CAREERS AT VARDANE

Help us build a better
home energy service.

We’re looking for experienced people who can help make solar, batteries and other home energy systems easier to manage after installation.

Vardane is preparing its first service in Ireland, and we’re building a small team to develop the technology, organise the work and plan how customers will be supported.

OUR FIRST OPPORTUNITIES

Where you could
help us get started.

Our first roles start with a small number of paid hours, so we can agree manageable work and see how we work together. We’re also inviting interest from aftercare specialists for a future project.

Founding Technical Lead

We’re looking for an experienced engineer who can help us decide what Vardane needs to build first, then build a small working example. You’ll work directly with the founder, explaining your choices as you go and leaving the work easy for someone else to understand and maintain.

Executive Assistant

We’re looking for someone who can help the founder stay on top of meetings, hiring and the things people have agreed to do. You’ll keep the details organised, follow up when something needs attention and make sure the next step is clear without needing to be reminded each time.

Expressions of interest

Solar Aftercare & Deployment Specialist

We’d like to hear from people who have helped installers and homeowners deal with solar or battery problems after installation. Your experience could help us design a practical aftercare service through a future paid project, although there is no confirmed start date or ongoing support position at this stage.

HOW WE WORK

Use your experience
to help shape Vardane.

Leon Kennedy leads Vardane’s commercial work and is looking for people who can take responsibility for the areas where they have more experience.

You should be comfortable making decisions within the work we’ve agreed, explaining why you recommend a particular approach and asking for input when something needs a wider decision.

More about Leon and Vardane

Know what you’re responsible for

We’ll agree what you’re responsible for and what needs to be achieved, so you can get on with the work without checking every small decision.

Choose what will work in practice

We value straightforward solutions that are easy to maintain, along with the judgement to say when something needs more time, information or specialist help.

Help others understand your work

By explaining your choices and keeping useful notes, you’ll help the rest of the team understand the work and continue it without relying on you for every answer.

A STRAIGHTFORWARD START

How we’ll get
to know each other.

We’d like to hear about something you’ve done and understand the part you played, using an example you can share without revealing confidential client or employer information.

  1. 01

    A short introduction

    Tell us about work you’ve done, the time you have available and why the role interests you, without having to prepare a cover letter.

  2. 02

    A useful conversation

    If your experience looks relevant, we’ll arrange a conversation about the work and how you would approach it, with a technical discussion where the role needs one.

  3. 03

    A paid first step

    If we decide to try working together, we’ll agree what you’ll do, how much time it should take and what you’ll be paid before you begin.

If you’re registering interest in future project work, we’ll review your experience and contact you when there is a suitable project to discuss.

THERE’S MORE TO COME

Don’t see a role
that fits?

Keep an eye on this page, as we plan to hire for more roles as Vardane grows. We’ll share new opportunities here when we’re ready to bring more people into the team.

Feel you could contribute to Vardane?

If you have experience, skills or an idea that could help us, we’d like to hear how you see yourself contributing. There may be a project, a future position or a conversation we can explore together, even if it doesn’t match a role listed above.
