Job description
About Us
At VREY, we are building the EnergyOS for Multi-Family Houses.
In Germany, there are over 3.3 million multi-family houses – and they are the black hole of the energy transition.
At the same time, regulation is forcing owners to make massive investments: Solar is becoming mandatory, smart meters must be rolled out nationwide in the next 5 years, heating and mobility are electrifying. The multi-family house is transforming from a concrete asset into an active part of the decentralized energy infrastructure.
What's missing is an integrated system that makes this transformation economically and operationally manageable.
VREY combines certified metering point operation with its own software and, for the first time, enables owners to sell their self-generated solar power directly to their tenants – simply and without becoming an energy supplier themselves (§42b EnWG).
This transforms regulatory compulsion into a profitable and predictable opportunity:
Double-digit returns and value appreciation for owners,
~20% electricity cost savings for tenants, and
digital infrastructure for storage, heat pumps, and flexibility.
We already manage a three-digit number of projects – including the largest portfolio holders and housing cooperatives – in all 16 federal states. This makes us one of the leading providers in the market in a very short time.
As part of our seed funding round, we raised €3.3 million from leading impact and energy VCs (including Rubio Impact Ventures, HTGF, Kopa Ventures). With the fresh capital, we are entering the next phase of growth and are strategically expanding our team.
We are at the beginning of a structural market shift. Whoever defines the energy infrastructure in multi-family houses today will shape it for decades to come. Become part of VREY and build the leading EnergyOS with us.
