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.
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:
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.
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.
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.
