Job Description:
Company Description
The California Independent System Operator (ISO) manages the flow
of electricity across the high-voltage, long-distance power lines
that make up 80 percent of California's power grid. We safeguard
the economy and well-being of 30 million Californians by operating
the grid reliably 24/7.
As the impartial grid operator, the California ISO opens access to
the wholesale power market that is designed to diversify resources
and lower prices. It also grants equal access to 25,865
circuit-miles of power lines and reduces barriers to diverse
resources competing to bring power to customers.
The California ISO's function is often compared to that of air
traffic controllers. It would be grossly unfair for air traffic
controllers to represent one airline and profit from allowing that
company's planes to go through before others. In the same way, the
California ISO operates independently-managing the electron traffic
on a power grid we do not own-making sure electricity is safely
delivered to utilities and consumers on time and reliably.
The California ISO is committed to the health, safety, and
work/life integration of its employees and is proud to offer
flexible work arrangements. This position would be eligible to
participate in a hybrid remote schedule (3 days in our beautiful
Folsom campus, 2 days working from home), as well as fully remote.
Relocation assistance is available.
Job Description
Under the general direction of the manager, assists in ensuring
development of high quality market design policy proposals that
receive CAISO governance and regulatory approval. As part of this,
assists in assessing market design policy development conducted by
the Market and Infrastructure Policy department to ensure that
policy initiatives 1) are consistent in approach and that
associated documentation adequately supports the proposed policy,
2) reflect best practices in other ISOs/RTOs and in non-ISO/RTO
sectors, and 3) sufficiently address primary stakeholder concerns
raised during the policy development process. Develops and/or
reviews documents and presentations.
