Peak Energy designs and deploys grid-scale sodium-ion energy storage systems for reliable, lower-cost energy infrastructure. Backed by Eclipse Ventures.
About the role
The Field Engineer owns hands-on execution at the site level — installing, commissioning, and troubleshooting energy storage systems from first-of-a-kind pilots through scaled BESS deployments. As Peak Energy scales from pilot to gigawatt-level deployment, we need engineers on the ground who can turn designs into working, serviceable systems and catch issues before they become field failures.
What they're looking for
- Strong hands-on electrical experience—background as an electrician, electrical technician, or test engineer preferred
- Ability to read electrical schematics, calculate electrical loads, and collaborate with design and field engineering teams
- Hands-on experience with electrical and mechanical troubleshooting, background in batteries, power electronics, or related systems is a plus
- Experience in field deployment or operations roles supporting hardware rollouts or energy systems
- Familiarity with fleet operations, facilities project management, and site coordination
- Comfortable running multiple projects at once in fast-moving, resource-constrained environments
