AI Engineer
About The Position
Powertown is hiring an AI Engineer to build map-based intelligence for battery storage development. The role focuses on finding signals in messy infrastructure data and turning them into a product advantage, helping Powertown identify better sites across the United States more quickly. The engineer will build systems and workflows that discover, rank, enrich, and explain development prospects, using infrastructure, land, grid, utility, market, and spatial data. The role also uses agents to shorten research processes and makes maps intelligent tools for discovering opportunity rather than merely presenting information. The ideal candidate combines engineering, investigation, and strategic thinking; enjoys working with messy data; and asks insightful questions about opportunities shown on maps. Preferred fields of study include Computer Science, Data Science, Artificial Intelligence, Electrical Engineering, Energy Systems, Physics, GIS, or a similarly analytical field with strong technical ability.
Requirements
- Strong technical ability in a similarly analytical field or relevant technical discipline.
- Exceptional ability exemplified through personal projects.
Nice To Haves
- A major in Computer Science, Data Science, Artificial Intelligence, Electrical Engineering, Energy Systems, Physics, GIS, or a similarly analytical field.
- Experience with geospatial systems, infrastructure datasets, utility data, energy markets, site selection, ranking systems, AI-assisted research, data extraction, or large messy public or commercial datasets.
- Evidence of unusual initiative through shipped projects, research, startup work, competitions, technical writing, or self-directed data products.
Responsibilities
- Turn scattered infrastructure data into a living map of opportunity.
- Build systems that rank, enrich, and explain prospects.
- Extract signal from land, grid, utility, market, and spatial data.
- Use agents to compress research loops that usually take days.
- Create workflows that help the team notice what others miss.
- Make maps feel intelligent, not decorative.
