The role drives TPV efficiency improvements, documents processes, trains users, and collaborates cross-functionally to transition R&D processes toward production.

Leads end-to-end multijunction III-V thermophotovoltaic epitaxy development, including experimental campaign design, supplier management, characterization, data analysis, and cost optimization. Owns make-versus-buy decisions for in-house epitaxy, qualifies suppliers, manages InP substrate sourcing, and negotiates commercial terms. The role also supports facility and reactor planning, team development, safety, equipment maintenance, and long-term supply agreements.

Build and maintain full-stack software products across frontend, backend, data, and AI layers. Own product architecture, deployment, observability, reliability, and maintenance; establish unified data models, secure access controls, AI guardrails, and engineering standards. Collaborate directly with non-engineering users to create self-service workflows and translate ambiguous needs into practical solutions. Ship production LLM-powered systems and support governed data transformation, quality, lineage, and testing.

Build and lead Antora Energy’s process safety program for thermal energy storage facilities. Facilitate PHAs, including HAZOP, What-If, and LOPA; manage MOC and PSSR processes; maintain process safety information; support operating procedures, mechanical integrity, incident investigations, training, and emergency response. Partner with engineering, operations, R&D, and leadership during design reviews, track safety metrics, and translate process safety standards into practical guidance.

The role involves designing and prototyping mechanical systems for thermal batteries, leading engineering efforts, and mentoring junior staff.

The Principal, Power Procurement leads utility tariff negotiations, originates off-take agreements, mentors deal leads, and builds relationships with utilities while setting high deal standards.
