<div><b style="font-size:10.5pt;">About Amber</b></div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size:10.5pt;">Amber is an entirely new way to buy and sell power, designed for a world powered by renewable energy. We give customers direct access to the real-time wholesale electricity price as it varies every 5 mins and the technology to shift more of their energy usage to the times when cheaper renewables are available in the grid. It’s a cheaper way to buy power, a smarter way to sell power, and the fastest way for Australia to reach 100% renewable energy. </span></div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size:10.5pt;">We are a clear category leader in Australia for home battery automation and growing rapidly (over 50k customers). We have also recently expanded into licensing our core technology to utilities overseas, including a partnership with E.ON Next in the UK. </span></div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size:10.5pt;">Amber is backed by top Australian and international investors including Square Peg, Main Sequence, Breakthrough Victoria, Commonwealth Bank, NRMA, Gentrack, ETF Partners (UK/Europe based), and E.ON Next.</span></div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size:10.5pt;">We are scaling rapidly and you would be joining a 175-person team committed to building a diverse, inclusive, and purpose-driven culture as we transform a major industry. Our products are reshaping home energy: Amber for Batteries cuts bills by exporting stored energy at wholesale prices of up to $19/kWh, and Amber for EVs enables the cheapest, cleanest charging. In 2026, we will push this even further with our new vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology.</span></div><div><br></div><div><b style="font-size:10.5pt;">About the Role</b></div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size:10.5pt;">Looking for a job at a purpose driven start up?

<p>Founded in 2017 by Chris Thompson and Dan Adams, Amber gives customers dynamic power prices that change depending on the real wholesale value of energy. Customers can pay less by charging your battery when energy is greener and cheaper as well as earn more by exporting when prices increase.</p>
<p>Combined with Amber's smart tech, solar and battery owners have the power to supercharge their savings, take control of their battery and make their energy work harder for them.</p>
<p>Amber is backed by some of Australia&rsquo;s best accelerators and investors, including EnergyLab (Australia&rsquo;s leading energy accelerator) and Startmate (Australia&rsquo;s leading tech accelerator). Investors include Blackbird, Square Peg, Main Sequence, Commonwealth Bank and Black Sheep Capital.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The company has won Startup Vic&rsquo;s Impact Pitch Night, for the best startup focused on making a positive social impact and been named Victorian Start-up of the Year.</p>
