Full Job Description
What You'll Achieve

  • Define and execute the methodology for new market-informed interconnection study products that extend our existing power flow analysis into congestion, curtailment, and dispatch economics
  • Build and own the market data infrastructure - onboard vendor data, build pipelines for constraint binding histories, LMP decomposition, and outage records, and maintain datasets across target ISO markets
  • Connect transmission planning results to market outcomes by mapping power flow violations and shift factors to real-world constraint binding patterns and congestion pricing
  • Configure, run, and validate production cost models to simulate nodal market outcomes across PJM, ERCOT, MISO, and other target markets
  • Work directly with product, power engineers, and software engineers to translate domain expertise into automated, repeatable analysis
  • Act as the internal authority on how ISO markets clear and how market data should inform our interconnection products


Requirements

  • 3+ years of experience in power market analytics, nodal modeling, congestion analysis, or production cost modeling at an ISO/RTO, utility, IPP, developer, trading firm, or consultancy.
  • Hands-on experience configuring and running production cost models (PROBE, PLEXOS, PROMOD, Aurora, DAYZER, or similar). You have built and debugged models, not only interpreted outputs.
  • Strong understanding of ISO/RTO market mechanics: LMP formation, SCUC/SCED, constraint binding, shadow prices, shift factors, flowgate definitions.
  • Experience working with large market datasets - historical LMPs, binding constraint records, transmission outage data - and applying them to congestion or curtailment analysis.
  • Proficiency in Python, SQL, or equivalent tools for data processing and analysis.


About You

  • You are excited to lay the foundation for power market analyses and AI.
  • Have strong analytical fundamentals and a deep understanding of how nodal markets work, and are looking for a role where that expertise gets applied to building products - not repeating the same deliverable on a different timeline.
  • Are comfortable working at the boundary of transmission planning and market analytics, and can communicate effectively with engineers on both sides.
  • See AI as an opportunity to automate the repetitive parts of market analysis so you can focus on the methodology and the edge cases that really matter.
  • Default to action, curiosity, and building smarter workflows.
  • Want your analysis to become infrastructure that scales, not a report that gets filed.
  • Deep familiarity with multiple ISOs.


Bonus Points

  • Experience analyzing curtailment risk, basis risk, or congestion exposure for BESS, solar, or large load (datacenter) projects.
  • Familiarity with PowerGEM tools (TARA, PROBE) or Yes Energy data products.
  • Involvement in FERC proceedings, RTO stakeholder processes, or interconnection policy work.


Compensation and Benefits

  • $120,000 - $160,000 annual compensation
  • Competitive equity compensation
  • 401(k) match
  • Health, dental and vision insurance
  • Paid company holidays & PTO
  • Hybrid work in the office in Williamsburg, Brooklyn ~3x per week
