What is a grid operator?

A Grid Operator is responsible for monitoring and controlling electrical power grids to ensure a stable and reliable electricity supply. They manage power flow, respond to system disturbances, and coordinate with power plants and substations to maintain grid stability. Grid Operators use specialized software and real-time data to balance electricity demand and supply. They follow strict protocols to prevent blackouts and restore power efficiently in case of outages. This role requires strong analytical skills, quick decision-making, and in-depth knowledge of electrical systems.

What does a grid operator do?

A typical shift for a Grid Operator usually involves monitoring the power grid, responding to changes in electricity demand, and coordinating maintenance or emergency responses. Operators work in control rooms, often as part of a rotating schedule that may include nights, weekends, or holidays to ensure 24/7 coverage. Daily tasks include analyzing system data, issuing instructions to field crews, communicating with utility partners, and recording detailed logs of events. You’ll collaborate with engineers, dispatchers, and other operators to maintain grid stability and quickly troubleshoot any issues that arise. This dynamic environment requires staying alert and ready to act decisively under pressure.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a grid operator?

To thrive as a Grid Operator, you need a solid understanding of electrical power systems, grid management principles, and typically an associate or bachelor's degree in electrical engineering or a related field. Familiarity with real-time monitoring software (such as SCADA systems), NERC certification, and standard operating procedures are commonly required. Strong decision-making skills, situational awareness, and effective communication are key soft skills for excelling in this role. These abilities are vital to ensure the reliable and safe operation of electrical grids, minimize outages, and coordinate effectively with multiple stakeholders.

Job description

Job Purpose:

Navitas Semiconductor (Nasdaq: NVTS) is a next-generation power semiconductor leader driving innovation in gallium nitride (GaN) and high-voltage silicon carbide (SiC) technologies. Our products enable faster, more efficient power delivery across AI data centers, high-performance computing, energy and grid infrastructure, and industrial electrification.

With more than 30 years of combined expertise in wide bandgap technologies, GaNFast™ power ICs integrate GaN power, drive, control, sensing, and protection, delivering faster power delivery, higher system density, and greater efficiency. GeneSiC™ high-voltage SiC devices leverage patented trench-assisted planar technology to provide industry-leading voltage capability, efficiency, and reliability for medium-voltage grid and infrastructure applications. 

We are seeking an FP&A Analyst to join our fast-growing, collaborative team. The ideal candidate is self-motivated, energetic, and able to thrive in a high-growth, innovative environment, contributing directly to technologies that are shaping the future of power electronics. 

About the Role

We're hiring an FP&A Analyst to support operating expense forecasting, partner directly with budget owners across the business, and serve as a key link between Finance and Accounting. This role combines hands-on modeling work with cross-functional partnership and SOX compliance ownership — ideal for someone who wants visibility into how a finance organization is actually run.

Key Responsibilities and Duties:

  • Operating Expense Modeling & Forecasting

Build and maintain detailed OpEx models across departments. Drive the monthly forecast and annual budget cycles, including headcount planning, vendor spend, and discretionary expense categories. Identify trends, variances, and risks/opportunities, and translate them into clear narratives for leadership.

  • Business Partnership

Meet regularly with department budget owners to review actuals, refine forecasts, and pressure-test assumptions. Act as a trusted finance partner — explain variances in plain language and help leaders make better resource decisions.

  • Accounting Partnership & GL Review

Review general ledger entries for accuracy of department coding, accruals, and reclasses. Provide timely feedback to the accounting team during close, flag anomalies, and help ensure expenses land in the right cost centers and accounts.

  • SOX Controls

Own and execute several SOX controls within the FP&A scope. Maintain supporting documentation, perform control activities on schedule, and serve as the primary contact for internal and external auditors on those controls.

  • Reporting & Presentations

Build executive-ready presentations and reporting packages for monthly business reviews, board materials, and ad hoc strategic analyses. Translate complex financial data into clean, decision-useful visuals.

  • Systems & Data Interoperability

Work across Business Central (ERP) and Paycom (HRIS/payroll) to pull, reconcile, and integrate data into FP&A models and reporting. Identify opportunities to automate data flows and reduce manual reconciliation.

Required Qualifications

Basic

  • 2–4 years of FP&A, accounting, audit, or related corporate finance experience
  • Advanced Excel skills (complex modeling, large datasets, lookup/index/match, pivot tables)
  • Working knowledge of US GAAP and the OpEx side of the P&L
  • Experience with ERP and HRIS systems — Business Central and Paycom
  • Familiarity with SOX controls and the audit cycle
  • Strong written and verbal communication
  • Detail-oriented but able to zoom out to the "why"

Preferred

  • Power BI, exposure to a public company close cycle, semiconductor or hardware industry experience.

What We Offer

  • A front-row seat to the future of power electronics. Work on cutting-edge GaN and SiC technologies that are transforming AI data centers, electrification, and global energy infrastructure.
  • A fast-paced, high-energy environment. We move quickly, make decisions with purpose, and empower employees to take ownership and drive real impact from day one.
  • A team that shows up and delivers. We care deeply about our mission, our customers, and each other. We collaborate, support one another, and bring intensity and accountability to everything we do.
  • Full support to succeed. You’ll have access to leadership, cross-functional collaboration, and the resources needed to innovate and execute at a high level.
  • Competitive total rewards. Comprehensive health, dental, and vision coverage, unlimited PTO, and a competitive compensation package including base salary,  bonus, and equity awards.
