at Intersect Power

๐Ÿข About Intersect Power

Intersect Power is a mission-driven company focused on scalable low-carbon solutions for retail and wholesale energy markets, offering clean electricity and fuels. Working here means contributing to the energy transition with cutting-edge technology, in a remote-first culture that values innovation and impact.

About This Role

As AI Solutions lead, you'll drive the adoption of AI across the companyโ€”evaluating tools, building governance, and enabling teams to work smarter. This role is pivotal in shaping how Intersect Power leverages AI to accelerate clean energy solutions, directly impacting operational efficiency and strategic goals.

๐Ÿ’ก A Day in the Life

You might start by reviewing a new AI tool demo, then meet with the operations team to map out automation opportunities. After lunch, you'll draft a prompt standard for the company's LLM usage, and end the day by presenting a successful use case to the leadership team to drive adoption.

๐ŸŽฏ Who Intersect Power Is Looking For

  • Has 5-7 years bridging technical and business teams, with a track record of implementing AI tools (LLMs, automation) in a corporate environment, preferably in energy or sustainability.
  • Combines deep understanding of the AI landscape (including APIs, agents, and analytics) with hands-on experience in vendor evaluation and governance frameworks.
  • Thrives in a remote, cross-functional setting, able to evangelize AI adoption through change management and clear communication.
  • Is comfortable with ambiguity and can prioritize opportunities that deliver quick wins while building long-term scalable solutions.

๐Ÿ“ Tips for Applying to Intersect Power

1

Highlight specific examples of AI tool implementations you've led, including metrics on adoption or efficiency gains.

2

Mention any experience with responsible AI policies or data privacy frameworks, as governance is a key responsibility.

3

Show how you've partnered with non-technical teams (e.g., marketing, operations) to identify AI opportunities.

4

Tailor your resume to emphasize program management and change management skills, not just technical expertise.

5

In your cover letter, connect your work to Intersect Power's mission of low-carbon solutionsโ€”e.g., how AI can optimize renewable energy operations.

โœ‰๏ธ What to Emphasize in Your Cover Letter

['Your ability to translate business needs into technical requirements and drive AI adoption across departments.', 'Experience with governance and responsible AI, especially in a regulated or mission-critical industry like energy.', 'Passion for sustainability and how AI can accelerate clean energy solutions.', 'Concrete examples of leading change management and promoting AI awareness within an organization.']

โš ๏ธ Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Being too technical without demonstrating business acumenโ€”this role requires bridging both worlds.
