Job Details

Company

Satoshi Energy is at the forefront of energy innovation, championing the colocation of AI and bitcoin data centers with renewable energy assets. As the first mover in 2018, we have developed nearly 500 MW of data centers in ERCOT, with an additional 5 GWs of data center projects under development.

Building on learnings from our extensive development business, we are pursuing an even larger opportunity - fast, accurate, and transparent energy transactions. Data centers and energy suppliers are limited by antiquated information technology and information asymmetry. Energy transactions are slow, opaque, and inefficient, creating friction between buyers and sellers, and ultimately increasing risk and cost. Our software solution, Bitcurrent, enables data centers to transact automatically, 24/7, with digital money.

There will be a future where every kilowatt-hour delivered to energy consumers is settled instantaneously - Satoshi Energy is building this future today.
