At 1KOMMA5°, we pursue a clear vision: Living on wind and sunlight forever for free To make this a reality, we are building the energy system of the future with Heartbeat AI. Want to be part of it-We bring together regional craftsmanship and scalable software: We don't think of solar, batteries, heat pumps, and e-mobility as isolated components, but control them as an intelligent, integrated overall system in our virtual power plant. Directly connected to the electricity market – in real time, fully automated. This way, energy is used when it is available from renewables and particularly cost-effective. By 2030, our goal is to transition 1.5 million households to renewable energies. Over 3,000 people are working towards this every day, at more than 80 locations worldwide, from Finland to Australia.
Want to take responsibility and build solutions that truly matter? Apply now and help us shape the energy world of tomorrow.

As a Werkstudent or Intern in Data Science Forecasting, you will join our Team to help shape the future of decentralized Energy Management Systems (EMS). Your core mission will be supporting the development, training, and testing of our time-series forecasting models (PV generation, household load, heat pump consumption, and EV charging).
This role offers a unique learning ground: you will get hands-on experience working on data and ML pipelines and projects running in live production You will join us during a period of rapid innovation, gaining the opportunity to actively contribute to our agentic AI workflows aimed at accelerating engineering productivity. This position is ideal for a student who wants to bridge the gap between academic data science theory and real-world, cloud-scale clean energy operations.
Time Series & ML Engineering: Support the team in building, improving, and retraining machine learning forecasting models
Production Operations: Actively assist in monitoring, updating, and troubleshooting forecasting models and pipelines operating in production environments
Data Pipelines & Cleansing: Help build and maintain robust data transformation pipelines using SQLMesh and BigQuery to pre-process large streams of data
Simulation & Validation: Use our internal simulation framework to backtest forecast models and analyze how forecast errors directly impact our high-level EMS optimization yield
Agentic AI & Workflow Automation: Assist in writing, structuring, and testing behaviors for autonomous AI agents to help automate workflows
Documentation & Team Sync: Help maintain clean, clear technical documentation in Notion and collaborate with Optimization and Data Engineers during sprint cycles
Current Studies: Enrolled in a Bachelor’s or Master’s program in Data Science, Computer Science, Statistics, Mathematics, Physics, or an equivalent quantitative field
Python Foundations: Solid coding skills in Python and familiarity with core data science libraries (pandas, numpy, scikit-learn)
ML Domain Knowledge: Solid theoretical understanding of machine learning principles, statistical analysis, model architectures (e.g., regression, tree-based ensembles), and key evaluation metrics
Analytical Mindset: Enthusiastic about troubleshooting data quality bugs and validating model outcomes using quantitative metrics
Team & Agile Mindset: You have a team-oriented mindset, enjoy working in agile environments (such as sprints), and deeply value close, transparent collaboration with your teammates
Domain Interest: A genuine interest in renewable energy, battery storage systems, smart grids, or electricity markets
First touchpoints working with cloud-based infrastructure (e.g. GCP, AWS, Azure), especially containerized workflows and data warehouse solutions
SQL Literacy: Understanding of relational databases and confidence writing SQL queries for data extraction, manipulation, and aggregation.
hands-on experience using generative AI tools, prompt engineering, or configuring AI coding assistants
Initial experience with data pipeline tools like SQLMesh or dbt.
Basic understanding of visualization tools like Grafana or Looker.

1KOMMA5° wurde im Juli 2021 mit dem Ziel gegründet alle Gebäude zu elektrifizieren und CO2-neutral zu machen. Durch den Einsatz von Solaranlagen, Stromspeicher, Wärmepumpe, Klimaanlagen und Ladeinfrastruktur in Verbindung mit einer intelligenten Steuerung wird Wind- und Sonnenstrom automatisch dann genutzt wenn er günstig ist und am Markt verkauft wenn er teuer ist.
Das technologische Herzstück ist “Heartbeat AI”. Die KI-Software verbindet die Energiesysteme direkt mit der Strombörse und steuert jedes einzelne System nach individuellen Fahrplänen in Echtzeit. So wird immer der günstigste und sauberste Strom bereitgestellt, ob vom eigenen Dach oder vom Strommarkt.
Inzwischen steuert Heartbeat AI ca. 50.000 Energiesysteme und so über 450 Megawatt - das größte virtuelle Kraftwerke für Privatkunden in Europa mit einem Strompreis unter 10 Cent je kWh im Jahresdurchschnitt.
1KOMMA5° hat bereits über 120.000 Kunden und gilt laut EUPD Studie seit 2024 als europäischer Marktführer. Zurzeit betreibt 1KOMMA5° über 80 Standorte mit rund 2.500 Mitarbeitenden in sieben Ländern in Europa und Australien.
