Director of Advanced Solutions Engineering

ON.energy is setting the standard for large load interconnection. ON's patented AI UPS™ is a medium-voltage UPS that serves as a firewall, protecting the data center from the grid, and the grid from the data center. With multiple gigawatts currently under construction, we are enabling grid-safe data centers.

### Role Summary

Our Director of Advanced Solutions Engineering will lead the integration and validation of advanced power and energy technologies across microgrids, functional testbeds, first-of-kind commissioning, and complex commercial deployments. They will establish an execution-focused R&D vertical that connects product development, controls, power systems, commissioning, operations, suppliers, laboratories, and customers. While they build and lead the integration team, including the technologist responsible for scouting and evaluating emerging technologies they will also serve as a senior engineering interface for strategic partners and stakeholders.

### Key Responsibilities

New Solutions and Micro-grid Integration

• Define integrated solutions combining BESS, PCS, generation, switchgear, transformers, protection, EMS, communications, and customer loads.
• Lead grid-connected and islanded controls architecture, operating modes and sequences, control priorities, protection and coordination, and recovery sequences.
• Take technical ownership of high-complexity programs involving new products, new controls, nonstandard architectures, or first-of-kind applications.
• Set technical ownership, interfaces, deliverables, acceptance criteria, decision rights, and escalation paths across internal and external teams.

Testbed Development and Validation

• Coordinate with test and modeling teams to grow laboratory and partner-facility environments that reproduce commercial electrical, controls, communications, protection, and operational behavior.
• Define configurations, instrumentation, procedures, data requirements,
