Research Assistant, ITIF Center for Clean Energy Innovation

The Information Technology and Innovation Foundation (ITIF)—a leading science and technology policy think tank—seeks a research assistant (RA) to work on clean energy innovation policy. The successful candidate will support a team that analyzes policies with the potential to influence the national and global transition to a low-carbon energy system, including research and development funding, taxation, and regulation. The RA’s duties may include quantitative and qualitative data collection, database maintenance, tracking activities of government agencies and international organizations, and coordination of working groups. The RA will report to the director of ITIF’s Center for Clean Energy Innovation and work closely with all members of the ITIF energy team. 

 

The RA must be detail-oriented, able to work collaboratively, and have strong research and communication skills. Knowledge of energy and climate policy and a background in policy analysis are preferred.
