Frontend Developer; AI Scale

Modo Energy is building AI-powered tools for understanding global energy markets — combining LLM agents, real-time market data and forecasting models, to create an AI Analyst that can reason about complex energy systems.

Our frontend is where massive datasets, predictive models, and AI systems become usable. We build fast, data‑heavy interfaces that allow users to explore energy markets, interrogate datasets, and interact with complex forecasting models in real time.

We are AI‑native and our tech stack is Type Script, React, and Next.js in a modern monorepo architecture, designed to support rapid feature development and AI‑assisted engineering workflows.

We seek a Frontend Engineer to help lead the architectural evolution of our UI. As part of a team, your main goal is to build a frontend architecture that supports rapid, AI‑assisted development.

We are looking for individuals who love product‑building and want to work with pace at a mission‑oriented start‑up.
