UX/UI Designer - Energy Management Platform

UX/UI Designer for Energy Management Platform

About Myers Energy Systems – ENERIQ

Myers Emergency Power Systems (Myers EPS) is expanding its energy software portfolio with ENERIQ, a cloud-based platform enabling Energy Management (EMS), Distributed Energy Resource Management (DERMS), Virtual Power Plant (VPP) participation, and EV charging coordination for commercial and industrial (C&I) customers. ENERIQ is designed to unify complex energy capabilities into a coherent, operable platform that supports site operators, asset owners, and aggregators through clear workflows, predictable behavior, and structured control interfaces.

Role Summary

The Platform Product Intern – ENERIQ is a product design and platform flow role focused on defining how users interact with the ENERIQ platform and how those interactions are translated into technically implementable system behavior. This role is responsible for designing and documenting user flows, platform states, and interaction models for complex features such as EMS configuration, VPP participation, DER coordination, and EV charger management, so that engineering teams can implement them with minimal ambiguity.

Platform Flow & Interaction Design

Primary project activities:

• Define user types for the EnerIQ energy management system
• Design end-to-end user flows for ENERIQ features including EMS monitoring and configuration, DER and asset onboarding, VPP enrollment and dispatch visibility, and EV charger control interfaces. 
• Define platform states, transitions, and modes from a user-experience perspective.
• Specify how users enable, configure, and operate platform capabilities.

Technical Specification of UX Behavior

Translate user flows into clear, developer-consumable specifications including expected behavior per interaction, edge cases, error states, and acceptance criteria. Create flow diagrams, state diagrams, and interaction specifications that clearly map user actions to system responses.

VPP, DERMS & EV Platform Experience

Define how ENERIQ presents and manages VPP participation, DER grouping and constraints, and EV charger scheduling and coordination. Ensure platform flows clearly distinguish configuration versus operation, automated versus manual control, and local versus external authority.

Collaboration With Engineering & Product Leads

Collaborate closely with engineering and product leadership to validate designs against technical constraints and real operational scenarios. Review implemented features to ensure alignment with defined flows and documentation.

Deliverables

User journey maps, platform flow and state diagrams, wireframes, UX behavior specifications, and acceptance criteria.

Qualifications

Currently pursuing or recently completed a degree in Product Design, UX/HCI, Systems Engineering, Computer Science, Graphic Design, Management Information Systems or a related field. Strong systems thinking, clear documentation skills, and comfort working with technical teams.

Skills

• Audit & Evaluation: Ability to conduct usability reviews and identify friction points in existing digital products.
• Design Tools: Familiarity with Figma, Adobe XD, Sketch or similar tools to document findings or suggest layout improvements.
• Documentation: Able to create clear user flow diagrams and document existing screen flows to identify "leaks" in the user journey.
• UX Principles: Solid understanding of core usability principles and user-centered design best practices.
• Wireframing (Nice to have): Experience creating static wireframes to demonstrate proposed improvements.

Portfolio 

• Must submit a portfolio with at least one UX Case Study showing your design process. We are specifically looking for your ability to identify a problem and propose a logic-based solution, not just final "pretty" screens.

Role Clarifier

This role focuses on platform flow and interaction design, not power control implementation. Success is measured by how clearly engineers can implement platform behavior from the provided designs and documentation.
