About Alipes

Alipes aims to support liquid electricity markets and free flow of energy, which are crucial to facilitate the transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources, thereby promoting a sustainable future.

About the Job

You will be a part of a dynamic team whose primary responsibility is to develop new strategies and ensure that all algorithms and systems run smoothly on a daily basis.
