About This Role

As a Senior Product Advisor for Utilities, you'll bridge client needs with technical solutions, leading meetings to understand current and future software requirements while prototyping alongside engineering teams. This role is impactful because you'll directly influence product development for transmission planning and generation interconnection software used by ISOs, utilities, and developers. You'll be responsible for both technical support and business development within this specialized energy sector.

💡 A Day in the Life

A typical day might start with reviewing interconnection study results from a utility client, then leading a virtual meeting with a renewable developer to understand their software needs. You'd spend the afternoon collaborating with engineering teams on prototyping a new feature, followed by researching emerging transmission planning requirements at specific ISOs to identify new business opportunities.
