****************************************************************

Ezra is a venture-backed startup building at the intersection of sustainable finance and artificial intelligence. We're building a platform to accelerate capital deployment into climate solutions and other world-positive investments.

I’m Rob, the CTO, and we’re looking for multiple seasoned, full-stack(backend, frontend, and devops) Senior+ Engineers (8+ years exp) to significantly contribute to the development and scaling of our core platform. We are specifically looking for teammates in Central and South America (LATAM) who can work US Eastern hours. This is a high-autonomy role for a proven generalist who is deeply product-focused and takes complete ownership of features from concept to production.

The Role:

Drive technical delivery of full-stack features end-to-end, collaborating with Product and Design to define requirements and ensure engineering quality.

Design and develop scalable components and APIs across our backend and frontend.

Work to integrate, serve, and iterate on model-powered features and RAG systems.

Contribute to system architecture decisions and the evolution of our infrastructure.

You must have significant production Python experience.

Stack: Python (FastAPI), Typescript, Next.js, React, AWS, Terraform, PostgreSQL (SQLAlchemy).

Electric Twin builds simulations of real customer audiences, so teams can test decisions before shipping them — fast, safely, and at scale.

We’re a small, fast-growing team backed by top investors and operators, working with real clients on real problems. We’re hiring engineers (and other roles) who want high ownership, meaningful impact, and to help shape both the product and the company as we grow.

What sucked the last time you rented a house or flat? Come and fix it.

OpenRent is a force for good in an industry tarnished by rip-off agencies. Enabled by an unrelenting focus on technology, we let more properties than any agency in the UK. In the last 12m we let over £50 billion worth of property, to over 8 million registered users, without ever charging any admin fees.

You'll be working on solving every aspect of the rental journey, from models to predict the right price of a property, to building the future of property management, all to help tenants find their dream home, and landlords their ideal tenant.

We're VC backed, profitable, and have plenty of ambition to maintain our fast growth in this absolutely massive market.

Roles currently available:

- Lead Product Designer | Equity | 110k+ (based on experience) + quarterly bonus

- Senior Full-Stack Engineer | Equity | 75k-110k+ (based on experience) + quarterly bonus

We’re building a distributed, software-defined power plant: buildings, batteries, EVs, and on-site generation buying and selling power in real time. Think cloud control plane + embedded hardware + energy markets.

Small, high-performing team. No layers. You’ll own systems end-to-end: design → deploy → on-call.

We’re looking for *fungible generalists*, not narrow specialists. Strong fit if you’re comfortable with: - AWS-heavy backend work (Lambda, APIs, GraphQL, data pipelines) - Operating real-time production systems - Python / TypeScript (Rust a plus)

Depending on fit, you might work on: - Telemetry & control over unreliable networks - Embedded Linux / RTUs (Modbus, BACnet, DNP3) - Market-facing systems and optimization - Operator UIs with real-time streams (React)

Requirements: - Strong production experience - Systems mindset, bias to shipping - Willing to be onsite 5 days/week at Newlab (Brooklyn Navy Yard) - Not remote

Fast pace, direct feedback, real ownership. This is not a 9–5.
