This role is designed for students who are passionate about energy and power markets, and who bring finance, accounting, and IT skills as part of their analytical toolkit.

  • Support development and upkeep of energy cost and budget calculators 

  • Review and process utility invoices, utility tariff schedules, and bill pay workflows 

  • Assist with regional power capacity reviews and demand planning inputs 

  • Support tracking and validation of construction-related energy invoices 

  • Prepare summaries and reports for energy, operations, and leadership teams

You will: 

  • See how power markets and commodity risk directly impact infrastructure operations 

  • Work alongside energy, operations, and finance professionals 

  • Gain hands-on experience connecting market intelligence to operational outcomes 

  • Participate in Equinix’s global intern development and learning programs 

Who You Are 

Required 

  • Currently enrolled in an accredited university, in your penultimate year of a Bachelor’s or Master’s program 

  • Majoring in or closely aligned with Energy, Finance, Engineering, Operations, Supply Chain, Economics, or Sustainability 

  • Strong interest and passion for energy markets and commodities 

  • Expected graduation between December 2026 – May 2027 

  • Available to work full-time for the internship duration 

  • Comfortable using Excel, Power Point, Smartsheet, Power BI and other analytical tools 

  • Detail-oriented with strong communication skills 

Preferred 

  • Participation in energy-focused trading, risk, or investment programs 

  • Exposure to power markets, utility tariffs, or commodity risk concepts 

  • Experience applying finance, accounting, or IT skills to analytical or operational problems 

  • Interest in infrastructure, data centers, or large-scale energy systems
