Job Description
VP of Product & Engineering for AGent Energy optimizing distributed generation resources and driving product development. Leading engineering efforts and building innovative solutions in a fast-paced environment.
Responsibilities:
- Own the product roadmap end-to-end: from customer discovery through prioritization, specification, and delivery
- Conduct regular customer interviews and work closely with the Sales and Energy Markets teams to identify and prioritize the features and functions that drive the most value
- Translate customer needs and market requirements into clear, actionable product specs and engineering priorities
- Build and maintain a structured, transparent roadmap that aligns the full leadership team on what's being built, why, and when
- Partner with Sales and Customer Operations to ensure new features are communicated, adopted, and driving outcomes for customers
- Partner with the Sales team to demo the platform to prospects and customers — you are a credible, compelling voice for what AGent has built and where it's going
- Make crisp prioritization decisions: you know how to say no, and how to explain why
- Lead, develop, and grow a team of engineers and product managers — people who have worked with you before would follow you anywhere
- Establish and maintain the engineering cadence: sprint planning, standups, retrospectives, on-time delivery, and accountability
- Own the technology architecture: ensure AGent's platform is built to scale, secure, and capable of supporting 24/7 mission-critical operations
- Identify and manage technology outsourcing partnerships that supplement AGent's internal capabilities
- Make fast, sound build-vs-buy-vs-partner decisions that optimize for speed, cost, and long-term scalability
- Develop and maintain unit economics for the technology platform (hardware BOM, cloud infrastructure costs, etc.)
- Bring the operational structure and planning rigor that keeps engineering on schedule and leadership informed
- Create and maintain tight delivery timelines — and hold the team accountable to them
- Identify and resolve blockers early; surface risks to the CEO before they become problems
- Ensure interim solutions and partners are in place wherever needed to support concurrent sales and customer commitments
- Report regularly to the board and leadership team on technology roadmap, product milestones, and team performance
Requirements:
- 5+ years of experience as a VP of Product, VP of Engineering, CTO, or senior technology leadership role at a high-growth technology company
- Demonstrated product management background — you have built and owned roadmaps, conducted customer discovery, and made prioritization decisions under pressure
- Proven track record of shipping product on time, managing engineering teams with discipline, and creating operational structure in fast-moving environments
- Strong system architecture and design instincts: you know how to build platforms that scale
- Comfortable and confident presenting and demoing the platform externally to prospects, customers, and partners: you can translate technical capability into business value in the room
- Experience building and leading cross-functional teams of engineers and product managers
- Exceptional communicator: you can present to a board, interview a customer, and give a junior engineer clear feedback, all in the same day
- Comfortable operating in a fast-paced, remote, startup environment where self-initiative is essential
- Deep passion for technology and energy
Benefits:
- Competitive base salary, performance bonus, and early-stage equity
- 100% employer-paid Health, Dental, and Vision premiums for full-time employees
- Two health plan options: traditional plan with FSA, or HDHP with company-funded HSA
- Basic Term Life Insurance + voluntary insurance options
- Flexible PTO
- Fully remote — work from anywhere in the U.S.
- Direct access to the founding team and real ownership of your work from day one
- A front-row seat to the energy transition
