📝 Tips for Applying to Soluna
Tailor your resume to highlight any ERCOT-specific experience, even if it's from coursework or internships, and quantify your achievements in managing interconnection projects.
In your cover letter, explicitly mention your familiarity with ERCOT protocols and large load interconnection, and express genuine enthusiasm for the renewable energy and blockchain intersection.
Research Soluna's current projects and recent news, and mention specific ones in your application to show you've done your homework and are genuinely interested in their work.
Since the role is remote, emphasize your ability to work independently and manage time effectively, providing examples of successful remote collaboration.
Highlight any experience with regulatory filings, TDSP coordination, or grid integration software, as these are directly relevant to the role.
✉️ What to Emphasize in Your Cover Letter
["Your understanding of ERCOT's interconnection process and how your experience aligns with the role's responsibilities.", "Your passion for renewable energy and blockchain, and why Soluna's mission resonates with you.", 'Your project management skills, especially in tracking complex milestones and coordinating with multiple stakeholders.', 'Your ability to thrive in a remote, fast-paced startup environment and contribute to a collaborative team.']
Generate Cover Letter →🔍 Research Before Applying
To stand out, make sure you've researched:

⚠️ Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't submit a generic cover letter that doesn't mention ERCOT or Soluna specifically; this shows a lack of genuine interest.
