About the Role

We are seeking a Summer Electrical Engineering/Power System Intern to support our team working on data center and renewable energy (solar + BESS) projects. This role offers experience in large‑scale power systems, high‑voltage infrastructure, renewable energy and data center electrical design, with exposure to real engineering workflows and cross‑team coordination.

Key Responsibilities

  • Support development of single‑line diagrams (SLDs) and conceptual electrical designs.
  • Assist in power system design and analysis for data centers and renewable energy projects.
  • Help improve coordination between the high‑voltage (HV) engineering team and the data center electrical design team.
  • Support design documentation management, ensuring clarity, consistency, and quality across engineering deliverables.
  • Help identify and implement opportunities to use AI tools to improve engineering efficiency, documentation, and design quality.
  • Participate in internal design reviews and technical discussions.

Experience You'll Gain

  • Experience with utility‑scale renewable energy and BESS integration.
  • Understanding of HV/MV system design, redundancy planning, and grid interconnection.
  • Practical exposure to bridging data center engineering and utility power systems.
  • Hands‑on exposure to AI‑assisted engineering workflows and digital design transformation.

Requirements

  • Pursuing a degree in Electrical Engineering (junior, senior, or graduate level).
  • Familiarity with data center electrical design concepts, including power distribution systems and redundancy design (N, N+1, 2N architectures).
  • Basic understanding of HV/MV systems and ability to support calculation of redundancy and system reliability in electrical and HV architectures.
  • Familiarity with engineering tools such as AutoCAD.
  • Strong communication skills and ability to work across engineering teams.
  • Interest in grid reliability, system redundancy, and resilience design.
  • Exposure to energy storage systems, backup power, or mission‑critical infrastructure.
  • Interest in applying AI/automation to engineering workflows.

Location

San Francisco, CA; San Diego, CA; Denver, CO. Denver is preferred. We have a hybrid office set up.

Compensation

Hourly pay: $25-$30 per hour.
