What We’re Looking For

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Power Systems, or a related field
• 5+ years of experience in utility planning, or energy consulting
• Deep familiarity with utility planning workflows such as transmission planning, interconnection studies, flexibility planning, capacity expansion, production cost modeling, resource adequacy, ISP and IRP
• Familiarity with NERC reliability frameworks, FERC planning processes, and interconnection-related planning requirements
• Experience working with utilities, ISOs/RTOs, or transmission organizations
• Ability to communicate effectively across technical, operational, and executive stakeholders
• Customer-facing experience, including workshops, technical presentations, implementations, or consulting engagements
• Strong systems thinking and ability to connect customer problems to scalable software solutions
• Comfortable operating in a fast-moving startup environment with evolving priorities
• Collaborative mindset with ability to work cross-functionally across Product, Engineering, and Sales teams.

Nice to Have

• Experience with power flow studies, interconnection queues, transmission expansion planning and production cost modeling
