Electric Engineer

Type: Full-time

Design, Develop, and optimize solar photovoltaic (PV) systems and related renewable-energy projects from concept through construction and commissioning. Ensure technical compliance, maximize system performance and ROI, support permitting and interconnection, and collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver safe, cost-effective projects.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead PV system design: site assessment, shading analysis, layout, stringing, and single-line diagrams.
• Perform electrical and structural calculations, energy yield modeling, and loss analysis using tools like PVsyst, Helioscope, SAM, or similar.
• Develop BOMs, cost estimates, and technical specifications for inverters, modules, racking, trackers, combiner boxes, and balance-of-system components.
• Prepare and review construction drawings, permit submittals, interconnection applications, and utility studies.
• Support procurement and vendor evaluation; review product datasheets and ensure component compatibility.
• Provide technical oversight during construction, commissioning, and performance testing; troubleshoot and resolve field issues.
• Monitor and analyze system performance (SCADA, performance ratio, O&M data) and recommend improvements or remedial actions.
• Ensure designs meet electrical codes (PEC), local building codes, safety standards, and utility requirements.
• Coordinate with civil, structural, environmental, and permitting teams; liaise with utilities, EPCs, and stakeholders.
• Maintain project documentation, design records, and as-built drawings; support warranty claims and lifecycle maintenance planning.
• Stay current on PV technology, industry standards, and incentives; contribute to R&D, pilot projects, and continuous improvement.

Required Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical, Renewable Energy, or related engineering discipline.
• 5+ years' experience in solar PV system design, engineering, or EPC execution.
• Proficiency with PV design and modeling tools (e.g., PVsyst, Helioscope, SAM), CAD (AutoCAD, Civil3D), and electrical analysis software.
• Strong understanding of PV electrical systems, inverters, protections, grounding, and NEC requirements.
• Experience with utility interconnection processes and permitting.
• Solid analytical skills, attention to detail, and problem-solving aptitude.
• Effective written and verbal communication; able to coordinate with multidisciplinary teams.
• Valid driver's license; willingness to travel to project sites.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Professional Engineer (PEE) license or REE
• Experience with modules, single and three phase, energy storage integration (BESS), or hybrid systems.
• Familiarity with SCADA systems, O&M practices, and performance monitoring tools.
• Experience with racking and foundation engineering for rooftop and ground-mount systems.
• Knowledge of incentive programs (ITC, state/local incentives) and finance models for project evaluation.

Skills & Competencies:

• Project management and time management.
• Risk assessment and mitigation.
• Cost estimating and value engineering.
• Safety-focused mindset and compliance orientation.
• Collaborative team player with leadership potential.
