About the Role
The Technical Business Development Strategist bridges electricity market, economic, regulatory, and technical expertise with business development to help EPE identify, shape, and pursue strategic opportunities across the North American energy industry. This role uses industry expertise and market intelligence to identify where regulatory, market, policy, and investment changes are creating client needs, determine where EPE can provide value, establish relationships with decision-makers, and develop those needs into qualified opportunities.

- Understand and effectively communicate EPE’s EMA and Regulatory capabilities.
- Understand the business applications of market simulation platforms such as PLEXOS, PROMOD, UPLAN, and Market N*Sight and recognize when EPE’s modeling capabilities can address client needs.
- Ask informed technical, economic, regulatory, and strategic questions to uncover client challenges and identify opportunities for broader EPE support.
- Recognize opportunities requiring integrated EMA, Regulatory, Transmission Planning, or other EPE capabilities.
- Lead white-space development for EMA and Regulatory, identifying organizations where EPE has limited or no existing presence and developing strategies to establish relationships and create opportunities.
- Research target organizations and identify the appropriate decision-makers and influencers.
- Leverage industry experience, professional networks, EPE relationships, stakeholder groups, conferences, and other industry forums to establish meaningful paths into target organizations.
- Develop client engagement strategies based on known challenges, market and regulatory drivers, relevant EPE capabilities, competitive considerations, and relationship gaps.
- Partner with Account Managers to identify opportunities to expand EMA and Regulatory services within existing EPE accounts.
- Represent EPE at targeted industry conferences, ISO/RTO stakeholder meetings, regulatory forums, working groups, and client engagements.
- Convert identified market signals and client needs into qualified business opportunities.
- Translate client challenges into preliminary scopes, analytical approaches, deliverables, assumptions, schedules, and resource requirements.
- Independently develop substantial portions of technical proposals and scopes of work.
- Lead or support pursuit strategy, positioning, differentiators, win themes, and technical messaging.
- Participate in RFP reviews and bid/no-bid decisions.
- Maintain continuity from initial market signal through client engagement, opportunity development, proposal development, and handoff to the delivery organization.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Economics, Finance, Energy, Public Policy, Business, or another discipline relevant to electricity markets and the energy industry.
- 7+ years of experience in electricity markets, utility strategy, regulatory affairs, energy economics, resource planning, ISO/RTO operations, energy consulting, project development, or a related field.

- Strong understanding of North American electricity markets and the interaction among market structures, regulation, transmission, generation, load, and investment decisions.
- Experience developing technical or advisory scopes, proposals, analyses, recommendations, regulatory materials, or similar client deliverables.
- Working knowledge of wholesale electricity markets, ISO/RTO structures, energy and capacity markets, production cost modeling, congestion, resource adequacy, market participation, settlements, and transmission economics.
- Familiarity with FERC, state utility commissions, ISO/RTO tariffs and market rules, regulatory proceedings, and interconnection policy.
- Ability to interpret market studies, regulatory filings, tariffs, planning documents, and industry developments and identify potential consulting opportunities.
- Ability to connect market and regulatory developments to clients’ financial, operational, planning, and investment needs.
- Strong consultative communication and relationship-building skills with the ability to engage technical, regulatory, commercial, and executive stakeholders.
- Ability to independently research target organizations, identify the right stakeholders, secure meetings, uncover needs, and advance opportunities.
- Strong technical and business writing skills with the ability to develop scopes of work, proposals, presentations, and client-facing materials.
- Ability to work independently while collaborating effectively across Business Development, EMA, Regulatory, Transmission Planning, and other EPE practices.
