Hear from our founders
We hope our platform will bridge the gap between old and new energy systems, making it modular, scalable, and easier for people to invest in solar panels, batteries, and EV chargers. This is the beginning of a more digitised energy system, built for the 21st century.

Co-founder & CEO
If you seek comfort or routine, then Starflow is not the place for you. But if you are driven by passion and the desire to shape something greater than yourself, then we might be the perfect fit.

Your mission
As our Senior Designer, you’ll lead the creation of Starflow’s overall product experience - fusing hardware, software, interaction, and emotion into one seamless whole.
This role goes beyond aesthetics. It’s about defining the big idea behind the product, shaping how it should feel and work, and turning that into something others can build from, align around, and fall in love with.
Shape the core product concept
Bridge hardware and software into one seamless experience
Visualize ideas in ways that create alignment
Design physical interactions that feel natural
Work with engineers to bring great ideas to life
Define how design is done at Starflow
Who we’re looking for
We’re looking for a thinker and a doer. Someone who knows how to shape a big idea, but also how to break it down into flows, sketches, principles, and prototypes that move the team forward.
You don’t need to have “Senior Designer” as a title on your CV - but you do need to be someone who thinks holistically, works systemically, and feels at home where hardware meets software.
Here are three traits we believe matter most in this role:
You know how to design across hardware and software
You’ve worked on products where screens, enclosures, buttons, and flows all had to feel like one system, not separate parts. You understand how the physical and digital influence each other, and you’re used to collaborating with engineers or industrial designers to get that integration right.
You turn fuzzy ideas into clear direction
You’re often the one sketching things out when the brief is still blurry. You use flows, mockups, storytelling, and whatever medium works to get early alignment, and you’re comfortable showing work before it’s polished.
You move between vision and execution
You can see the whole and bigger picture and imagine where the product should go. But you also know how to work toward that in small, concrete steps. You’re not afraid to build partial prototypes, define principles mid-flight, or adapt as things evolve.

Electronics & Technology Hardware
Starflow is building a seamless platform that brings together solar panels, home batteries, EV chargers, and the grid. At the core is a smart hybrid inverter — designed to become the central control unit of the modern home, capable of monitoring, managing, and optimizing energy use automatically.
With advanced hardware and open software architecture, the system will adapt to each home in real time. It’s being developed to help lower energy bills, enable storage and bring everything together in one intuitive interface. Easy to install, built to last, and ready for the energy needs of tomorrow.
Clean energy, made effortless. Quiet in presence. Powerful in action. Fully in sync with how we want to live. We’re building what energy should feel like. And this is just the beginning.
Life @ Starflow
We started Starflow to change how energy feels: seamless, intelligent, beautiful. But building something truly new doesn’t just require vision – it takes a special way of working, and people who care deeply about doing things right.
That’s why at Starflow, design isn’t just how the product looks. It’s how we think, how we make decisions, and how we come together as a team. We slow down enough to ask the right questions before chasing solutions. We create clarity first, knowing it leads to speed, calm, and confidence later.
We call this way of working the Flow process. It’s our shared rhythm, a supportive structure that removes friction rather than adding layers. It’s designed to help you feel energized, clear, and purposeful. Even when things move fast.
When you join Starflow, you don’t just fill a role. You help shape how things are done. You’ll work closely with founders, designers, engineers, and others who trust you from day one. You’ll get genuine ownership and the freedom to create something meaningful.
We’re building a team of people who love what they do, who speak honestly, who embrace uncertainty, and who genuinely care about each other and the impact they’re creating together.
Our values
From the very beginning, we knew we couldn’t leave culture to chance. If we wanted to build something that lasts, we had to be just as deliberate about how we work together as we are about the product itself.
These values aren’t something we wrote after the fact. They’ve shaped our choices from the beginning – who we hire, how we lead, how we give feedback, and what we expect of each other.
They’re not there to sound good. They’re there to be used.
Bold
We take calculated bets, aim higher than expected, and we’re not afraid to step into the unknown.
Integrity
We do what we say, and we do what’s right, even when no one’s watching.
Truth seeking
We put curiosity over comfort and clarity over ego. We don’t build on assumptions, we build on insight.
Care
We genuinely care. About the product we’re building, about the people who use it, and about each other.
