Provider of automation of power grid simulation services designed to connect to the grid efficiently. Backed by Convective Capital.
About the role
The power grid is the backbone of national security, the economy, and the energy transition—and growing uncertainty is making it harder to maintain reliability while integrating new generation and serving rapid load growth. As a result, generation developers, large load developers, and electric utilities are forced to plan and build with imperfect data and slow study workflows, making interconnection and long-term planning slower, riskier, and more uncertain.

What they're looking for
- Degree in Electrical Engineering with a focus on Power Systems
- Business-level English skills
- At least 5 years of industry experience in roles at a utility, system operator, engineering consultancy or similar
- High interconnection fluency (cluster processes, study phases, upgrades/costs, queue dynamics)
- Good understanding of technical standards and regulations related to electricity grid planning, development, operation, and interconnection
- Hands-on experience with commercial power system analysis tools for steady-state and dynamic studies and plant model building (e.g., PSSE, TARA, PowerWorld)
