About Axle Careers

At Axle Energy, we’re building the infrastructure that will underpin the decarbonised energy system. Our software moves energy usage to times when electricity is cheap and green, by controlling vehicle charging, heating systems, inverters and home batteries. We control hundreds of thousands of energy assets. We’re building in a legacy industry and moving gigawatt-hours of electrons in the real world, but we operate at lightning speed, and we’re growing the team to meet customer demand. We’re proud to be supported by world-leading investors, including Energize Capital and Accel. Read more about what we’re building here. France is one of the most important flexibility markets in Europe. This role is critical to accelerating Axle’s growth in France. About the role Axle has quickly become the leader in our operational markets, and we’re now looking to expand our reach in France. At the core of our market expansion plans is market analysis. To maximise future revenue, we spend a lot of time understanding the value of flexibility in power markets around the world. We are looking for a technical individual (data scientist, analyst or engineer) with strong knowledge of the French electricity markets and an instinct for commercial value. You will become Axle’s internal expert on French power markets: understanding the market rules, modelling the value, and building relationships with system operators and regulators. We’re scrappy about method and rigorous about conclusions. You will speak fluent French and Englis
