What They Do

Brighte Capital, operating as Brighte, is a private fintech company that specializes in providing point-of-sale financing solutions aimed at facilitating affordable access to sustainable home upgrades, particularly in the renewable energy sector. Founded in 2015, the company initially started as a digital payments platform connecting homeowners with home improvement businesses but has since evolved to focus on enabling the adoption of solar energy, batteries, and other energy-efficient upgrades (source: rocketreach.co). Brighte's innovative financing model allows homeowners to access 0% interest payment plans while ensuring that over 2,200 partner vendors receive instant lump-sum payments, effectively streamlining the process of acquiring sustainable products (source: climatebase.org). The company primarily targets Australian residential customers and small-to-medium enterprises (SMEs) looking to invest in solar panels, energy management systems, and electrification solutions (source: climatebase.org). By focusing exclusively on sustainability financing, Brighte differentiates itself from traditional lenders, positioning itself as a leader in the green energy sector (source: rocketreach.co).

Projects & Track Record

Brighte Capital has made significant strides in promoting the adoption of renewable energy across Australia, having processed over $1.9 billion in finance applications and assisted more than 150,000 households in installing solar energy systems. This collective effort has resulted in the generation of approximately 2,400 GWh of clean energy and a reduction of over 1.6 million metric tonnes of CO2e emissions annually (source: brighte.com.au). While Brighte does not directly develop renewable energy projects, its financing solutions have enabled widespread adoption of solar installations, contributing to a growing demand for sustainable homes, which is projected to reach $1 billion by mid-2025 (source: brighte.com.au). The company has established partnerships with over 2,200 SMEs across Australia, facilitating solar, battery, and electric vehicle upgrades, although specific project names are not detailed (source: brighte.com.au). Key clients include OVO Energy Australia and CIT, with collaborative initiatives aimed at promoting renewable energy solutions, particularly for women-led projects in the ACT (source: brighte.com.au).

Recent Developments

In recent years, Brighte has achieved notable milestones, including reaching $1 billion in sustainable home demand and announcing its commitment to carbon neutrality by 2025. On June 19, 2025, Brighte became the principal partner of Solar Cutters, a move aimed at supporting solar installers across Australia (source: brighte.com.au). The company has also engaged in several strategic partnerships, such as the collaboration with evee on August 5, 2024, to offer tailored sustainability solutions, and a partnership with OVO Energy Australia on May 24, 2024, to provide affordable energy equipment (source: brighte.com.au). Additionally, Brighte has been involved in empowering women in renewable initiatives through its collaboration with CIT, which was announced on April 19, 2024 (source: brighte.com.au). The company also secured a $100 million Series C funding round, led by Grok Ventures, further solidifying its financial position in the market (source: zoominfo.com).

About the Role

Design, build, and maintain dbt/SQL transformations and dimensional models that power self-serve analytics and AI - documented, tested, and built to last.

You'll own data quality, lineage, and CI/CD from the ground up, so when someone looks at a number, they trust it. Around 20% of your time you'll work directly with stakeholders, turning business questions into metrics and feeding real-world insights back into the models.

Day-to-day you'll

  • Build and maintain dbt models, tests, and documentation for dimensional warehouse schemas (star/snowflake).
  • Develop and evolve a semantic layer/metrics definitions to enable consistent self-serve in BI and AI tools.
  • Implement data quality checks, lineage, and documentation; monitor data freshness and model performance.
  • Contribute to orchestration and CI/CD workflows (e.g., dbt Cloud/CI, scheduler) with git-based workflows.
  • Partner with stakeholders for light analysis and dashboarding (~20%), translating questions into metrics and iterating on insights.
  • Contribute to standards, conventions, and documentation to scale data development across teams.

About You

  • Strong SQL (CTEs, window functions) and hands-on dbt experience across models, tests, and docs
  • Solid data modelling fundamentals - dimensional schemas, SCDs, and metrics/semantic layer literacy
  • Git-based workflows, code review habits, and CI/CD basics for data changes
  • A quality-first mindset: testing, lineage, ownership, and documentation that consumers can rely on
  • Comfort with at least one BI tool (Tableau, Power BI, Looker) and an eye for good dashboards
  • The ability to translate business questions into metrics and explain trade-offs without the jargon
  • Bonus: Python for data tasks, orchestration exposure, or monitoring/observability experience

Our hiring process

We use AI every day at Brighte, and we hire people who do too. Every role includes a short assessment that shows us how you put AI to work - use whatever tool you're most comfortable with, there's no trick to it.

Background and reference checks (police, AML, bankruptcy) come towards the end. We use AI in parts of our recruitment process, but final decisions are made by humans.

What's in it for you

A front-row seat to Australia's energy transition. Brighte finances and electrifies homes at scale - solar, batteries, hot water, heating - and our enterprise partners are central to this.

On top of that:

  • Hybrid working. 3 days in office, 2 from home.
  • We love our Socials - lunches, drinks, snacks, table tennis, a properly stocked pantry, and the company of people you actually like.
  • Employee Share Option Plan (ESOP). Share in Brighte's success.
  • End-of-trip facilities for cyclists, including showers and towel service.
  • Anniversary leave. An extra day off each year to mark your time with us.
