What will I be doing?
You’ll join the team building Kaluza’s Energy Retail platform, a SaaS product modernising how energy retailers operate globally.
This is a frontend focused role centred on large scale React applications used by both customers and internal teams. You’ll design, build, and evolve complex user interfaces that sit on top of high volume, distributed systems. The frontend is a critical part of how customers experience Kaluza’s platform, and engineering quality is a priority.
We’re looking for engineers who are comfortable owning significant areas of the frontend, contributing to technical decisions, and improving systems over time, not just delivering tickets.
