We’re a lean team that ships quickly and builds closely with our users. If you want to work on meaningful technology with immediate real-world impact, BuildQ is the place to do it.

The Role‍
We’re looking for a Full-Stack Software Engineer who can help us tame complexity and build scalable solutions across our platform. You’ll design and ship features end-to-end—from database schema to API design to React UI—while balancing performance, flexibility, and reliability.

‍What You’ll Do

Help design and select solutions to product challenges that balance technical tradeoffs and deliver customer value.
Contribute high-quality code across the stack and actively participate in code reviews and design discussions.
Explore new technology areas, including the application of AI to renewable energy workflows and document intelligence.
Push our engineering culture to be even more nimble, efficient, and collaborative by drawing on your range of past experience and a team mindset.
Get up to speed on the problem domain of renewable energy project development; bring ideas for product features and high-leverage infrastructure investments.
Build systems that process complex data, enable real-time collaboration, and surface intelligent insights.
Make architectural decisions about data models, API contracts, and system design that scale with our growth.
Work closely with our Head of Product to scope features, assess feasibility, and suggest technical improvements that unlock new capabilities.
