About the Role
We are seeking an experienced U.S.-licensed attorney specializing in energy and utilities regulation to contribute to an advanced AI training initiative.
The ideal candidate has substantial, hands-on experience advising utilities, independent power producers, or energy regulators on regulatory compliance, rate design, tariff structures, and energy market operations.
In this role, you will apply your legal expertise to evaluate complex regulatory scenarios, develop well-supported legal analyses, and review the accuracy of legal reasoning used to train next-generation AI systems. You will work with matters involving the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), state Public Utility Commissions (PUCs), and Independent System Operators/Regional Transmission Organizations (ISOs/RTOs).
No previous AI experience is required. Your practical legal expertise, analytical judgment, and ability to explain complex regulatory issues are what matter most.
