Toronto, Ontario, Canada Peak Power Full time
At Peak Power, we're making dirty power plants obsolete.

The current, centralized electricity system is not sustainable. Between the climate crisis, state-wide blackouts, aging infrastructure, and rising costs, the system needs a huge overhaul. The demand for electricity is high – and getting higher – and big power plants aren't meeting our needs. We say it's time to disrupt and decentralize.

At Peak Power, we're energy nerds that develop software for the real estate sector. Our tech turns commercial buildings and industrial facilities into mini, virtual power plants in a new, decentralized electricity system.

Peak Synergy is our energy efficiency software platform. It analyzes grid conditions in real-time and sends notifications for high demand hours. The platform also looks at how dirty the grid is at any moment. If a building has batteries and EVs chargers onsite, Peak Synergy manages their usage to meet sustainability goals and participate in complicated energy market programs.

Peak Synergy benefits stakeholders across the energy and building sector. Commercial real estate and industrial companies have the insights required to meet net zero goals while generating revenue and lowering operational costs. Battery developers and investors add value with a cost-effective asset operation tool. Utilities increase resiliency, accelerate renewable adoption, and defer or prevent infrastructure upgrades.

At the end of the day, this means cleaner, more reliable, and more affordable electricity for everyone. We're powering the clean energy revolution.

The Opportunity

Reporting to the Engineering Manager, the Sales Engineer will work with a talented group of Project Managers, Engineers, Business Development Mangers, and business stakeholders in a fast-paced and exciting environment. The Sales Engineer will own the intersection between the technical and the business development teams through providing technical expertise, assist with matching customer requirements and solutions, and support with the execution of deals and energy storage development activities.

This work matters. Even a small change to optimize electricity usage can significantly impact our customers, electrical grid, and environment. We're building something that will have a lasting, positive impact.

Grow. You are a critical thinker who can seize opportunities to create value for Peak Power's long-term vision for optimizing power utilization and energy storage. You will proactively identify opportunities to improve operational performance, efficiency, and scalability and contribute to Peak Power's electric asset portfolio growth.

  • Background in technical sales and / or energy project development, preferred
  • Experience with CAPEX estimation and means of methods of integrating new equipment in existing infrastructure, including major equipment and BOS / BOP for energy projects

The drive and curiosity. You have a roll-up-your-sleeves attitude and are motivated to solve problems and support the organization's success. You are passionate about contributing to innovative solutions to climate change.

The flexibility. You are flexible to adapt your activities as needed to support evolving team priorities in a rapidly changing business environment. You are comfortable with ambiguity and are willing to figure things out when there is no clear, defined path or process outlined. You have proactiveness in identifying problems & finding solutions.
