How to Apply for Utility Integration Program Manager

at EnergyHub

🏢 About EnergyHub

EnergyHub is a leader in the clean energy transition, enabling utilities to integrate distributed energy resources (DERs) like smart thermostats and EV chargers into the grid. Their platform manages millions of devices, making them a key player in decarbonization and grid modernization. Working here means contributing to a sustainable future while collaborating with top utility and technology partners.

About This Role

As the Utility Integration Program Manager, you'll own the end-to-end integration of EnergyHub's platform with utility systems (e.g., CIS, DERMS) and vendor APIs. You'll manage multiple projects simultaneously, from discovery to launch, ensuring seamless connectivity for demand response and distributed energy programs. Your work directly impacts the reliability of clean energy resources and the success of utility clients.

💡 A Day in the Life

A typical day might start with a stand-up with your integration team to review project timelines, followed by a call with a utility client to discuss API requirements and milestones. You'll then update project plans in Jira, draft a playbook for a new integration type, and end the day by reviewing test results with a vendor partner to ensure on-time launch.
