Job description

Location: Austin, TX (hybrid)

Salary: $80,000 - $120,000, depending on experience

Type: Full-time | Two-year rotational program

About us

We develop, build, own and operate renewable energy projects across the United States, with a portfolio covering utility-scale solar, wind and battery energy storage (BESS). Texas is the fastest-growing clean energy market in the country, and our Austin office sits at the center of it. This program exists to develop the people who will help lead that growth.

The program

This is a two-year, full-time rotational position for early-career professionals who want to learn the whole clean energy business before picking a lane. You will complete three eight-month rotations across our core functions, matched to your interests and strengths:

• Development: siting, permitting, interconnection and the commercial groundwork that takes a project from map to shovel-ready
• Engineering & Construction: technical design, contractor coordination and delivering projects in the field
• Finance & Asset Management: investment analysis, project finance and the commercial performance of our operating fleet
• You will complete the program with a permanent placement on the team where you have found the strongest fit, along with a network and an understanding of the full business that would otherwise take years to build.

What you will do

• Join each team as a full contributor, with real deliverables and ownership from day one
• Support live projects through analysis, modeling, applications, technical reviews and site visits across Texas and beyond
• Present your work to senior leadership at the end of every rotation
• Learn directly from experienced developers, engineers and financiers, with a dedicated mentor throughout the program
• Build the cross-functional fluency that moves careers forward fast in this industry

What we are looking for

• A bachelor's degree in engineering, environmental science, economics, finance, business or a related field
• A demonstrated interest in clean energy and the transition to a decarbonized grid
• Strong analytical skills and comfort with data, spreadsheets and picking up new tools
• Clear communication and the confidence to work across every part of a business
• Adaptability: three rotations mean three new teams, new problems and steep learning curves
• Authorization to work in the United States
• No prior energy experience is required. Internships, research or campus involvement that show initiative are a plus. We hire for aptitude and attitude.

What we offer

• $80,000 - $120,000 base salary, depending on experience
• Hybrid working from our Austin office
• A structured two-year program with a dedicated mentor and executive visibility
• Guaranteed permanent placement on successful completion
• Health, dental and vision coverage, 401(k) with company match, and generous PTO
• Relocation support for candidates moving to Austin
• A front-row seat to the biggest clean energy build-out in America
