🏢 About Kaluza

Kaluza is a unique company at the intersection of energy and technology, specifically focused on empowering energy suppliers with intelligent software to drive decarbonization. Unlike traditional energy companies, Kaluza operates as a tech-first SaaS platform, making it an exciting place for professionals who want to contribute to climate solutions through innovation. The company's mission to modernize the energy grid while supporting global sustainability goals creates a compelling purpose-driven work environment.

About This Role

This Internal Communications Manager role involves translating Kaluza's technical strategy into human-centric narratives for global employees while leading the evolution of internal communication platforms. The position is impactful because it directly partners with the Executive Team to shape company culture and ensure alignment across international time zones during rapid growth. You'll be pioneering AI/AGI tools to personalize messaging and measure employee sentiment in real-time.

💡 A Day in the Life

A typical day might start with reviewing real-time employee sentiment data from AI tools, then collaborating with the Chief Growth Officer to refine messaging around a technical milestone. You'd likely spend midday coaching your team on implementing a new communication platform while preparing executive narratives for an all-hands meeting. The afternoon could involve analyzing engagement metrics across time zones and exploring new AGI tools to personalize wellness communications for global teams.
