Want to grow your backend skills while working on meaningful climate technology?
The software you build will support organisations working to better monitor infrastructure, improve operational safety, and accelerate the transition to a low-carbon future.
This is an opportunity to work on real-world systems that help organisations make smarter, more sustainable decisions.
The Company
We’re working with a growing climate tech company developing digital platforms that help organisations better understand and manage complex infrastructure systems.
Their technology brings together sensor data, cloud platforms, analytics, and geospatial insights to provide greater visibility into real-world operations. By combining modern software engineering with environmental innovation, the company is helping drive more efficient and sustainable infrastructure management.
The Role
We’re looking for a Java Software Engineer to join a collaborative backend team and help develop the cloud-based platforms behind these systems.
You’ll work alongside experienced engineers contributing to backend services that process operational, sensor, and geospatial data. This is a hands‑on role where you’ll write production code, learn modern engineering practices, and gradually take on more responsibility as your experience grows.
You’ll also gain exposure to how systems operate in production, occasionally supporting investigations into live issues and learning how reliability and performance are managed at scale.
What Success Looks Like
* Delivering well‑tested Java features and API endpoints
* Applying best practices around code quality and system design
* Contributing to reliable and regular platform releases
* Developing your understanding of cloud infrastructure, data pipelines, and distributed systems
* Seeing your work support technology that enables more sustainable infrastructure management
What We’re Looking For
We’re looking for someone with a solid foundation in backend development, a strong desire to learn, and an interest in climate‑focused technology.
* 3+ years of commercial Java development experience
* Experience building or contributing to RESTful APIs
* Working knowledge of SQL databases
* Exposure to cloud environments (Azure preferred, others considered)
* Familiarity with version control, CI/CD pipelines, and automated testing
* Strong communication skills and a collaborative mindset
* Interest in data‑heavy, geospatial, or analytics‑driven systems
* Some exposure to containers or microservices
* Curiosity about environmental, infrastructure, or sustainability‑focused technology
* Motivation to grow into a more senior engineering role over time
Why Join?
This is an opportunity to join a purpose‑driven climate tech company where your work contributes to solving real‑world challenges.
You’ll help build core backend systems, develop modern cloud‑based platforms, and collaborate with engineers and product teams working on meaningful environmental technology.
You’ll also get
* Hybrid working with flexibility in a Bristol‑based team
* Salary up to £60,000
* Pension contributions
* 25 days holiday + 8 bank holidays
* Participation in an EMI share scheme
If you’re a Java engineer looking to develop your skills while working on impactful technology, this is a great opportunity to work on systems helping organisations operate more sustainably.
