Senior Project Engineer – Solar & BESS

We are solving the challenge of our generation. Climate change is an existential threat, and we need as many of the world’s motivated minds as possible to help. There is no greater challenge or opportunity than fighting climate change.

We are a world-class team. We are engineers, scientists, and concerned humans from a variety of backgrounds and experiences who are pooling our knowledge and skills to collectively build a more equitable, prosperous future for all.

We remain united, resilient, and optimistic. We recognize the magnitude of the challenge ahead of us, yet believe that we can contribute to mitigating the worst effects of climate change. It won’t be easy, but we won’t quit.

Build the solar and storage backbone of a first-of-its-kind clean power plant. Energy Park P1 pairs a 1.1 GWh battery and on-site solar with zero-emission, clean energy to power a hyperscale data center, with no grid connection. You'll own the Solar + BESS package end to end, from picking suppliers to energizing the system, on a small team where your calls shape the project and the template for the projects after it. The challenge: a fast schedule, a behind-the-meter microgrid with multiple sources, and suppliers who need to be held to performance.
