AI Solutions Engineer

About us:

Pacifico Group is a global investment manager focused on essential infrastructure and real assets, with flagship platforms in energy, aerospace, and real estate. Born out of utility-scale power development across Asia, we now apply private-equity discipline to originate, finance, and operate high-value projects worldwide. Our philanthropic arm, the 661 Foundation, reinvests a portion of profits into community facilities and youth programs in every region where we operate. (https://www.pacificoenergy.com/)

Entrepreneurship sits at the center of everything we do. When we spot a market gap, we spin up a new venture—whether that is fast, behind-the-meter power for AI data centers or upgraded fast-jet fleets for defense customers. If you see opportunity and can build the tech to capture it, you will have the capital, autonomy, and executive access to move fast.

What you will get to do:

Example Projects You Might Lead — by Business Area

Cross-Company (applies across Pacifico businesses)

• Operational Efficiency Copilots — Build RAG-based copilots that surface financial, legal, engineering, and ops insights from our document stack in seconds.

• Deal Origination & Diligence AI — Fine-tune LLMs to screen thousands of energy/infra/aviation assets, flagging those that hit IRR, ESG, and risk thresholds.

• Community Impact Automation — Automate grant-application workflows for the 661 Foundation so funds reach local projects faster.

Aerospace

• Predictive Maintenance Intelligence — AI maintenance database learning from fix logs, upgrades, inspections, and telemetry; recommend proactive interventions, reduce AOG, extend airframe/engine life. Package as SaaS for Global Hawk and fast-jet operators; establish the data backbone for life-extension programs (downtime ↓, MTBF ↑, overhaul costs ↓).

Data Center Energy (AI power + reliability)

• Autonomous BESS Optimizer — RL controller co-optimizing charge/discharge for price signals, PUE targets, and SLA risk; integrates with CAISO/ERCOT/PJM/KPX where applicable.

• Grid-Aware Dispatch Copilot — Forecast load, renewable output, and prices; recommend dispatch for gensets and batteries to cut curtailment and demand charges.

• Interconnection Fast-Track Assistant — LLM agent ingesting utility handbooks, queue data, and site constraints to output siting options, lead times, and risk flags.

Pacifico Energy — United States (solar, storage, microgrids, thermal)

• SCADA → Anomaly Radar (Non-wind) — Real-time ingestion from PV, storage, and thermal assets; detect inverter faults, soiling, DC/AC clipping, state-of-charge drift, and heat-rate issues.

• BESS Health & Degradation Tracker — Cell/string-level degradation modeling; dispatch recommendations to extend life and reduce warranty events.

• Hybrid Plant Forecaster (PV + Storage) — Probabilistic generation + storage forecasts; bidding strategies and curtailment minimization (e.g., CAISO/ERCOT/PJM).

• PPA & Permit Copilot (US) — Draft/mark-up PPAs, interconnection apps, and EPC addenda; clause-level risk scoring and fallback language aligned to US regs and ISO tariffs.

Pacifico Energy — Vietnam & Korea (onshore/offshore wind)

• Wind SCADA Anomaly Radar — Detect yaw misalignment, pitch system faults, blade soiling/icing, gearbox/bearing early-warning; push work orders with predicted availability impact.

• Offshore O&M & Weather-Window Planner — Combine metocean forecasts, crew/asset schedules, and access limits to optimize turbine service windows and vessel dispatch.

• Wake & Layout Optimizer — Integrate LiDAR/SODAR and CFD/wake models to recommend curtailment schemes and dynamic yaw for array-level yield uplift.

• PPA & Permit Copilot (VN/KR) — Draft/redline filings and contracts for EVN/NLDC and KPX/KEPCO; surface risk clauses, timelines, and compliance gaps; suggest fallback language.

Pacifico Investments

• Infra Deal Screener — Ingest decks/memos; extract IRR, leverage, tenor, covenants, sponsor track record; rank opportunities by risk-adjusted return and mandate fit.

• PortCo KPI Generator — Recommend KPIs and reporting cadences by asset type/region; auto-build exec dashboards and data pipelines.

• Fund Ops Copilot — Draft LP updates, standardize quarterly letters, and reconcile data across administrators, custodians, and portfolio telemetry.

Venture Path: When an internal tool shows external demand, run paid pilots and prepare a spin-out; engineers potential share in equity upside.
