Your role

Fastned aims to accelerate the transition towards sustainable mobility by giving freedom to electric drivers. As a Senior Backend Engineer in the Operator team, you will help build and evolve the software that enables Fastned to operate one of Europe’s most reliable fast-charging networks.

This role is ideal for an experienced engineer who enjoys taking ownership, navigating ambiguity and turning complex operational challenges into pragmatic, reliable solutions.

Your overall responsibilities include

• Designing, developing, testing and reviewing reusable, maintainable and scalable code for Revolt Admin and Fastned’s operational platforms;

• Delivering core Operator milestones that improve Revolt Admin, reliability of Fastned’s charging infrastructure;

• Working AI-first: using AI-augmented engineering, agentic workflows and AI tooling as a natural part of how you design, build, test and review, with judgement for where AI is a multiplier and where humans stay in the loop;

• Taking ownership from discovery to post-production;

• Taking operational responsibility for what you build, including monitoring, alerting and incident analysis;

• Helping improve engineering methodologies and best practices, and mentoring others as a senior engineer and technical sparring partner in the Operator team.
