the energy industry of tomorrow? We value enthusiasm for sustainability over perfection — diversity and a willingness to learn are what count. Apply and help us shape the future.
