Enurgen is building DUET, a generational platform for utility-scale solar that turns raw fleet telemetry into recovered revenue. We close the gap between what conventional monitoring can see and what it can diagnose, and across a portfolio it adds up to a lot.

At our core is DUET (DUal-sided Energy Tracer), a 3D, physics-based energy yield model spun out of SUNLAB at the University of Ottawa and built on 10+ years of R&D.; The DUET Platform runs per-timestep model-vs-field comparisons across the full 30-year asset lifetime, from design through construction to operations, automating detection, prioritization, and reporting at the component level. An AI agent on top enriches the analysis with context and patterns across portfolios.

The software engineering work
The work is heavy on data: massive analytical queries over fleet-scale time-series, real-time streaming pipelines feeding live analytics, and dashboards that have to stay fast and responsive. This role owns the layer underneath all of that. When a query over a year of one-minute data comes back slow, it's yours.

What you’ll do

Build and evolve our ClickHouse-backed analytics layer: schema design, raw SQL, performance work on tables that don’t get smaller

Own the seams between our edge product, integration servers, and platform pipelines. They’re connected today, but by working code rather than any real contract, and making that coherent is a big part of the job

Evolve our real-time streaming capabilities: live analytics, operator-facing workflows, and the data backbone behind our shift into real-time, portfolio-wide operations





Extend loss attribution and issue detection workflows in collaboration with our R&D; team. This is where DUET’s physics meets the operator’s day-to-day

Help shape how we collect data on-site as latency requirements push us closer to the equipment. This is a direction we’re actively exploring, not a fixed roadmap

Work directly with our customers when the problem benefits from it

What we’re looking for
Required

5+ years (Senior) building production software, ideally data-intensive systems

Strong systems thinker. AI changed the leverage, so you architect solutions before reaching for code

Comfort with raw SQL and analytical query design. You reach for EXPLAIN before reaching for an ORM

Experience running time-series or event data at serious volume in production

Track record of building greenfield software in a startup-shaped environment: small team, fast iteration, real customers

Strong written and verbal communication, including with non-engineering stakeholders

Strong pluses (any one of these moves you up the list)

OLAP / columnar database experience. ClickHouse especially, or BigQuery, Snowflake, DuckDB

Experience shipping the same software to both cloud and on-prem deployments





Performance-sensitive systems work; HPC or low-latency backgrounds welcome

Proficiency in a lower-level language such as C++, Rust, or Go

On-site or edge data collection experience: OPC-UA subscriptions, industrial protocols, or shipping software into industrial environments

Not required

A solar or energy background. The domain is interesting: utility-scale plants are complex engineered systems and our customers are sophisticated. You’ll pick it up; we don’t expect you to walk in with it.

A particular language background. Our services are TypeScript, Go, and Python. What we’re hiring for here is data modeling and systems judgment, not which one you started in.

How we work

Small, fast increments. Getting something real in front of operators usually beats polishing it longer in isolation.

Tight feedback loops. We learn from short experiments with real customers, not speculative roadmaps.

Focus over breadth. Fewer things, done well.

Engineers paired with coding agents. AI is part of how we write code, debug, document, and analyze data. It’s built into the workflow, not bolted on the side.

High-touch and Slack-driven. Threads carry the work async, huddles when priorities move rapid. No meetings to fill calendars.

Small enough that nobody hides. Everyone ships to production, and everyone talks to customers.

Engineering and R&D; at the same table. The decisions are sharper for it.

Location
Remote or hybrid. Office in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Openness to occasional travel is a nice to have.
