To reach competitive price levels, Europe has to lean on solar and deliver the flexibility that makes this feasible. Nomos is building a full-stack power company to unlock that flexibility by connecting millions of homes to Europe’s energy markets. At Nomos, we care about our craft and take full responsibility for what we build. We hire for spikes, not an absence of weaknesses, and look for exceptional ability backed by a record of achievement. This has brought together IMO and IOI medalists, former founders and Olympic athletes in a team whose individual strengths reinforce one another. ## 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. Why join us? As an early member of Nomos, you’ll help shape the company and share in its financial upside. Backed by Index Ventures, we’re building a European category leader in one of the world’s largest industries, making electricity affordable and Europe more competitive. Building a power company from scratch brings complex, rewarding challenges and the chance to solve Europe’s energy crisis for the long term. You’ll learn from people with exceptional depth in their fields, challenge each other’s thinking and take responsibility from the start. ## About Nomos ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Nomos provides a full-stack API platform that enables hardware companies to launch their own branded dynamic electricity plans by abstracting all legal, operational, and regulatory complexity. - **Entity Type**: Private (Pre-Seed) - **Headquarters**: Berlin, Germany - **Founded**: 2023 - **Founders**: Nils Bitzer and Stefan Gerbes ## Core Business - **Primary Industry**: Energy technology (Energytech / Electricity retail) - **Target Customers**: B2B – hardware manufacturers, consumer electronics companies, and any business that wants to offer energy plans under its own brand. - **Mission**: Empowering companies to put consumers in charge of their energy through simple, embedded energy services. ## Products & Services - **Embedded Energy Platform**: A full-stack offering that includes licensed electricity retail, procurement, billing, metering, and supplier switching – all exposed via a single API.
