Meet the Team: Wei Ge - Senior Software Engineer

Paris, France, Tuesday 1 July 2025

Summary

  • Previously: Software engineer at Univers, the digital arm of Envision Energy, working on EV charging platforms using OCPP and OCPI protocols
  • At Decade Energy: Builds resilient, interoperable systems that integrate battery storage and support real-world energy operations
  • Why it matters: Wei’s focus on clarity, usability and grounded design ensures Decade Energy’s software bridges the gap between infrastructure and intelligence

At Decade Energy, we’re building the software infrastructure that powers the shift to electric logistics, bridging energy systems, fleet operations, and real-world performance.

Wei Ge, Senior Software Engineer, is at the core of that work: developing backend systems that integrate battery storage, support industrial protocols like Modbus TCP and ensure our infrastructure is secure, observable and operable at active energy sites.

From Protocols to Real-World Performance

Before joining Decade Energy, Wei worked at Univers, the digital branch of Envision Energy, where she helped build EV charging platforms based on OCPP and OCPI standards. Her work supported both Charging Point Operators (CPOs) and e-Mobility Service Providers (EMSPs) - giving her hands-on experience with hardware-software integration in complex, uptime-critical environments.

“The experience gave me a strong appreciation for the complexity of hardware-software integration, especially when uptime, vendor variation and physical constraints are part of everyday operations.”

It’s that real-world complexity that drew her deeper into energy. Unlike pure software environments, this domain is physical, dynamic and infrastructure-heavy. You’re not just pushing code: you’re powering sites, vehicles and decisions.

An Engineering Approach Rooted in Clarity

Wei thrives when building systems from the ground up, not just understanding how things work, but why they’re designed a certain way.

At Decade Energy, Wei works across the full stack of challenges, from designing technical protocols to understanding how field operators actually use the tools. She cares about building systems that are not just functional, but practical in the real world.

Her approach is guided by a few key principles:

  • Designing systems that are clear, reliable and easy to maintain
  • Making sure modern software works well with older, legacy technologies
  • Creating tools that support real day-to-day work, not just internal processes
  • Always considering the physical and technical limits of the hardware involved
“Working in the energy sector shifted my mindset. The engineering problems are more grounded, and the impact is more direct.”

Why Decade Energy, Why Now

What excites Wei about Decade Energy is its mission: accelerating the electrification of logistics fleets. Right now, that starts with battery storage systems that help clients secure power capacity - but the vision is much broader.

“There’s currently no centralized, intuitive platform to monitor energy usage, battery performance and charging behavior in one place. I want to help build that.”

She’s especially motivated by the chance to support the people on the ground - fleet managers, energy analysts, site operators - with systems that make operations visible, decisions simpler and electrification more achievable.

Outside the Code

Wei’s calm focus and attention to detail are well-known across the team. But outside of work, she embraces a more hands-on kind of creativity. 

Painting. Knitting sweaters. Cooking.

“These give me a different kind of satisfaction than coding."

Apart from that, you can find Wei practicing yoga, exploring new foods and carving out quiet time for creativity. But don’t let her calm vibe fool you: in a round of Overcooked, her competitive streak comes out fast.


Curious to connect, collaborate, or work with us?

Over the coming weeks, we’ll share more about the people behind Decade Energy, on what they’ve done before, what brought them to Decade Energy and on their motivations and learnings so far. 

Curious to connect, collaborate, or work with us? We’d love to hear from you.
