CadenceGrid
Careers

Work on the diligence layer the energy transition actually needs.

Our practice hires senior engineers and analysts deliberately. We document our methodology publicly, and we back our people on the technical decisions that matter.

Open roles

Current openings across engineering and research.

  • Principal Power Systems Engineer

    NEM network-studies background from an IE practice or a super-fund technical team. You own the red-flag methodology: SCR at POC, system strength, constraint-equation exposure, MLF trajectory.

    Engineering
    Sydney, hybrid
    Apply

  • Senior Engineer · Agentic systems

    Python and TypeScript strong, comfortable with numerical libraries (pandapower, PyPSA) and orchestration systems. You build the inference pipeline that turns a datapack into a memo.

    Engineering
    Sydney, remote-friendly
    Apply

  • Senior Power Markets Analyst

    Ex-Cornwall Insight, Aurora, or developer-side analytics. You own revenue modelling: P10 / P50 / P90, FCAS stack, co-location economics, dispatch optimisation against NEM and ERCOT curves.

    Research
    Sydney, hybrid
    Apply

  • Engineer · Grid Integration

    Strong fundamentals in power systems, with exposure to AEMO connection processes or equivalent. You extend the red-flag engine into new network topologies and calibrate against current ISP work.

Working with the practice

A senior team with genuine ownership of the methodology.

Our engineers write methodology notes as a core part of the work, not as documentation added afterwards. Every memo is defensible under IC scrutiny because it is signed off by a senior analyst with direct technical accountability. If the idea of building the institutional diligence layer for the NEM storage transition is what you want to spend the next five years on, we would like to speak.

  • Ownership of the methodology

    You will author or materially shape the methodology our clients rely on. No black boxes, no engineering behind closed doors.

  • Senior by default

    Our practice hires senior hands, not headcount. You will be deciding what gets shipped, not waiting for approvals up the chain.

  • NEM-first, globally connected

    Sydney base, travel into ERCOT and the Gulf as client work requires. You are close to the NEM engineering ground truth every day.

  • Technical depth over motion

    We do not ship sloppy work to hit a release date. We take the time the methodology needs, and we document it.

How we hire

Three conversations, then a paid work-sample.

  1. 01.Intro call. Thirty minutes to understand fit and answer your questions on the practice.
  2. 02.Technical conversation. Deep on methodology and recent work, no whiteboard trivia.
  3. 03.Paid work-sample. A short, scoped task against real methodology work. Compensated at commercial rates.
  4. 04.Decision conversation. Offer, package and start date.

CadenceGrid is an equal-opportunity practice. We hire on methodology contribution and engineering judgement, nothing else.
