BESS Design & Integration Engineer

Ready to Lead Battery Augmentation at Grid Scale?

Location: Juno Beach, FL | Contract: 11 months, W-2

What if this were your next challenge?

Imagine shaping the next wave of renewable energy storage upgrades—scoping, designing, and implementing augmentation strategies that lift performance and reliability across a fleet of utility-scale assets. You’ll gather insights from internal engineering datasets and external vendors, turn them into actionable due diligence, and recommend storage or hybrid configurations that meet customer demands today and anticipate tomorrow’s needs.

Your Impact

• Own multi-discipline design (electrical, structural, civil) for augmentation projects.
• Run multiple high-volume projects end to end—aligning EORs, project managers, and permitting, procurement, interconnection, and construction stakeholders.
• Set the technical approach for project teams, track progress, resolve issues, and maintain engineering oversight.
• Advance process enhancements, system integration, and controls strategies.
• Use market and technical analysis to support energy storage strategies and inform investment decisions.
• Spot value-engineering options and assess promising technologies for deployment.

What You Bring

• Subject matter expertise in substation or utility-scale energy storage design and project management, including:
  • Power electronics
  • Battery storage system design
  • Substation design
  • Generation tie design
• Experience designing/operating large power generation or processing facilities under regulatory requirements with a focus on performance and reliability.
• Practical construction know-how: foundations, trenching, terminations, testing, and safety best practices.
• Deep familiarity with battery chemistries, power conversion units, and DC-DC converters.
• Standards and codes for lithium-ion safety: UL1973, UL9540, UL9540A, NFPA 855, NFPA 70E, NEC, and applicable IFC/IBC sections.
• Grid integration experience: interconnection studies and GIA material modification adjustment (MMA) processes in WECC and CAISO.
• Construction permitting and contracting experience.

Qualifications

• Bachelor of Science in Electrical or Mechanical Engineering (ABET-accredited) or related discipline.
• 11+ years of demonstrated engineering experience.
