M-KOPA Solar provides solar energy systems for lighting and television to customers in emerging markets. Our systems are sold on credit and customers' loan payments are enforced via embedded software running that enable/disable the systems based on payments. Once a customer has finished paying for their system they own it outright and remote controls are disabled.
We currently have a customer base of over 700,000 households in 4 markets and are growing quickly. While the impact of the pandemic on our core business will be uncertain, we think there is more merit than ever in the social mission of providing our users with systems that make their homes a more pleasant and safer place to be, as well as in providing TVs and radios that can provide lifesaving public health information. We are also well capitalized and in a stable position financially.
Our engineering team is fully remote, but we currently only hire in the GMT-1 to GMT+3 timezone range to allow for a high degree of synchronous interaction (put differently: West Africa to Eastern Europe, North Pole to South Pole).
We are currently looking for a variety of senior .NET engineering and engineering management roles, so if you have that background/interest please reach out. We are also looking very seriously for a senior infrastructure/devops manager with experience on large Azure deployments.
