Reports to: CEO Location: Onsite in Littleton or Boulder, CO, hybrid/remote for the right candidate About Emporia Energy Emporia is a leading technology company revolutionizing home energy by providing affordable, integrated solutions that empower homeowners to optimize energy usage to reduce costs and carbon footprint. Emporia's Home Energy Management Platform is a powerful software system that connects their Vue Home Energy Monitor, Level 2 EV Charger, Smart Plugs, Home Battery, and third-party thermostats and appliances. By automating energy use through real-time monitoring and scheduling, the platform optimizes consumption, reduces costs, and simplifies home energy management-all within one intuitive app. With over 400,000 U.S. homes running Emporia's energy management and EV charging hardware, we are now launching a national Third-Party Owned (TPO) home battery Virtual Power Plant - placing industrial-rated home batteries in residential homes to deliver power redundancy, utility cost savings, and grid peak demand services. By reducing energy waste and saving customers money, we're helping create a healthier planet and a brighter future. For more information, visit emporiaenergy.com. Mission, Vision and Values Emporia was founded in 2018 with a clear purpose to revolutionize home energy, generate tangible customer savings, and accelerate the transition to a lower carbon future. We are striving to become the world's leading home energy management platform and build the largest virtual power plant. Customers First : We deliver exceptional service with empathy and responsiveness, building lasting trust in every interaction. Own the Outcome : We think like owners, taking responsibility for results and holding ourselves and each other accountable. Win Together : We succeed together through honesty, humility and humanity. Grit Gets it Done : We work hard, stay passionate, and persevere through challenges. Better Every Day : We challenge the status quo, take smart risks and aim to improve 1% every day. Why the Role Exists Emporia is an 8-year-old energy company with 400,000+ customers and the top-selling home energy management system (HEMS) and residential EV charger in the market. On that foundation, we are building a residential Virtual Power Plant (VPP) platform with Emporia PlatformCo driving the hardware/software user base, partner distribution, and program management, while Emporia TPO HoldCo provides the investment platform for SPVs that own and monetize deployed batteries. Emporia is now extending that platform into a residential TPO and Virtual Power Plant finance platform. The finance work sits at the center of the expansion: translating customer demand, product readiness, installation capacity, and grid-services revenue into portfolios that institutional capital can underwrite. The economics run through third-party ownership: with the residential homeowner credit (IRC §25D) expired as of December 31, 2025, the federal Investment Tax Credit on a home battery can be captured by the business owner of the asset - the SPV holding the deployed batteries - and monetized through tax equity and/or §6418 transfer sales. This leader will own the financial engine across HoldCo/SPV modeling, tax equity, ITC transfers, common/project equity, debt, fund governance, and investor reporting as deployments move from launch to ramp. This is the senior finance owner for the TPO business, working as a peer to Ops, Product, Marketing, and Program. Ops owns install, Product sources and prepares batteries, Marketing signs up customers, and Program coordinates execution; this role turns those operating inputs into bankable unit economics, fundable portfolios, clean entity flows, and board/investor-ready capital plans.
