DSD's Senior Project Engineers are critical to the successful energization of our most complicated rooftop, canopy and ground mount PV, ESS and EVCI projects. Senior engineers own and manage the technical aspects of projects from development through asset operation, lead continuous improvement efforts of core engineering topics and provide mentorship to up-and-coming junior project engineers. They are core to the continued growth, development and success of DSD's Engineering Department.

Perform on-site inspections as needed to aid in resolution of issues and quality of the final product.
