ON.energy is building the power infrastructure that makes the AI era possible. As AI demand surges past what the grid and traditional data centers can support, ON.energy provides a new class of power technology proven at gigawatt scale and trusted by the worlds leading cloud and AI companies. Our systems are already deployed across 2.5 GW of hyper-scale campuses, validated by top U.S. national labs, and certified for grid-safe operation by major utilities. With real products in the field, were scaling faster than the grid can, transforming power from a bottleneck into a competitive advantage for the companies building the future.
The Opportunity As Director of Policy, you will define and execute ON.energys grid and regulatory strategy at a time when large load growth, interconnection reform, and reliability standards are being rewritten in real time.
This role sits at the intersection of policy strategy, regulatory process and power engineering. At its core, it is an education/advocacy role. You will interact with ISOs, RTOs, utilities, regulators, and policymakers to enable them to understand how On.energys technology uniquely supports grid reliability and power quality, and how large, flexible loads can be integrated responsibly.
You will partner with the ON.energy COO, CTO, Sales, and CEO to define our market and policy strategy and own execution across ISO territories. Your mandate is to proactively educate and advocate for the wholesale electric market policies, shape technical narratives, and ensure ON.energy is correctly understood in the rooms where energy polict is set.
What Youll Do
Educate the Grid
Serve as ON.energys policy voice in ISO/RTO stakeholder processes, technical committees, and tariff proceedings.
Clearly explain how energy policy should consider and value that On.energys MV UPS addresses grid challenges such as short circuit ratios, voltage and frequency ride-through, reactive power support, and grid-forming vs. grid-following controls.
Develop technical briefs, presentations, and comment letters that make complex engineering concepts accessible to regulators and policymakers.
Shape the Technical Narrative
Lead policy engagement for On.energy in regulatory rulemaking and tariff stakeholder proceedings related to large load interconnection, inverter-based resource standards, voltage ride-through, and system strength.
Proactively identify upcoming NERC, FERC, ISO, and state rulemakings that affect large load integration and help frame the conversation early.
Partner with the CTO to ensure our product capabilities are accurately represented in planning studies and regulatory discussions.
Strategy & Execution
Own ON.energys ISO/RTO engagement strategy across key markets (e.g., ERCOT, PJM, MISO, SPP).
Embed regulatory and grid requirements early in engineering design and customer contracting.
Identify regulatory risks early and resolve them before they slow deployment.
Industry Leadership
Build trusted relationships with ISO leadership, FERC staff, state regulators, and utility engineering teams.
Participate in technical working groups and conferences to elevate us as a credible, policy-first voice on large load integration.
