About Voltus

Voltus is the leading platform connecting distributed energy resources to electricity markets, delivering less expensive, more reliable, and more sustainable electricity. Our commercial and industrial customers and grid services partners generate cash by allowing Voltus to maximize the value of their flexible load, distributed generation, energy storage, energy efficiency, and electric vehicle resources in these markets.

At Voltus, we live by the mantra “doing well by doing good” - and that includes actively doing our best by our team, clients and partners.

The Role

We're looking for a whip-smart, battery-focused Product Manager to own and scale Voltus's AI-native BESS end-to-end tooling: the product that turns the complex economics of BESS into clear, competitive proposals and equips our sales organization to win and deliver the most value to customers. This is a hands-on building role spanning the full BESS lifecycle, from initial proposal to operational, grid-participating asset. You'll work directly with the sales team and customers to find their real pain points, go deep on siting, permitting, and co-optimization, and ship the features that make batteries faster to size, easier to sell, and more valuable once they're dispatching. As a PM who builds, you'll write the PRD and help ship it, prototyping, extending the underlying AI agents, and using AI to set the bar for iterative delivery. You'll partner across Sales, Energy Markets, Partnerships, and customers to define, prioritize, and deliver.

If you've worked in the battery space as an engineer or product manager, speak the language of co-optimization fluently, and are excited about what AI agents can do in this product space, you'll thrive here.

Voltus is a fully distributed company and this job is remote, but you must be located and authorized to work within the United States or Canada.

Why This Role Matters

The energy transition runs on flexibility, and batteries are its most powerful source. As the leading virtual power plant operator, Voltus already turns distributed energy resources into cash for our customers and reliability for the grid, and storage is where we're going next.

Our Bring Your Own Capacity (BYOC) product lets hyperscalers fund capacity directly into the grid, including the first hyperscaler-funded VPP in a U.S. wholesale market, anchoring a pipeline of hundreds of MW of C&I battery storage over the next few years. You'll own the product that unlocks that pipeline and makes Voltus best-in-class on the time and cost to design, propose, and install a C&I battery. It's one of our most strategic areas of investment, sitting squarely at the intersection of the technical frontier and the company's growth thesis.

What You'll Do

Own and scale the BESS proposal-to-operation toolchain, the engine that converts the BYOC pipeline into deployed MW, and drive Voltus to best-in-class time and cost to bring a C&I battery online.

Go deep on co-optimization. Translate battery sizing, market participation, and revenue stacking across capacity and energy markets into tools that produce credible, competitive proposals quickly.

Build with AI, not just around it. Own and extend the agentic workflows at the foundation of our storage tooling, and apply AI across discovery, prototyping, and delivery.

Operate as both PM and engineer. Spec the work, prototype it, validate with customers, and iterate, staying hands-on in the product itself.

Run the program across the organization. Partner with Sales, Energy Markets, Partnerships, and customers to define, prioritize, and ship the features that accelerate BESS deployment.

What You'll Bring

3–6 years in product management, technical program management, product or hardware development, or a closely related role.

Direct experience in the battery storage space as an engineer, PM, or developer, with working fluency in co-optimization and how batteries generate value across capacity and energy markets.

Hands-on familiarity with AI agents and AI-enabled workflows. You've used them, and ideally built with them, to automate meaningful work.

Builder instincts: comfort prototyping, leveraging AI for accelerated delivery, and shipping rather than only specifying.

Strong written communication, whether a tight PRD, a clear competitive brief, or a well-structured strategy memo.

Comfort with ambiguity, the ability to drive decisions with incomplete information, and structured, analytical thinking that holds up with engineers on system-level questions.

Uncommonly driven to succeed and maniacally self-initiated.

Nice to Have

Hands-on experience with BESS procurement, project development, or system integration.

Familiarity with wholesale market mechanics and interconnection (ERCOT, CAISO, PJM, NYISO), utility tariffs, or inverter/EMS integration.

Background at an early-stage or high-growth startup; exposure to demand response, VPPs, DERMS, or energy-market software.

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. This means we do not tolerate discrimination of any kind and are committed to providing equal employment opportunities regardless of your gender identity, race, nationality, religion, age, sexual orientation, veteran status, disability status, or marital status.
