<div><h3>⚡About Amber</h3>Amber is an entirely new way to buy and sell power, designed for a world powered by renewable energy. We give customers direct access to the real-time wholesale electricity price as it varies every 5 mins and the technology to shift more of their energy usage to the times when cheaper renewables are available in the grid. It’s a cheaper way to buy power, a smarter way to sell power, and the fastest way for Australia to reach 100% renewable energy.We are a clear category leader in Australia for home battery automation and are growing rapidly (over 80k customers). We have also recently expanded into licensing our core technology to utilities overseas, including a partnership with E.ON Next in the UK.Amber is backed by top Australian and international investors including Square Peg, Main Sequence, Breakthrough Victoria, Commonwealth Bank, NRMA, Gentrack, ETF Partners (UK/Europe based), and E.ON Next.We are scaling rapidly and you’d be joining a team of over 200 committed to building a diverse, inclusive, and purpose-driven culture as we transform a major industry.Our products are reshaping home energy: Amber for Batteries cuts bills by exporting stored energy at wholesale prices of up to $20/kWh, and Amber for EVs enables the cheapest, cleanest charging. In 2026, we will push this even further with our new vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology.💻 About the roleWe are hiring engineers for our Tech Enablement team - a team that ensures our engineering staff are productive, secure, and supported in doing their best work. We are motivated by helping and unblocking others, and have skills that span documentation, deployment, release tooling, observability, incident management, reliability, continuous integration, and infrastructure.We use tools and vendors like CDK, Notion, GitHub and GitHub Actions, AWS and serverless, Snowflake, Expo, and Typescript.

Founded in 2017 by Chris Thompson and Dan Adams, Amber gives customers dynamic power prices that change depending on the real wholesale value of energy. Customers can pay less by charging your battery when energy is greener and cheaper as well as earn more by exporting when prices increase.
Combined with Amber's smart tech, solar and battery owners have the power to supercharge their savings, take control of their battery and make their energy work harder for them.
Amber is backed by some of Australia&rsquo;s best accelerators and investors, including EnergyLab (Australia&rsquo;s leading energy accelerator) and Startmate (Australia&rsquo;s leading tech accelerator). Investors include Blackbird, Square Peg, Main Sequence, Commonwealth Bank and Black Sheep Capital.&nbsp;
The company has won Startup Vic&rsquo;s Impact Pitch Night, for the best startup focused on making a positive social impact and been named Victorian Start-up of the Year.
