#### Bring Europe's grid-scale batteries online
We're looking for an AI Engineer (Asset Onboarding) to bring new battery assets and hybrid renewable parks onto Capalo Zeus VPP™, our virtual power plant that forecasts, optimizes, bids, dispatches, and operates grid-scale battery storage across European electricity markets.
Onboarding is where our platform meets the real world. Every new asset comes with its own hardware, integration specs, and market context, and connecting it correctly is what lets it start trading and dispatching safely.
This role sits right at that point
technical enough to work through integration specs and test connections, and close enough to customers to keep onboarding moving.
It's also an AI-forward role. We expect you to use AI tools to move faster across everything you do, from reading specs to writing and checking code to drafting customer updates. That's core to how the team works, not a nice-to-have.
#### About Capalo AI
Capalo AI develops software that turns grid-scale batteries and hybrid renewable parks into actively traded energy assets through Capalo Zeus VPP™, our fully managed virtual power plant for forecasting, optimization, trading, dispatch, and operational control.
Zeus VPP operates continuously across European electricity markets, integrating with wholesale, balancing, and ancillary service markets while coordinating state-of-charge-aware dispatch across battery portfolios.
#### What you'll work on
- Onboard new battery assets and hybrid parks onto Zeus VPP, from first integration through to live operation
- Work through integration specs and asset documentation and turn them into working, tested connections
Test integrations end to end
verify data flows, command delivery, and dispatch behavior before assets go live
- Communicate with customers and asset-side partners to gather what's needed, close gaps, and keep onboarding on track
- Write and adapt code where it's needed for integrations, tooling, and testing
- Use AI tools throughout to work faster while keeping quality high
- Work across the production team's tasks, pitching in wherever onboarding and operations need support
#### What we're looking for
##### Required
Experience in a hands-on technical role
integrations, QA or testing, implementation or solutions engineering, technical support, or similar
- Comfort reading technical documentation and integration specs and turning them into working setups
A testing mindset
methodical, detail-oriented, and careful about correctness
- Strong communication, including working directly with customers or external partners
AI-capable
you already use AI tools to do your work faster and better, and you want to push that further
- Coding ability (Python)
##### Nice to have
- Exposure to energy markets, electricity markets, battery storage, or grid services
- Industrial or machine-to-machine protocols (MQTT, IEC-104, Modbus, SCADA)
- Production experience with AWS or another major cloud platform
- Experience in a startup or another fast-moving, ambiguous environment
#### Why Capalo AI
- Real-world impact. The assets you onboard go on to trade and dispatch in European electricity markets.
- Variety and ownership. You'll own onboarding end to end and get real exposure to the broader production work that keeps assets running.
- AI-forward by default. We build AI into how we work, and this role is a chance to push that further.
- A growing domain. Battery storage is becoming critical infrastructure for the energy transition, and we're building the software that enables it.
