About Metris Energy

At Metris, we're on a mission to accelerate the energy transition by helping solar owners manage their asset(s) autonomously. Today, our platform delivers real-time data on 100s of solar projects across the UK and automates time-consuming tasks involved in solar management such as monitoring, fault detection, reporting and billing. Next, Metris is building proprietary AI to deliver autonomous operation of small-scale renewables.

The Role

We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer with strong experience in data-intensive systems to join our team. You’ll bring a solid grounding in data processing and architecture, and will play a key role in maintaining data integrity across the Metris platform. This role will define and own our data architecture, connecting to hundreds of renewable energy assets — storing, transforming and aggregating millions of rows of data — we also expect that over time you will also contribute to other parts of the Metris product as the business continues to grow and evolve into new products and markets.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives in early-stage environments, enjoys shaping systems from the ground up, and wants to work on data-rich challenges that span from backend systems to customer-facing features.

What You'll Do

• Own platform-wide data integrity: Design and maintain core data flows and pipelines that ensure reliable, accurate sensor and meter data.
• Build software that handles complex data: From ingestion to transformation to visualisation, you’ll work across the stack to make our data usable and valuable.
• Collaborate across teams: Partner with Product, Engineering, and Data Science to ensure our platform supports AI-driven features, meaningful visualisations, and customer insights.
• Contribute to the product roadmap: Use your technical expertise and understanding of customer needs to shape new features and improvements.
• Ensure robustness and consistency: Ensure all systems you design are fault-tolerant, scalable and correct using appropriate architecture and testing approaches.
