About

About Baringa:

We set out to build the world’s most trusted consulting firm – creating lasting impact for clients and pioneering a positive, people-first way of working. We work with everyone from FTSE 100 names to bright new start-ups, in every sector.

You’ll find us collaborating shoulder-to-shoulder with our clients, from the big picture right down to the detail: helping them define their strategy, deliver complex change, spot the right commercial opportunities, manage risk, or bring their purpose and sustainability goals to life. Our clients love how we get to know what makes their organisations tick – slotting seamlessly into their teams and being proudly geeky about solving their challenges.

We have hubs in Europe, the US, Asia and Australia, and we work all around the world - from a wind farm in Wyoming to a boardroom in Berlin. Find us wherever there's a challenge to be tackled and an impact to be made.

Our Market, Advisory and Analytics practice are looking for experienced Software Engineers to join the team.

Baringa are world leaders in modelling energy markets and using the insights these models provide to drive change in a decarbonising energy industry. We deal with highly varied modelling, data, and processing - everything from kilobytes of academic papers to terabytes of hourly scenario projections for 50+ years.

Our staff come from diverse backgrounds, based across multiple geographies, and utilise a variety of technologies, tools and analytical modelling approaches. They need rapid access to data, analytics outputs, and processing through GUIs, APIs and other systems, whilst being given the confidence that everything is compliant, licenced and well-governed. Our scale and model complexity has now reached a point that to continue to achieve our business vision, we are building a dedicated global Platform team.

We are looking for experienced software engineers to join as core members of this team to help design, implement and support the tools that will be fundamental to Baringa’s ongoing growth and success.

This will be a high calibre team, where curiosity and a thirst to understand the problem space is not just encouraged, but prioritised. There will be a range of engineering challenges to solve at all levels, requiring the flexibility to adopt the right technology for a given problem space. Our next generation platform will be core to driving significant improvements to the lives and capabilities of our Baringa colleagues in the energy modelling space. Successful candidates will be given responsibility and freedom from day one, trusted to challenge and be challenged in turn, in an environment that rewards creativity and entrepreneurship as we build the foundations for Baringa’s future.

Come and join us to be part of the energy transition, the defining challenge of our lifetimes, where your technical skills and experience can have real impact.

What You Will Be Doing

We are looking for experienced software engineers to become core members of the new Platform team, working closely with the Engineering Lead. You will be working within our Energy and Resources group to:

  • Actively contribute to the design, build and ongoing development of a new data platform, with associated tools and software – this will be almost entirely greenfield opportunities to create a holistic user experience for Baringa staff. You will be a core engineer of the team, led by the Engineering Lead, with a hand in building every part of the system from its cloud-based hosting through to its user interfaces, shared libraries/plugins and automated testing frameworks.
  • Support the Engineering Lead as we engage tool developers, energy system modelers, client facing energy experts, and users across the business to build a platform and supporting toolchain that fulfils the needs of our Baringa colleagues.
  • Undertake the development, automated testing and deployment of the new platform, following best practices to ensure that quality, reliability and monitoring is built-in from inception.
  • Support the building of a DevOps pipeline with robust CI and CD practices, with a focus on evolving our processes to improve our team’s engineering experience.
  • Engage in the team’s agile development approach, from refinement through to demonstration and feedback, helping to continuously improve our team’s processes as we grow and mature.

In addition to this, we have introduced our 5-Year Recharge benefit which allows all employees an additional 2 weeks of paid leave after 5 years continuous service.
  • Flexible Working: We know that the ‘ideal’ work-life balance will vary from person to person and change at different stages of our working lives. To accommodate this, we have implemented a hybrid working policy and introduced more flexibility around taking unpaid leave.
  • Corporate Responsibility Days: Our world is important to us, so all our employees get 3 every year to help social and environmental causes and increase our impact on the communities that mean the most to us.
