How we know
It hasn't been reposted, listed twice, or left up unusually long, and the posting doesn't say it's a talent pool.
Ghostless records the day it first sees a posting, so a repost can't reset its age. This one was already up when Ghostless started tracking Powertown, so its true age is longer.

Not stated: Pay, real vacancy, AI screening.
Why these three
Ontario requires postings from employers with 25 or more staff to state the pay, whether the vacancy exists, and whether AI screens applicants.
Some employers add pay only on their own site. Check the original posting before you rule it out.

About the role
Overview
Powertown is hiring Machine Learning Engineers and Interns to build intelligence systems for battery storage and the electric grid. This role is about grid infrastructure, peak shaving, utility data, storage economics, asset behavior, forecasting, optimization, and agentic workflows. We are not looking for someone who simply trains models. We are looking for people who can invent new ways for AI, data, and software to make Powertown better at finding, evaluating, and operating storage assets.
What you'll do
- Build intelligence around peak shaving, load behavior, utility signals, and storage opportunities
- Create agents that research, extract, compare, reason, and propose next steps
- Turn grid data into decision systems
- Use AI aggressively, then audit it ruthlessly
- Invent workflows the industry does not yet have
Preferred majors
Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Data Science, Applied Math, Statistics, Electrical Engineering, Energy Systems, Operations Research, Power Systems, Physics, or another rigorous quantitative field.
Ideal candidate
- You are a superstar technical thinker who uses ML as one of many tools
- You have very high agency. You do not wait for a clean dataset, a polished problem statement, or a perfect roadmap. You form hypotheses, build instruments, test ideas, and keep moving
- You are AI-first but not AI-reliant. You use agents, LLMs, automation, and modern tools to move faster, but your own judgment stays in charge
- You are drawn to the grid because it is physical, messy, high-stakes, and full of hidden leverage
Preferred qualifications
- Evidence of exceptional ability: original research, serious side projects, open-source work, startup building, competitions, technical writing, or shipped systems
- Experience with energy storage, utility data, tariffs, load analysis, peak shaving, grid infrastructure, electricity markets, forecasting, optimization, anomaly detection, agentic workflows, or AI-assisted research systems
- Exceptional ability exemplified through personal projects
