Engineering Technician

Dig Energy • Manchester, NH

15h • Onsite

About The Position

Dig Energy is an early-stage energy startup working to create affordable geothermal energy at a global scale. We have developed a new, radically inexpensive installation method that enables us to create geothermal boreholes anywhere in the world. Our technology works with buildings of all types: commercial and residential heating/cooling, as well as refrigeration. We’ve raised funding from top investors and are now moving from R&D to commercialization. We are actively assembling our first production system and have multiple commercial installations lined up for this summer. Due to the hands-on nature of our work, this is an on-site role. Time will be split between our headquarters in Manchester, NH, our shop space in Derry, NH and test/customer sites in and out of New England. We are looking for our first engineering technician to support assembly, testing, qualification and deployment of our first geothermal installation system. This role requires someone who is equally comfortable in an engineering prototyping environment as they are supporting installations in the field. They will work closely with engineering and operations to build, maintain and operate our system. They must be hands-on, adaptable, hard-working and a strong team player, with a bias towards action and an anything-to-get-the-job-done mentality.

Requirements

• Resourceful and highly collaborative team player who think creatively, has high attention to detail, and can work with a cross-functional team that is moving as quickly as possible
