About Voltus
Voltus represents the "potential of us" to better manage energy through simple, cost-free energy management products. Our commercial and industrial customers generate cash by allowing us to be their energy expert while we deliver innovative demand response, energy purchasing, and energy efficiency programs to them. We hire teammates who are bright, gritty, and good and who have a genuine passion for delivering a cleaner energy future and for working in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment.
The Role
Voltus is hiring a whip-smart, entrepreneurial, proud energy nerd with an unparalleled desire to learn about energy markets and demand side management. The intern will be working with the energy markets teams, who are responsible for helping our customers profit from their involvement in these energy markets.

We are hiring for one Energy Markets Intern serving the NYISO market and one Energy Markets Technical Intern serving internal tooling and automation needs across all markets. Please specify in your application if you would like to be considered for only one of these positions.
We are looking for a full-time summer intern to begin in May or June! We will work with you to help grow your knowledge base of the energy industry, while improving on your process improvement, operational, and analytical skillset.

- Support the identification and evaluation of market opportunities by conducting regulatory and market research, tackling open-ended questions, and summarizing findings succinctly
- Assist with project management and execution of market activities including registrations, dispatches and settlements.
- A knack for analyzing large datasets in Excel and utilizing a business analysis skillset to turn findings in tangible action
- Proficiency at Microsoft Office
- Experience with Salesforce is a plus but not required
- Proficiency in python is required for applicants to the Technical Internship. Python R, SQL or similar coding experience is a plus but not required for the NYISO Internship
Please note that at this time, we do not sponsor visas or transfers for new hires. Voltus teammates need to be authorized to work from their home location (in the US or Canada, unless otherwise indicated on the role description).
Additionally, while Voltus is an all-remote workplace, we have limitations on where employees are able to work for regulatory and security reasons. We expect that Voltans are working primarily from their home country. Working while traveling to other countries must be approved as per our Global Remote Travel Policy.
At Voltus, we are proud to be an equal opportunity employer because we recognize that a diverse organization begins with a diverse candidate pool.
