Exowatt is revolutionizing the energy landscape for the AI era with our groundbreaking P3 system that captures solar energy, stores it as heat, and generates electricity on demand. Founded in 2023 and backed by leading investors including Andreessen Horowitz, Sam Altman, and Felicis, we're committed to providing clean, modular, and scalable power that meets the rapidly growing demands of AI infrastructure. Our mission is to make sustainable renewable energy always available and almost free, enabling technological advancement while protecting our planet. We are seeking an experienced Lead Power Systems Engineer to own the balance of plant (BoP) design and integration of our Exowatt P3 modules into customer sites. This role will be responsible for ensuring seamless integration of our modules into various grid, behind-the-meter, and microgrid configurations. This highly cross-functional position requires collaboration across engineering, customers, EPCs, and developer partners to ensure successful deployment of our systems. The ideal candidate will have experience in microgrid design, power generation projects, and grid interconnection with a deep understanding of power systems engineering principles. This position is based in Miami, FL. If selected, relocation to Miami, FL is required. Exowatt provides relocation assistance. Key Responsibilities: Balance of Plant (BoP) Design:
Lead the design and specification of electrical balance of plant components, including transformers, switchgear, inverters, and protection systems. System Integration:
Ensure seamless integration of P3 modules with customer infrastructure, microgrids, and utility grids, optimizing for efficiency, reliability, and compliance. Interconnection & Compliance:
Develop interconnection strategies for various applications, ensuring compliance with IEEE 1547, UL 1741, NEC, and local utility interconnection requirements. Microgrid & Power Distribution Design:
Design and model microgrids and distributed energy systems, integrating power electronics, load management, and grid synchronization. Cross-Functional Collaboration:
Work closely with internal engineering teams, EPCs, developers, and customers to align technical requirements, coordinate project execution, and resolve integration challenges. Power System Modeling & Analysis:
Utilize tools such as ETAP, PSCAD, PSS/E, or PowerWorld to analyze power flows, short circuit scenarios, transient stability, and protection coordination. Protection & Control Strategies:
Define protection schemes, relay settings, and control logic to ensure system stability, grid compliance, and operational safety. Testing & Commissioning:
Support commissioning and validation of P3 deployments, ensuring systems meet performance and reliability expectations. Technical Documentation:
Develop engineering specifications, single-line diagrams (SLDs), protection coordination studies, and technical reports to support system deployment and operation. Qualifications: Educational Background:
BS, MS, or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Power Systems Engineering, or a related field. Experience:
7+ years of experience in power systems engineering, microgrid design, or power generation projects. Technical Proficiency:
Deep knowledge of power electronics, transformers, switchgear, protective relays, inverters, and power system stability. Microgrid & Renewable Integration:
Experience integrating solar, battery storage, or thermal power generation into islanded and grid-connected microgrid architectures. Regulatory & Standards Knowledge:
Familiarity with IEEE 1547, UL 1741 SA, NFPA 70 (NEC), FERC/NERC standards, and utility interconnection processes. Simulation & Analysis:
Proficiency in ETAP, PSCAD, PSS/E, PowerWorld, HOMER, or similar modeling tools for power system design and grid integration. Project Execution:
