Field Technician

About David Energy

David Energy is creating a new kind of power company. We offer cheaper and cleaner energy than traditional Retail Electricity Providers (REPs), and we do so economically by tapping into renewable supply (e.g., solar) and controllable capacity (e.g., batteries) wherever it exists, including “behind” customers’ electricity meters. We’re a Series‑A company aiming to run the grid on clean energy 24/7/365. We are rapidly scaling our "Beat the Utility" product, which guarantees small commercial customers that their total electric spend will be less than their incumbent utility.

Our technology and risk management unlock value that is not available to the utility. We are currently operating in NYC (NYISO Zone J) and are scaling toward hundreds of new customer locations per month, with plans to expand to additional zones and ISOs across the Northeast.

We are seeking a Field Technician to help deploy and activate battery systems across our growing customer base. This role is responsible for on‑site assessment, installation, and integration of batteries to connect customers to the David Energy platform. Field Technicians perform the hands‑on work that turns a signed customer into an operational energy asset delivering real savings. You will work closely with our customer success, product operations, and engineering teams to ensure installations are executed safely, reliably, and according to company playbooks.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys technical work in the field, troubleshooting real‑world systems, and helping build the operational foundation of a rapidly scaling energy company.
