About Limejump
Optimising a 100% renewable energy future is our vision.
Limejump is a technology platform that manages a large renewable energy network. Our portfolio delivers clean energy to businesses and homes, using renewables and stored energy when it’s needed to meet demand.
We connect and manage 100% renewable energy through the intelligent control of renewable generators, such as wind turbines and solar panels. We work closely with renewable asset owners, buying their energy and then selling it onto the UK’s grid, giving them simple access to the power market. But, the sun isn’t always shining and the wind isn’t always blowing. We must therefore capture energy for times when there is high demand. By harnessing big data and renewable technology, we accelerate the UK’s transition to net zero carbon emissions.
The Role
As a member of the scheduling team, you would be working at the heart of the limejump platform. The team’s focus is to aid Limejump’s scaling ambitions by automating the translation of traded market positions into instructions for assets such as batteries.
You will be joining an enthusiastic team of 3 people who enjoy what they do. Alongside delivering clean, well tested, understandable code you would be spending time getting into the finer details of the energy industry domain. The team regularly spends time together understanding the ins and outs of National Grid services systems that balance energy supply and demand.
This team regularly must solve problems that are unsolved elsewhere. The changes required to decarbonise the UK power grid are immense, and we need a lot of intelligent software to do this. One example of these unsolved problems is getting hundreds of individual batteries to behave with the same stability as a large coal fired power plant.
The team has a commitment to continuous improvement. They hold regular retrospectives, participate in blameless postmortems and hold a regular developer session where they address how they are advancing towards the goal of quality working software.

Working Pattern
Limejump is following government guidelines closely as we continue to work remotely from home. Once colleagues are welcomed back into the office later in the year we will be working off a hybrid model of 2 days office / 3 days from home.

Our Hiring Process
Our process typically consists of an initial screening call with the hiring manager and a remote face to face interview with the team. We don’t ask brain teasers or trick questions, and while we do like exploring problems on a whiteboard, we won’t make you code on one.

Limejump values equality and diversity, and we welcome applications from candidates regardless of sex, race, disability, age, sexual orientation, gender reassignment, gender identity, religion or belief, marital status, or pregnancy and maternity.
