Junior Developer

Salary: RM 3,500 – RM 5,000 per month

About the role

This is a junior developer seat with a clear path into technical leadership. You will write product code from week one, report to our Technical Lead, and own features end to end: understand the problem, design a clean solution, ship it, test it, and stand behind it. Strong performance opens a path toward architecture, mentoring later hires, and eventually leadership role as Equilux scales.

Key responsibilities

• Build and ship product features across mobile, web, backend and AI tooling

• Use AI coding tools such as Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor as a daily multiplier, not as a substitute for thinking

• Work with real energy data, APIs and user-facing flows for the Energy Assistant

• Own features from requirements through implementation, testing and release

• Write clear English in pull requests, documentation and day-to-day communication

• Work closely with the Technical Lead, challenge ideas and help raise the engineering bar

• Grow into system design, engineering standards and mentoring as the team expands

About you

• Degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, IT, or equivalent ability shown through strong projects

• 0 to 3 years of professional software development. Internships and substantial personal projects count.

• Excellent written and spoken English

• Solid fundamentals: data structures, object-oriented design, APIs and Git

• Comfortable owning work without close supervision

• Willing to go deep on Flutter, Python and AI-assisted development if you are not already there

• Able to work hybrid from Johor Bahru, with occasional collaboration in Singapore

About us

Equilux is building a personal energy assistant for the home, not another solar dashboard. We turn solar, usage, tariff and household data into a conversational AI that helps homeowners save money, use more of their own solar, and feel like the home is looked after. We are an early-stage Singapore company with a small, high-ownership team. The engineer we hire now will help shape the product and the codebase.

Benefits

• Real ownership in an early product, not a long queue of isolated tickets

• Mentorship from a Technical Lead, with a visible path toward leadership responsibility

• Hybrid flexibility in Johor Bahru, close to Singapore

• Competitive junior compensation, reviewed as you grow with the company

• Early-stage exposure to product, customers and technical decisions

• A team that values clear thinking, direct communication and shipping
