Employment Opportunities

Are you interested in working with American Indians and Alaska Natives in their pursuit for clean, affordable, reliable electricity? Do you have a bachelor's degree and a desire to work remotely in the United States? If so, you’re invited to apply to the U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Indian Energy Policy and Programs. 

We are looking for engineers to join the federal staff and contractors to support Indian tribes and Native communities in their goals to lower energy costs, increase energy security and resilience, and get electric power to unelectrified buildings through clean energy technologies.  

Preferred candidates will have experience in project management, working with (or directly for) an American Indian or Alaska Native tribal government, and working knowledge of (and experience working with) renewable energy and energy efficiency technologies.

    • Program Analyst (bachelor’s degree and a minimum of 3 years’ experience)
