Summer Power Engineer information

What is a summer power engineer?

Summer Power Engineers are engineering students or recent graduates who work temporary positions during the summer months, typically within the power generation, transmission, or distribution sectors. Their work includes assisting with projects related to electrical systems, supporting maintenance and operations, and applying their academic knowledge in real-world settings. These roles provide valuable hands-on experience, mentorship, and networking opportunities, often leading to future full-time employment in the power industry. Summer Power Engineers may also contribute to research, safety assessments, and technical documentation under the guidance of experienced professionals.

What is the difference between Summer Power Engineer vs Power Plant Operator?

AspectSummer Power EngineerPower Plant Operator
Required CredentialsEngineering degree or diploma, certifications in power systemsHigh school diploma, licensing or certification depending on jurisdiction
Work EnvironmentDesign, maintenance, and testing in power plants, often seasonalOperate and monitor plant equipment, often in shifts
Industry UsageUsed in power generation facilities during peak or seasonal periodsCommonly employed in power plants for daily operations

The Summer Power Engineer typically focuses on seasonal maintenance, testing, and system optimization, often requiring engineering credentials. In contrast, the Power Plant Operator handles daily operational tasks, monitoring equipment, and ensuring continuous power supply. Both roles are essential in power generation but differ mainly in scope, credentials, and seasonal versus ongoing responsibilities.

What does a summer power engineer do?

As a Summer Power Engineer, you can expect to work on a variety of hands-on projects such as assisting with the design and analysis of power systems, supporting equipment testing, and contributing to ongoing maintenance or upgrade initiatives. Interns often collaborate closely with experienced engineers, attend project meetings, and may help with data collection or report preparation. The role provides exposure to real-world challenges in power distribution, renewable integration, and grid reliability, offering valuable learning experiences and professional development opportunities.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a summer power engineer?

To thrive as a Summer Power Engineer, you typically need a solid background in electrical engineering principles, coursework towards an engineering degree, and familiarity with power systems. Proficiency with industry-standard tools such as AutoCAD, MATLAB, and power system analysis software is often required. Strong problem-solving skills, teamwork, and effective communication help you stand out in collaborative project environments. These skills and qualities are essential for ensuring technical accuracy, safety, and the successful completion of power engineering projects during the internship period.

Is there a demand for summer power engineers?

Summer power engineers are in demand during peak seasons when increased energy consumption requires additional expertise in power systems, maintenance, and grid management. Employers often seek candidates with relevant certifications and experience in electrical systems to support seasonal workload increases.

Job description

About the Team

We're an incubator-style team inside Parachute Health, scaling AI capabilities across the entire product ecosystem.

What you'll do

  • Design and build agentic LLM pipelines that power AI features across the product.
  • Build full-stack product features: Python/FastAPI web applications, TypeScript or React web tooling.
  • Prompt-engineer and iterate on LLM prompts and models. Evaluate and recommend improvements based on accuracy, latency, and cost.
  • Strengthen our evaluation framework: curated datasets, evals, experiments, and regression identification, so we can ship changes with confidence.
  • Improve production observability: accuracy signals and feedback loops.
  • Contribute to architecture and technical direction.
  • Actively partner with other product teams to understand their AI use cases and identify how to best enable and support them.
  • Advise on when to apply an AI/LLM solution, and when not to: championing AI where it drives speed and ROI and steering away where it doesn't.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of professional software engineering experience
  • Experience working in a startup, incubator, or other fast-paced 0-to-1 environment where you own features end-to-end and set your own direction.
  • Strong full-stack web application experience in Python.
  • Has shipped reliable agentic LLM workflows to production, with any orchestration framework (LangGraph, LangChain, etc).
  • Experience evaluating and testing LLM workflows: eval harnesses, golden datasets, regressions, and observability.
  • Familiarity with prompt engineering and the prompt iteration lifecycle.
  • Fluent with AI-powered coding tools (e.g. Cursor, Claude Code) to move quickly.
  • Strong written and verbal communication; able to drive alignment without being asked.
  • Must reside in the U.S.

Nice to Have

  • Healthcare workflows or health-tech experience.
  • Ruby on Rails experience
  • A track record of evaluating emerging AI tools and driving their adoption on a team.

Benefits

  • Medical, Dental, and Vision Coverage: Comprehensive plans with options for low-to-no-cost premiums.
  • Employer HSA Contribution: Company-funded contributions to your Health Savings Account.
  • 401(k) Retirement Plan
  • Equity Incentive Plan
  • Annual Company-Wide Bonus: Opportunity for up to 15% bonus based on company performance.
  • Remote-First Culture: We are remote-first with a dedicated NYC office and reimbursement options for co-working spaces.
  • Flexible Vacation Policy
  • Summer Fridays: 5 additional Fridays off during the summer (separate from PTO).
  • Home Office and Wellness Stipend
  • Monthly Internet Stipend
  • Annual Learning and Development Stipend

Base Salary Band (based on experience and level)

Staff: $200,000 - $260,000

To ensure you're leveled accurately, all new engineers participate in a 90-day review. This allows us to calibrate your initial interview results with your actual work, ensuring your title and compensation align with your impact and our engineering rubric.
