Director of Engineering – Microgrid Solutions
About WattBridge
The global energy landscape is rapidly changing, and we're here to accelerate that change. From the decommissioning of high-carbon power assets, accelerated expansion of renewable energy resources as baseload power, to the advent of the prosumer. The volatility on today's energy grid has never been greater. WattBridge was conceived by power industry experts to enable the sustained integration of highly efficient, reduced carbon dispatchable power generation assets on our national energy grid.
Our Footprint
We are primed for the Energy Transition with permanent service locations in Missouri, Texas, and Argentina. Our world-class Missouri headquarters is purpose-built to meet peaking-power needs. It sits on 90 acres in Sedalia and features more than 900,000 sq. ft of facilities and equipment, including the only independent Level-IV aeroderivative depot in North America and a hydrogen-ready string-test facility that enables full-speed, full-load testing. Our Houston, Texas, office is a strategic satellite positioned near our own peaking-power installations.
Our Philosophy
We take care of our people and strive to make a positive difference for the world. We offer competitive pay, excellent benefits that include Medical, Dental, Vision, and Life/Disability Insurance at minimal cost to the employee, 10 paid holidays, paid time off and a 401K plan. If you are looking for a rewarding career and possess the specialized knowledge and quality-oriented problem-solving skills, we encourage you to apply today.
