AI Engineer

Powertown is hiring an AI Engineer to build map-based intelligence for battery storage development. This role is for someone who can find signals in messy infrastructure data and turn it into a product advantage. The goal is simple: help Powertown see better sites across the US, faster.

• Turn scattered infrastructure data into a living map of opportunity
• Build systems that rank, enrich, and explain prospects
• Extract signal from land, grid, utility, market, and spatial data
• Use agents to compress research loops that usually take days
• Create workflows that help the team notice what others miss
• Make maps feel intelligent, not decorative

Computer Science, Data Science, Artificial Intelligence, Electrical Engineering, Energy Systems, Physics, GIS, or a similarly analytical field with strong technical ability.

• You are part engineer, part detective, part strategist
• You enjoy messy data because you know that is where the advantage is. You can look at a map and ask better questions than “what layer should we add?”
• You are not building dashboards. You are building a machine for discovering opportunity

• Experience with geospatial systems, infrastructure datasets, utility data, energy markets, site selection, ranking systems, AI-assisted research, data extraction, or large messy public/commercial datasets
• Evidence of unusual initiative through shipped projects, research, startup work, competitions, technical writing, or self-directed data products
• Exceptional ability exemplified through personal projects
