Product Manager, Virtual Power Plant

GoodLeap is a technology company delivering best-in-class financing and software products for sustainable solutions, from solar panels and batteries to energy-efficient HVAC, heat pumps, roofing, windows, and more. Over 1 million homeowners have benefited from our simple, fast, and frictionless technology that makes the adoption of these products more affordable, accessible, and easier to understand. Thousands of professionals deploying home efficiency and solar solutions rely on GoodLeap's proprietary, AI-powered applications and developer tools to drive more transparent customer communication, deeper business intelligence, and streamlined payment and operations. Our platform has led to more than $30 billion in financing for sustainable solutions since 2018.

GoodLeap is also proud to support our award-winning nonprofit, GivePower, which is building and deploying life-saving water and clean electricity systems, changing the lives of more than 1.6 million people across Africa, Asia, and South America.

At GoodLeap, we're driven by a relentless pursuit of innovation. Our passion lies in exploring the forefront of technology, identifying emerging opportunities, and creating solutions that tackle the challenges of tomorrow. Like a startup, we embrace an entrepreneurial mindset, pushing boundaries to bring our company into new territories and develop revolutionary products.

We're looking for a mission-driven Product Manager to lead the automation of critical operational workflows tied to our Virtual Power Plant platform. Today, each time we dispatch an event, our team executes a highly manual sequence of tasks including participant targeting, pre-event optimizations, real-time monitoring, and post-event reporting. These workflows are essential to maximizing performance and ensuring timely, accurate reporting for internal stakeholders and external energy partners.

As our VPP business rapidly scales, we need a product leader who can turn these operational pain points into seamless, automated product experiences. You'll work at the intersection of Product, Data, Engineering, and Operations to build tools and systems that increase efficiency, unlock insights, and drive dispatch success at scale.

Essential Job Duties & Responsibilities :

  • Contribute to and drive the roadmap for VPP operational automation and platform capabilities
  • Identify and automate manual workflows tied to enrollments, dispatch planning, real-time monitoring, and post-event reporting
  • Coordinate and execute day-of operations for VPP events across ISO / RTO markets (e.g., CAISO, ISO-NE, ERCOT, PJM)
  • Monitor real-time performance during events and escalate operational issues or anomalies
  • Build tooling to help our operations run events more efficiently, at greater scale, and effectiveness
  • Track and improve key KPIs like dispatch success rate, participation, DER utilization, operational turnaround time, and reporting efficiency

Required Skills, Knowledge & Abilities :

  • 35 years of product management experience, ideally in energy, grid operations, DER aggregation, SaaS platforms, or other data-rich environments
  • Technical understanding of distributed energy systems, including inverters, battery storage, and smart thermostats
  • Hands-on experience with VPP operations, demand response, and DER technologies like solar, battery storage, electric vehicles, and load controls
  • Familiarity with energy markets, including wholesale and ancillary services, and exposure to policy, compliance, or standards development
  • Strong systems thinker and workflow optimizer, skilled at mapping complex processes and simplifying them through automation and smart tooling
  • Experience managing operational workflows, building standard operating procedures (SOPs), and developing internal tools or dashboards to support scale
  • Excellent communicator and collaborator, equally comfortable with engineers, analysts, operators, and cross-functional partners
  • Working knowledge of ISO / RTO rules, telemetry requirements, and participation models for DERs and VPPs
  • Degree in engineering, energy systems, or a technical field, or equivalent practical experience
  • $138,000 - $160,000 a year. In addition to the above salary, this role may be eligible for a bonus.

    Job duties include additional responsibilities as assigned by one's supervisor or other managers related to the position / department. This job description is meant to describe the general nature and level of work being performed; it is not intended to be construed as an exhaustive list of all responsibilities, duties and other skills required for the position. The Company reserves the right at any time with or without notice to alter or change job responsibilities, reassign or transfer job position or assign additional job responsibilities, subject to applicable law. The Company shall provide reasonable accommodations of known disabilities to enable a qualified applicant or employee to apply for employment, perform the essential functions of the job, or enjoy the benefits and privileges of employment as required by the law.
