Work with us.
Change the grid.
We are a global team of over 100 passionate, visionary industry-leading experts across four continents, working every day to transform grids worldwide.
Headquartered in North Carolina. Working everywhere.
Based in the Research Triangle, we are a global team of passionate and visionary industry-leading experts across four continents — working every day to transform how the world manages transmission capacity.
Together, we are reimagining the grid. Not for a distant future, but for the utilities and operators who need more from their existing infrastructure right now.
We help utilities get more from the grid they already own
We help electric utilities solve critical grid constraints — creating a more flexible, reliable, and affordable transmission system that enables a faster, more cost-efficient path to meet growing electricity demand.
In collaboration with our customers and partners, we have delivered over 5 GW of capacity across 40+ transmission circuits on four continents, supporting faster integration of new demand and delivering cost savings to consumers.
Four values that guide everything we do
We are passionate about creating a culture that empowers our team to create positive change for everyone and achieve their full potential.
We are passionate and ambitious about a better future for everyone. Laser-focused on creating a meaningful, positive impact with real change for our customers, our industry, electricity consumers, and the planet.
We collaborate with each other and our stakeholders because we know even better outcomes come from great teamwork. We have the humility to listen, learn, and improve, and we value diverse perspectives.
We take responsibility for our actions and the outcomes we deliver. Acting with integrity and authenticity, maintaining clear open communication — ensuring we always improve and deliver safe, high-quality solutions. We do what we say we will do.
We are clear on our path. We have always pioneered new ideas that challenge the status quo. We have tenacity, grit, and determination. We push the boundaries of what is thought possible so we can leave the world better than we found it.
We support the whole person
Smart Wires values its employees and their wellbeing. We aim to create a supportive atmosphere where our team can thrive — with comprehensive coverage, flexible working, and a culture that encourages balance.
Comprehensive coverage for you and your family
We offer comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage designed to fit your family's needs. Coverage includes at least 85% of medical premiums for employees and dependents, and 100% of dental and vision. HSA and multiple FSA options are also available.
401(k) with immediate vesting and life insurance
Smart Wires offers a 401(k) retirement plan with a dollar-for-dollar match up to 5% that vests immediately. We also offer fully paid life insurance and the option to add supplemental coverage for yourself and eligible dependents.
Unlimited PTO, flexible work, and 18 weeks parental leave
We believe taking time off to recharge is essential. That is why we offer unlimited paid time off to all full-time employees, flexible work environments, and 18 weeks of fully paid parental leave for all new parents.
Committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion
Smart Wires is committed to building an equitable and inclusive environment for people of all backgrounds and experiences.
