Who We Are
Arcadia is the technology company empowering energy innovators and consumers to fight the climate crisis. Our software and APIs are revolutionizing an industry held back by outdated systems and institutions by creating unprecedented access to the data and clean energy needed to make a decarbonized energy grid possible.
In 2014, Arcadia set out on its mission to break the fossil fuel monopoly and since then we have been knocking down the institutional barriers to unlock decarbonization. To date, we have connected hundreds of thousands of consumers and small businesses with high-quality clean energy options. Fast forward to today, and now, we’re thinking even bigger. We have launched Arc, an industry-defining SaaS platform that empowers developers and energy innovators to deliver their own custom, personalized energy experiences, accelerating the transformation of the industry from an analog energy system into a digitized information network.
Tackling one of the world’s biggest challenges requires out-of-the-box thinking & diverse perspectives. We’re building a team of individuals from different backgrounds, industries, & educational experiences. If you share our passion for ushering in the era of the clean electron, we look forward to learning what you would uniquely bring to Arcadia!
What We’re Looking For
We are seeking a results-oriented Policy Manager to defend & grow our business, with an expected focus on select states predominantly in the Midwest and Mountain West. The role will include working with key stakeholders to shape energy policy, engaging in energy regulatory proceedings to shape the narrative around our business, and helping the company identify and leverage opportunities through legislation and regulatory proceedings. We are industry leaders in community solar, and are increasingly focused on building out the data and analytics to power the energy sector more broadly. This role will work to guide market rules and operations to help us bring access to clean energy for more customers. The Policy Manager will enjoy both getting deep in the weeds (e.g. reading utility commission dockets) and thinking at the 10,000-foot level (e.g. developing messages that will drive policy change).
The ideal candidate is a “policy entrepreneur” — a self-starter always thinking creatively about how to create benefits for our customers and drive value for our business. Candidates must be interested in the challenge of decarbonizing the energy industry. This individual will be able to use multiple strategies and tactics to influence policy and work with stakeholders — including legislators, regulators, utility executives, and allies — to advance key conversations about the future of the energy sector. Arcadia is a mission-driven business, so if you’re committed to expediting the clean energy transition, we encourage you to apply.
This role will report to the Director of Policy. The Policy Manager will also work closely with individuals across the company, including within the policy and legal teams as well as with business development, product, operations, and marketing, to build and grow the business in key markets.
Arcadia is open to fully remote candidates and employees have access to co-working spaces.
What You'll Do

The exact compensation at which this job is filled will be determined by the skills, experience, and location of the qualified candidate.
