At Peak Power, we’re making it profitable to pursue net zero
Peak Power enables C&I companies to reduce costs while pursuing net zero goals by working with financiers to provide a no-cost battery energy storage solution that covers deployment, operation, and maintenance. We also help distributed energy resource asset owners optimize their assets through our Peak Synergy software.
Peak Synergy is our energy efficiency software platform. It analyzes grid conditions in real-time and sends notifications for high demand hours. The platform also looks at how dirty the grid is at any moment. If a building has batteries and EVs chargers onsite, Peak Synergy manages their usage to meet sustainability goals and participate in complicated energy market programs.
At the end of the day, this means cleaner, more reliable, and more affordable electricity for everyone. We’re powering the clean energy revolution.
The Opportunity
Join Peak Power’s software innovation team as we build a new forecast platform from scratch. In this hybrid role, you’ll start by collaborating closely with our Software Innovation team to help architect, develop, and validate the solution that will help forecast capabilities.
Once the platform is established, you’ll transition into a more of a data engineering focused role, working closely with our Senior Data Scientist, to transform complex business and market data into actionable insights. From structuring data systems to supporting forecasts (including peak hours, nodal load, nodal pricing, and ESS performance), you’ll play a key role in enabling measurable, data-driven improvements across the organization. This is a unique opportunity to influence a major product from inception to launch and then grow into a core contributor to our data ecosystem.
This work matters. Even a small change to optimize electricity usage can significantly impact our customers, electrical grid, and environment. We're building something that will have a lasting, positive impact.
