That is the middle half of what comparable roles paid on this board over the last 90 days — 27 listings that did publish a figure, median $145k. It is not this employer's offer, and we have no idea what they pay. It is only what the rest of the market advertised.

hn-hiring

We're Australia's battery-backed electricity company. We fund, install and operate batteries on-site at small businesses, then supply their power at a firm, flat rate 20–40% below incumbents, making the economics work by optimising those batteries against wholesale prices. We're live with real customers. Team of six, backed by Systemiq and Black Nova; engineering includes Casey, who previously led Google engineering in Paris and Google Maps in Sydney.
We're AI-native: engineers, energy specialists and go-to-market colleagues all ship with coding agents. Each engineer owns a product end to end, from the commercial problem through to production. Flat structure, lots of ownership.
Areas you could own:
* Customer experience: quoting, onboarding and the customer app
* Metering and billing: turning high-volume interval data into accurate bills
* Energy-market and battery data: the market, weather and telemetry pipelines behind our decisions
* The agent-driven development platform the whole team builds on
Stack: TypeScript, React, Postgres, serverless. Intro chat, system design, an agentic build, then a day with the team.
