Team Overview

At Equinix, energy is a strategic enabler of our global digital infrastructure. Managing power costs, commodity exposure, and market risk is essential to operating one of the world's largest data center platforms.

The Energy Market Risk Intern will support the Energy team by contributing to energy risk analysis, commodity portfolio insights, and market intelligence, while also assisting with cost, billing, and operational workflows. 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.

This is not a traditional finance internship. It is an applied energy role that blends markets, infrastructure, and operational execution.

What You Can Expect

• Support energy market and risk analysis, including energy commodity exposure tracking and scenario comparisons

• Assist with analysis of the energy and power commodity portfolio, focusing on cost drivers and market trends

• Gather and summarize energy market intelligence (pricing signals, regional power dynamics, proposed utility tariff changes)

• 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

Why Join Equinix?

Equinix offers interns meaningful exposure to real-world energy market decisions at global scale.

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
