📋 Description

• Review active development projects across all US markets, proactively surfacing technical risks, feasibility gaps, and issues that may have been missed. • Serve as the senior technical escalation point for the development team — diagnosing problems and working collaboratively to solve them. • Manage projects assigned to you with diligence, ensuring that development proceeds on-schedule and on-budget. • Oversee and contribute to feasibility analysis, including site assessments, interconnection strategy, permitting pathways, and preliminary engineering. • Manage and coordinate external vendors, engineering consultants, and permitting specialists to deliver quality outcomes on schedule, while ensuring that we are managing costs by completing as much work in-house as possible. • Act as a mentor and technical resource for developers — reviewing their work, filling knowledge gaps, and accelerating their professional growth. • Work closely with pre-construction, engineering, finance, and origination teams to ensure smooth project handoffs and alignment on technical and commercial requirements.

🎯 Requirements

• 5+ years of experience in renewable energy development, with direct experience managing solar PV and/or BESS projects from origination through development complete. • Demonstrated ability to identify and resolve technical and process challenges across a portfolio of projects simultaneously. • Strong command of development fundamentals: site feasibility, interconnection, permitting, site control, title, engineering, project scheduling, and budget management. • Experience working with and managing external engineering consultants, vendors, and permitting professionals. • Advanced proficiency in critical path scheduling and project costing/budgeting. • Working knowledge of solar PV and BESS system design principles for projects up to 20MW+ AC. • Intermediate proficiency with industry tools such as Helioscope, Smartsheet, and MS Office Suite (or equivalent). • Excellent written and verbal communication skills; comfortable presenting to both technical and non-technical audiences. • A mentorship orientation - genuine interest in developing less experienced teammates.

🏖️ Benefits

• Fully paid Medical, Dental, and Vision coverage, your health and peace of mind come first. • 401(k) with employer match, helping you grow your financial future. • Generous PTO including 19 days of Vacation/Sick time so you can unplug, recharge, and take care of what matters most.
