  • Passion for renewable energy development and environmental stewardship.
  • Creative problem-solving skills and a solutions-oriented approach.
  • Self-motivated with a focus on success and value creation.
  • Able to build rapport with all levels of management and staff.

  • Team-oriented with a proactive mindset.
  • Detail-oriented and organized.
  • Comfortable in a fast-paced, dynamic environment.
  • Ability to make informed decisions swiftly with a bias for action.
  • Demonstrates integrity and accountability.

Education & Experience:

  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering (Electrical, Systems, Controls preferred).
  • Minimum of 2 years of industry experience in construction or engineering (renewables preferred).

  • Approximately 30% of time will involve travel; this will vary based on project status.
  • Travel includes solo site visits.
  • Limited travel for industry conferences and company events is expected.
  • This is a full-time, exempt salaried position with standard office hours from 8:30 AM – 5:30 PM EST. Project demands may require work outside of these hours.

Benefits:
