About Us GridCARE is a leading venture-backed startup solving the most critical constraint in AI’s growth trajectory: immediate access to power. As demand for computing skyrockets, access to energy has become the defining bottleneck in the AI infrastructure race. While leading tech companies invest billions in speculative, long-term solutions that may take decades to arrive, GridCARE’s pioneering physics-based generative AI platform unlocks gigawatts of hidden capacity in today’s electric grid — enabling hyperscalers, data center developers, and utilities to power AI infrastructure years sooner than conventional approaches and without costly upgrades.

Founded at Stanford’s Doerr School of Sustainability and backed by leading climate-tech and deep-tech investors, GridCARE has assembled a world-class team spanning power systems, AI, and infrastructure.

At GridCARE, you will:

⚡ Work at the intersection of AI, energy, and infrastructure — the foundation of the next industrial revolution.

🤝 Partner with hyperscalers, developers, and utilities on high-impact, real-world deployments. 🌎 Help shape a more abundant, efficient, and resilient energy future for the digital era.

🚀 Join a company defining a new category — capacity acceleration for AI. 💰 Receive competitive compensation, equity, and benefits in a fast-growth, mission-driven environment.

Job Description The Industry Solutions Implementation Director will own the successful execution of GridCARE’s customer and utility-facing programs, serving as the single threaded owner responsible for delivery, coordination, and outcomes. This role involves working cross-functionally across the business and technical teams to ensure GridCARE’s flexible capacity and grid-optimization solutions are successfully deployed with hyperscalers, data center developers, and electric utilities.

You will frame commercial agreements and technical concepts into executable programs driving project scope, timelines, managing dependencies, mitigating risk, and aligning stakeholders across GridCARE, utility partners, and customers. This role requires strong program leadership, comfort operating in ambiguity, and the ability to work hands-on with engineers, executives, and external partners in a fast-moving startup environment.

Responsibilities

• Own end-to-end project execution for customer and utility deployments from contract signature through project implementation.

Qualifications Required

• 8+ years of experience in technical program management, project delivery, or implementation within the utilities or electric power industry.
• Direct experience with electric utilities, ISOs or power system consulting firms on transmission, distribution, planning, or operations-related engagements, driving successful post-sale engineering solutions and implementations.
• Proven ownership of complex, multi-stakeholder project delivery with clear accountability for outcomes.
• Ability to operate effectively in ambiguity and evolving processes and priorities within a startup or high-growth environment.
• Strong ability to frame technical and commercial requirements into executable plans and operational processes.

Preferred

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Power Systems or Advanced Engineering programs.
• Understand the power system's ISO and utility constraints and pain points.
• Experience in managing electric power system projects and studies, including, but not limited to, power system steady state analysis, transient stability, short-circuit studies, and protection coordination.
• Comprehensive understanding of the power system process and regulatory requirements, such as the generation/load interconnection process, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) regulations, and North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) standards.
• Familiarity with data centers, hyperscaler infrastructure, or large energy-intensive customers.

What we offer

• Competitive salary, performance bonus, and equity.
• Comprehensive health, dental, and vision coverage.
• Lunch provided three days a week in office.
• Hybrid schedule: 3 days in office for collaboration, 2 days remote for focused work.
• Access to leading academic, industry, and government partners in the AI-energy ecosystem.
• A mission-driven team focused on shaping the future of the energy transition.
