About this role

About Nomos

We strive to make energy free for European households. We achieve this by developing new energy products with Europe’s leading technology companies and embed energy as a cost-saving feature for electric vehicles, heat pumps, battery storage systems and more.

About the team

Started by Stefan and Nils in 2024, the Nomos team now consists of former researchers, founders and senior engineers united by a deep frustration of the current energy system and the vision to build a category leading enterprise out of Europe.

We strive to build a strong culture of effective communication, ownership and belonging. In this critical phase of our venture this translates to working in-person in Berlin Mitte with a group of people that value meritocracy, curiosity and craftsmanship.
 
# What you’ll do

Nomos operates in a heavily regulated industry and we take that responsibility seriously. You will build and lead our legal function as we develop new products, enter partnerships, and grow the company.

- Lead negotiations and own our contracts with partners, grid operators, and service providers.
- Own regulatory compliance and consumer protection, anticipating changes that affect our products and plans.
- Manage legal work across financing rounds, employment, and technology, coordinating specialist counsel where needed.
 
# Exciting challenges

- Build the function from scratch. Decide which work to bring in-house, where we need external counsel, and what we can standardise or automate. Build the contracts and processes we will rely on as Nomos grows.
- Follow the consequences through the business. A new product can change our obligations to households, our agreements with partners, and the way our software needs to work. Understand those connections and work through them before we commit.
 
# Who you are

- You can defend your judgement. You hold a state exam or equivalent qualification and have handled complex legal work in energy, another regulated industry, or a company that grew fast. You can explain your recommendation and the reasoning behind it.
- You read what others skim. You check definitions, cross-references, and exceptions. You spot where a small change in wording creates a different obligation and follow it through to what it means in practice.
- German and English, both fluent. You can negotiate and draft precise legal documents in either language.
 
# People you can reach out to

- Anne Roellgen
 
# Why join us?

- As an early member of our team you will shape the foundation of our company and benefit from the financial upside accordingly
- Solve complex challenges powering Europe's energy infrastructure
- No politics, instead passion, speed and customer obsession
- We have a clear vision to radically transform one of the world's largest industries by building a category leader from Europe
- Create the culture you always wanted. Actively shape our processes, setup and the way how we get things done
