The Project Development Engineering team partners directly with Business Development to support project wins and drive growth. The team is expanding to support increasing renewable energy opportunities, including solar (PV), battery energy storage (BESS), and repowering solutions.

You will join a team that includes both experienced engineers and newly onboarded talent, creating an environment focused on collaboration, knowledge-sharing, and development. This role will play a key part in supporting team capacity as demand continues to grow.

• Identify and communicate technical risks and opportunities during early project development phases
• Learn and apply industry tools such as PVSyst, AutoCAD, PVFARM, ArcGIS, and related modeling software
• Travel up to approximately 25% for site visits, client meetings, or team coordination as needed

• Experience or education in Electrical, Mechanical, Civil Engineering, or a related STEM discipline
• Experience working in cross-functional or collaborative team environments
• Legal authorization to work in the United States without visa sponsorship or transfer

• Exposure to renewable energy, power systems, or utility-scale projects through coursework, internships, or professional experience
• Experience or familiarity with solar PV, battery energy storage systems (BESS), energy modeling or design tools (e.g., PVSyst, AutoCAD, Excel-based modeling) and programming or data analysis tools (like Excel (including macros) or Python).
• Experience with interpreting technical drawings such as site layouts, equipment schematics, one-line diagrams, or contract documentation through coursework, internships, or project work.
• Engineering certifications, such as Engineer-in-Training (EIT)/Fundamentals of Engineering or Professional Engineering certification
• Prior experience supporting proposals, RFIs, RFPs, or early-stage engineering work
