Work with us

Join us for an internship focused on advancing our local renewable production modelling. You’ll work directly with the founders on research and engineering problems that go straight into the product and into customer pilots.

What you’d work on

• Develop and improve ML models for local renewable production at the asset and portfolio level
• Explore probabilistic methods to quantify uncertainty in production estimates — ensembles, quantile regression, conditional generative models, calibration
• Stay close to recent research in ML for weather and renewables, and prototype new techniques against real benchmarks
• Build and maintain a scalable codebase across large-volume weather, SCADA, and market data — data pipelines, reproducible training, model serving
• Run experiments end-to-end, from hypothesis to deployment, with rigorous evaluation against production data

What we’re looking for

• Strong background in machine learning, ideally with applied experience in time series, spatiotemporal data, or probabilistic modelling
• Master’s-level or PhD candidate in computer science, applied mathematics, physics, engineering, or a related field
• Comfortable in Python (PyTorch in particular), with solid software engineering instincts — clean code, version control, reproducibility
• Experience with large geospatial or weather datasets (xarray, NetCDF, Zarr, Parquet) is a plus
• Background or strong interest in weather forecasting and/or energy markets is highly encouraged
• Self-directed, comfortable with ambiguity, able to drive a problem from research to production

How to apply

Email us your CV. Instead of a generic cover letter, we’d love a few personal answers to the questions below. Short is fine, and you don’t have to answer all of them — they’re just here to help us get to know you.

• What drew you to this role specifically? Why this kind of environment over a larger company or an established team?
• Which of your past projects or experiences feels most relevant to what we do, and why?
• What do you think you could bring to WindLens?
• Tell us about a personal project you’ve worked on. It doesn’t have to be technical or connected to your studies or work — just something you built, made, or pursued on your own.
• What’s one thing about how you think or work that someone who knows you well would say is distinctive about you?

Feel free to share any links (GitHub, blog, project page) that help us see your work.

Join us to help build the commercial and operational side of WindLens. You’ll work directly with the founders on everything that turns a research spin-off into a real company: pipeline, grants, decks, contracts, and the operations that keep it all moving.

What you’d work on

• Own commercial pipeline development across European renewable operators, traders, and BRPs: outreach, qualification, first-touch conversations, and support through pilots and contract negotiations
• Identify and manage non-dilutive funding opportunities (Innosuisse, EIC, EU and Swiss clean-tech programs) from application to reporting
• Build and iterate on pitch decks, one-pagers, and commercial material for different audiences: customers, investors, partners, grant reviewers
• Support fundraising: investor research, meeting prep, follow-ups, materials, cap table work
• Run day-to-day operations: contracts, legal coordination, financial planning, hiring support, and everything else that comes with a company at this stage
• Represent WindLens at industry events (smarter E, WindEnergy Hamburg, E-world) and help build our presence in the European energy ecosystem

What we’re looking for

• Real experience in the energy sector: utility, IPP, trader, BRP, renewable developer, or energy consultancy. You know what a BRP is and can hold a conversation about imbalance without a glossary
• Background in business development, commercial operations, or a founder-adjacent role. You’ve owned outreach, sold something complex, or built commercial processes from scratch
• Proactive, brings their own ideas, tries things without waiting to be told
• Comfortable with ambiguity and with a role that will evolve as the company grows
• Good writer: grants, decks, cold emails, contracts. Writing well is a large part of the job
• Fluent in English. French, German, or another European language is a strong plus given our customer base

This is a role with real ownership from day one. For the right person, there is a path toward meaningful equity and, over time, a potential co-founder position as WindLens grows.

How to apply

Apply through the form — upload your CV and, instead of a generic cover letter, answer a few personal questions. Short is fine, and you don’t have to answer all of them; they’re just here to help us get to know you.

• What drew you to this role specifically? Why an early-stage energy startup over a larger company or an established team?
• Which of your past experiences feels most relevant to what we do, and why?
• What do you think you could bring to WindLens?
• Tell us about something you’ve built, sold, or made happen that you’re proud of. It doesn’t have to be professional, just something you drove.
• What’s one thing about how you think or work that someone who knows you well would say is distinctive about you?
