📋 Description

• Act as terralayr’s main technical counterpart to DSOs/TSOs and lead ongoing discussions around connection feasibility, constraints, FCA topics, timelines, and practical solutions. • Identify and prioritize the most attractive connection opportunities across DSOs/TSOs and support strategic project / DSO selection based on technical bottlenecks, conversion likelihood, and commercial attractiveness. • Serve as terralayr’s internal grid expert by assessing grid capacity, connection constraints, technical bottlenecks, and likely DSO/TSO behavior. • Provide actionable grid insight to support project selection, FCA assessment, negotiations, prioritization, and broader strategic / regulatory decisions. • Support the conversion of grid opportunities into secured capacity through structured follow-ups, technical challenge, and fact-based negotiations. • Support terralayr’s regulatory assessments and external positioning by bringing a strong technical view on grid bottlenecks, DSO/TSO processes, and potential improvement levers. • Translate technical grid constraints into project, timeline, and revenue implications, enabling better development and investment decisions. • Work closely with Development, Finance, Delivery, Commercial, and leadership to ensure grid strategy directly improves pipeline quality, conversion, and execution.

🎯 Requirements

• 5-10 years of relevant experience within a utility, TSO/DSO, grid consultancy, or leading renewable energy developer. • Strong experience in grid connection, grid constraints, and power systems, ideally with relevance for BESS / flexibility projects. • Degree in Electrical Engineering, Power Systems, or similar. • Strong technical / electrical engineering depth is essential. • Grid modelling / simulation capabilities are welcome, but strong practical understanding of grid access, connection processes, and technical bottlenecks is more important. • You can use technical insight to influence outcomes, challenge assumptions, and move projects forward. • Able to speak both the technical language of DSOs/TSOs and the commercial / strategic language of project developers, leadership, and investors. • Professional fluency in German is essential.
