Jobs at Peak Energy

Lead Peak Energy's market entry and commercial growth in Australia by building pipeline, partnerships, and customer relationships across utilities, IPPs, C&I buyers and government. Structure and close complex battery storage contracts, align offerings with NEM/CIS dynamics, and establish local commercial infrastructure while working with internal teams and stakeholders to meet revenue targets.

Own the technical aspects of energy-storage sales opportunities from initial customer engagement through contract signature. Size and configure battery systems, build technical and financial models, lead preliminary design discussions, negotiate technical contract terms, and coordinate with customers, utilities, contractors, sales, engineering, finance, and project teams. The role also supports market analysis, product requirements, sales tools, and project handoffs.

Supports PLC, SCADA, and HMI programming, commissioning, integration, troubleshooting, maintenance, and documentation for battery energy storage manufacturing automation. Works with senior Controls, Equipment, Process, and Maintenance Engineers to improve production controls, collect manufacturing data, maintain safety interlocks, and support regulatory compliance. This entry-level role provides hands-on experience with industrial automation systems and develops independent engineering capability.

Lead end-to-end development and delivery of sodium‑ion energy storage systems across hardware and software. Build and lead a Technical Program Management team, translate strategy into plans, drive system integration, resolve technical and schedule risks, and step into critical programs to ensure production readiness, verification, manufacturability, and customer delivery.

Provide executive support to two C-suite executives (and split coverage across others) including complex calendar and travel management, meeting and board logistics, expense reconciliation, and confidential handling. Own end-to-end events: planning, budgeting, vendor management, run-of-show, on-site execution, and post-event debriefs for internal and external gatherings, plus build an events playbook.

Support integration testing and functional verification of energy storage systems, focusing on BMS, inverters, and power electronics. Help design and run benchtop and HIL test setups, develop and execute test scripts, assist in test plans, analyze data, troubleshoot issues, and collaborate with firmware, design, and manufacturing teams.

Lead and build the controls and automation function for a new 24/7, 4-shift sodium‑ion battery manufacturing facility: design PLC architecture (Beckhoff TwinCAT), run FAT/SAT, hire and manage a 7–12 person controls team, establish PLC–MES connectivity, own uptime/MTTR KPIs, create procedures and documentation, and drive automation continuous improvement.

Manage full lifecycle development of utility-scale energy storage projects from site identification and permitting through interconnection, construction, and commissioning. Own schedules, budgets, stakeholder engagement, permitting compliance, land agreements, consultant management, interconnection strategy, and reporting. Coordinate across development, engineering, finance, and external partners; travel up to ~30%.

Support mechanical design of utility-scale sodium-ion energy storage systems, collaborating with analysis, manufacturing, and test teams. Design enclosures, plastics, conductors, and harnessing; prototype, validate, and transition products to mass production while iterating through testing and field deployment.

Support testing and functional verification of energy storage systems and power electronics: develop test plans, set up and run tests, analyze data, perform root-cause investigations, design test infrastructure, collaborate with design/simulation/manufacturing teams, document results, and drive automation and improvements.

Designs and executes functional, thermal, electrical (HV/LV), and mechanical tests for energy storage systems. Develops test plans, acquires test equipment, analyzes data, diagnoses failures, drives corrective actions, and collaborates with design, simulation, and manufacturing teams to improve safety, reliability, and performance.

Lead and perform functional, thermal, electrical (HV/LV), and mechanical testing of energy storage systems. Develop test strategies, design test infrastructure, analyze data, perform root-cause analysis, and drive design improvements and automation in collaboration with design, simulation, and manufacturing teams.

Lead electrical architecture, integration, and deployment of utility-scale energy storage sites. Perform power systems studies (load flow, short-circuit, protection coordination, grounding), define integration and SCADA requirements, ensure grid-code compliance, support supplier selection, commissioning, and site issue resolution, and maintain customer-facing documentation.

Lead development and implementation of EH&S programs for battery manufacturing facilities. Conduct risk assessments, audits, permitting, incident investigations, training, PSSR reviews, and drive continuous improvement to ensure regulatory compliance and an audit-ready safety culture across multiple sites.

The Mechanical Design Intern will support mechanical designs of energy storage systems, collaborate with other teams, and drive prototyping and testing.

The Techno-Economic Product Manager develops and commercializes utility-scale battery energy storage systems, guiding product strategy through cost analysis and market assessments.

The Technical Product Manager will define product requirements, manage hardware specifications, and strategize go-to-market plans while collaborating with engineering and commercial teams.

Support manufacturing engineering to improve battery production processes, quality control, equipment evaluation, root cause analysis, documentation, and cross-functional product scale-up. Hands-on, safety-focused, continuous improvement work in a fast-scaling battery factory.

Designs, optimizes, and troubleshoots battery manufacturing processes to improve efficiency, yield, cost, and quality. Establishes quality controls, recommends equipment, ensures regulatory and safety compliance, documents procedures, trains staff, and collaborates with R&D, production, and QA to scale new products into full-scale manufacturing.

The Controller will build the accounting function, manage financial reporting and audits, lead ERP implementation, and develop a high-performing accounting team in a clean energy firm.
