Company

Founded in Berlin, autarc is a ~40 person start-up who were part of Y Combinator’s S24 batch in San Francisco. Our team consists of people in Sales, Tech and Operations, with the Engineering & Product department currently ~20 people, as we continue to grow throughout the year.

Role description

You'll be part of a newly formed team aimed at helping with international expansion: Services. On top of their monthly subscription, our customers can book additional services through autarc — such as government subsidy applications (e.g. KfW), energy performance certificates, and more. This area is scaling rapidly and we're hiring a dedicated PM to match.

We're looking at introducing a financing option for our customers that offers them a buy now, pay later option. That means we'll be looking to help our users in maximising their potential to install solar panels and heat pumps given homeowners that aren't in a position to spend all of their savings will be able to distribute their costs.

In addition there will be factoring tasks where our users will pay an amount in which autarc will take a cut later on. This is centred around B2B lending, in which we will need to conduct credit checks and perform underwriting tasks.

Other things you'll do will include:

Participate in roadmap defining and work alongside a dedicated PM
Build reliable async flows (webhooks, retries, idempotency, failure handling)
Build financing pipelines used in real installer workflows
Ship product-quality UX in React/Tailwind where needed, in close collaboration with Design
Instrument features with logs/metrics/tracing and improve reliability
Contribute to testing strategy across Frontend and Backend

This role is Fullstack but Frontend-leaning, with the split being approx. 60/40.

Requirements

2-4 years of professional experience in building SaaS
AI-literate in working with modern tooling
Strong Fullstack experience with TypeScript, React, Node and ideally NestJS
Ideally professional experience working Go and readiness to own new Go endpoints/services
Solid SQL/Postgres skills and familiarity with object storage
Product mindset: you can turn ambiguous requirements into stable, user-facing features
Based in Berlin with a willingness to work 3 days hybrid (office in Mitte)
Fluent in English (German is a plus)
