About the Company

Peak Energy is the first American venture to advance globally proven sodium-ion battery systems as the storage standard for the new era of renewable energy on a resilient grid.

Sodium-ion is cheap, readily available, and safe — making it the leading contender in a rapidly evolving market.

Our leadership team is powered by decades of expertise in scaling gigawatt-level innovation at world-class companies such as Tesla, Northvolt, Apple, Powin, Enovix, Zipline, Solid Power, SunPower, and Fluence. We are backed by strategic investment and product partners including TDK Ventures, Eclipse Ventures, and GM Ventures.

We recently announced America's first sodium-ion grid storage factory in Sacramento with production starting Q1 2027, and over $1B in signed customer commitments including Jupiter Power and Energy Vault.

  • Support board bring-up, lab testing, and debugging of electrical and power electronic subsystems
  • Collaborate with cross-functional engineering teams to ensure design integrity and continuous improvement
  • Collect, analyze, and interpret electrical test data to support engineering decisions
  • Troubleshoot electrical and integration issues using standard lab equipment
  • Assist in development of test procedures and validation plans for electrical hardware
  • Support prototype builds and rapid hardware iteration cycles
  • Maintain detailed documentation of designs, tests, analyses, and corrective actions
  • Interface closely with design, firmware, simulation, and manufacturing engineering partners
  • Drive and participate in a culture of rapid prototyping and automation
  • A great team spirit and get-it-done attitude. No job is too big or too small.

Minimum Qualifications:

  • Pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field
  • Coursework or project experience in circuits, electronics, or power systems
  • Strong understanding of electrical engineering first principles
  • Experience working with hardware in laboratory or project environments
  • Familiarity with common electrical lab equipment (oscilloscope, multimeter, power supplies)
  • Exposure to data processing or analysis tools
  • Excellent problem-solving skills, with the ability to think critically and act decisively
  • Strong communication skills, with the ability to present technical information clearly
  • Ability to work collaboratively in a fast-paced, dynamic environment

Why it works

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
