Culture

Culture

At PowerLight Technologies, we look for people who have three distinct characteristics: they are humble, hungry, and smart (not just in their area of expertise, but in common sense about people). 

We value academic chops, people who are unfazed by equations, analysis, technical papers, and mastering something completely new. Our culture is one of urgency, accountability, and teamwork, with a healthy sense of fun and a passion for science. We show up prepared, engage in healthy debate, embrace deadlines, and make sure that our workplace feels energizing.

Our team promotes respect, fosters conversation and debate, and keeps a healthy sense of fun within the organization.
