And the market as a whole benefits from lower origination costs and faster deployment.This role is about leading the technology that powers our transaction platform.

You will ensure our systems are scalable, trusted, and efficient as we grow to thousands of projects and billions in clean energy transactions.If you’re excited about scaling a marketplace that drives liquidity, efficiency, and trust in one of the most important markets of our time, we’d love to talk.<h3>Who we are</h3>Station A is a technology company reimagining how clean energy is bought and sold.
