Your day at a glance

Based in the Fort Collins area, CO, you’ll start your morning aligning pre-construction plans with Engineering, Environmental, Legal, Development, and Land teams. Midday might find you in the field validating gen-tie routing assumptions, weighing engineering constraints against environmental sensitivities, and applying value engineering to refine the route. By afternoon, you’ll be on-site overseeing mechanical and electrical installation for a utility-scale Battery Energy Storage System (BESS), coordinating EPC contractors, inspectors, and vendors, and confirming that work meets drawings, specifications, safety protocols, and QA/QC standards. You’ll wrap with a clear brief to leadership on risks, constraints, and mitigation strategies—and line up the next day’s priorities.

What you’ll deliver

  • Technical and financial project support, including reviews of contract documents, plant design criteria, drawings, and specifications.
  • Pre-construction planning that aligns engineering, environmental, and permitting requirements.
  • Budget and schedule insight—identifying cost drivers and potential impacts.
  • End-to-end gen-tie and associated infrastructure route development, including field validation and trade-off analyses under uncertainty.
  • Value-engineered routing that balances cost, constructability, and environmental considerations.
  • Collaborative permitting compliance with cross-functional stakeholders.
  • Field leadership for BESS construction, covering mechanical and electrical installation.
  • Direct oversight of EPCs and subcontractors for conformance to specs, drawings, safety, and QA/QC.
  • Daily coordination across contractors, inspectors, vendors, and partners to keep work moving safely and efficiently.

What you bring

  • 6–10 years supporting technical and/or financial aspects of construction projects.
  • 3+ years leading contractor oversight and field construction activities.
  • Experience in energy, utilities, infrastructure, or power generation.
  • Fluency with routing criteria (cost, engineering limits, environmental constraints) and route optimization/value engineering concepts.
