The Company You’ll Join
At Bidgely (which means “electricity” in Hindi), we work to accelerate a clean energy future by enabling energy companies and consumers to make data-driven, energy-related decisions.
We are a global company, with roots in Silicon Valley, California, and Bangalore, India. Bidgely carries over nineteen energy patents, and brings a passion for AI to utilities serving over thirty million customers worldwide!
Bidgely is an AI-powered, cloud-based SaaS solution provider that enables electric and gas utilities worldwide to personalize customer experiences, optimize grid and customer operations, and accelerate their journey toward a clean energy future.
The Energy Industry is being disrupted by several new technologies like EVs, Solar, Batteries, Smart Meters, and Smart Home devices. Consumers are becoming self-sufficient with their own energy production and storage, threatening a century-old utility business model. Additionally, the grid was not designed for the peaks created by EVs and the valleys created by solar generation which has created new challenges and opportunities for the utilities (and innovative companies) to manage an evolving grid.
The Position and the Team You’ll Work With
We are looking for a Strategy and Growth Manager who wants to make an impact on our clean energy future as part of our team! The Strategy and Growth Manager approaches the relationships between Bidgely, its potential customers, and current customers through a customer-centric consultative approach. The Strategy and Growth Manager specializes as a solutions subject matter expert to determine which products or services should be offered to which customers, when those offerings should be made, and how they should be presented. The Strategy and Growth Manager reports to the Director of Strategy & Growth and will be a key player in driving Bidgely’s market share growth alongside other team members.
