I made the transition from fintech to climate (solar) about 5 years ago and am incredibly happy with the decision.
The primary challenge for me was finding a company which was mission-driven, had interesting engineering problems, and had a strong engineering culture. At the time, that combination felt very rare.
Ultimately, software necessarily sits a few steps removed from the tactical changes in climate (energy transition, policy, etc.). That said, I do feel like I'm making a tangible impact on moving the US toward solar and away from carbon-intensive energy.
P.S. I lead the engineering team at Wunder Capital [1]. I'd be happy to chat with anyone interested in moving into climate and/or our open engineering roles.

Wunder was founded with one simple vision: to address the greatest crisis of our generation by accelerating the proliferation of solar energy. We’re building a team of high-performing, effective, and sophisticated engineers. If you’re tired of making apps for teenagers’ phones and you get excited about writing code to power the renewable energy infrastructure of the future, then this is the role for you.
