About Allume

We're empowering millions of people to access clean, affordable energy.

We're a Melbourne-based technology company, and our world-first technology, SolShare, unlocks rooftop solar for apartment residents. This smart hardware connects a single rooftop solar system to multiple units and common areas, fairly distributing solar energy so everyone gets their fair share. SolShare helps reduce both energy bills and carbon emissions.

SolShare removes the technical and ownership barriers that have long prevented apartment households from accessing rooftop solar. We built it here in Melbourne, and it's now connected over 13,000 apartments across Australia, the UK and the US. We're doubling our installation base each year, and we're aiming to connect over 100,000 apartments by 2029. SolShare now also brings shared battery optimisation to apartment buildings.

We're growing quickly, and our technology is becoming more capable as we scale. That means we need outstanding people to help us build what comes next.

Reporting to our Head of Systems & Integration in the product development team, you’ll play a key technical role in making sure our products work well together, are reliable and do what apartment residents and installers need. You’ll turn stakeholder needs into clear requirements, guide design integration and risk analysis across disciplines, then lead the verification and validation (V&V;) that proves our products perform in the field for apartment residents, installers and other stakeholders.

This role suits a hands‑on engineer who enjoys solving practical problems, making risk‑based trade‑offs and working across engineering disciplines – and seeing your work help apartment residents access clean, affordable energy. You’ll be part of a collaborative team and contribute throughout the product development lifecycle.

What you’ll do

- Requirements & interface mapping: Translate stakeholder needs into clear functional system requirements, system and interface control documents, and technical feasibility analyses across Allume’s product suite.
- Cross-disciplinary technical integration: Facilitate design decisions across the product team by implementing system requirements, evaluating technical risks, and ensuring testability across product development disciplines.
- Risk & reliability engineering: Lead hazard analysis and risk assessment (HARA), FMEA/FMECA and reliability activities – from accelerated life testing to field performance analysis and root‑cause investigations.
