This position provides the opportunity to engage with our clients, evaluate their energy needs, develop concept-level plans and solutions, and then take these through detailed design to provide for full execution of the solution. We offer and deliver a true "end to end" life-cycle service from exploration, development, operation, and repowering/retirement. Demonstrated abilities include a broad understanding of power systems and electrical engineering sciences. Experience in consulting, design, design management and project management will be highly regarded, as will experience in Owner's Engineer roles or contract management, and advisory (technical advisor/due diligence) roles as well as strategic project development experience.

You will collaborate with our Client Account Managers and sales professionals on pursuits of strategic importance to the firm. You'll be expected to possess highly collaborative and sophisticated communication and problem-solving skills. Successful candidates will have a demonstrated ability to anticipate challenges and manage "up and out" while supporting large teams responsible for the daily details of project delivery.
