We’re a team of friends bound together by a mission to preserve our planet for future generations through innovative energy solutions and modern infrastructure. In December 2025, Google announced an agreement to acquire Intersect, to enable more data center and generation capacity to come online faster while accelerating energy development and innovation. After close, we’ll continue doing exactly what we were built to do - develop, construct, and operate the most ambitious power and data infrastructure in the country.

Intersect’s operations will remain separate from Alphabet and Google under the Intersect brand. We’re on an aggressive growth trajectory and looking for people hungry to tackle the largest energy challenges on the planet.

Location & Team Gatherings

Intersect has been a fully flexible workplace since its founding in 2016. We’ve been very intentional about the way we do things. We are not work-from-home, hybrid, or in-office - we are any and all of those options!

Deepening social connections and offering shared experiences is a cornerstone of the way we work. We connect as a team at our Team Week experiences four times a year and at our recently established Hub locations - SF Bay Area, NYC Metro Area, NY; Denver, CO; Austin, TX; Calgary, AB; and Toronto, ON.

We are currently looking for candidates located within 60 miles of any of the listed hubs to foster more in-person connections while maintaining our flexible remote culture.

About This Role

As part of Intersect’s Engineering team, you’ll help design and deliver utility-scale battery energy storage systems that enable reliable, scalable clean energy infrastructure. This role brings together system design, performance modeling, and cross-functional collaboration to ensure high-performing energy storage assets integrate seamlessly with generation and grid systems. You’ll play a key role in advancing projects from concept through execution, contributing to long-term decarbonization outcomes.

Team Overview

This team plays a critical role in advancing Intersect’s mission to accelerate the renewable energy transition by designing and delivering high-impact energy infrastructure at scale. Working at the intersection of engineering, development, and execution, the team ensures projects are optimized for performance, safety, and long-term value. Joining this team means collaborating with experts across disciplines while contributing to projects that shape the future of energy.
