    • Work with customers to understand their specific operational and regulatory requirements, customizing workflows and integrations to meet their needs.
    • Oversee data migration, integration with third-party systems, and performance monitoring for smooth day-to-day operation.
  • Solution Customization & Continuous Improvement:
    • Collaborate with internal product and engineering teams to refine existing features and develop new functionalities, aligning them with market and customer needs.
    • Advise customers on best practices for data management, analytics, and workflow optimization
    • Identify opportunities for additional value-add services or product enhancements based on customer feedback and evolving grid modernization requirements.
  • Thought Leadership & Market Engagement:
    • Represent Gridsight in industry working groups, conferences, and customer-facing webinars to showcase our solutions and share industry best practices.
    • Co-present case studies and research findings, elevating Gridsight's profile as a leader in grid flexibility, orchestration, and AI-driven power systems analytics.
    • Serve as a trusted advisor to senior utility stakeholders, influencing their grid modernization strategies and demonstrating the ROI of adopting Gridsight's solutions.

Qualifications:
  • Educational Background:
    • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Power Systems, or a related field.
  • Experience:
    • 5 - 10 years of experience in power systems engineering, distribution planning, or a related field within utilities, energy technology or consulting.
    • Demonstrated success in project management within utilities or energy.
    • Hands-on experience with advanced power system modeling tools (e.g., PowerFactory, CYME, PSS/E) and cloud-based SaaS technologies (AWS, Azure) is a plus.

    • Understanding of emerging trends in energy markets.
    • Knowledge of AI/ML applications in power systems is advantageous.
  • Soft Skills:
    • Exceptional communication and presentation skills, capable of interfacing with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
    • Customer-focused mindset with the ability to build and maintain strong client relationships.
    • Proven problem-solving abilities and a self-starter mentality, comfortable working in a fast-paced startup environment.
    • Effective project management skills, with a track record of coordinating cross-functional teams and ensuring on-time, high-quality deliverables.
What We Offer:
  • Join a rapidly scaling venture-backed company on the first floor.
