Influences the shaping of future products by contributing to the framework (architecture) used across multiple products or systems.

What your background should look like:

Technical Duties and Responsibilities:

1. Develop Solar PV design/construction packages including solar array layouts, electrical SLD, DC collection systems, collection system studies (Cable Ampacity, Power Losses), and equipment installation details for Utility Scale Solar PV systems (5-500MW+).
2. Perform analysis and evaluations to determine the most cost-effective DC Collection System designs for Utility Scale Solar PV Systems (5-500MW+).
3. Support development of early-stage projects with conceptual designs and material take-offs (pre-LNTP).
4. Manage external subcontractors for other adjacent services.
5. Interact directly with clients for successful project execution.
6. Use Excel spreadsheets, commercial and proprietary engineering software to design Solar PV systems.
7. Potential site visits to gather notes and take pictures of existing conditions to aid in design and identify critical flaws.
8. Contribute to continual development of internal solar engineering standards, toolsets, and work processes.
9. Translate initial system conceptual ideas into fully developed optimized EPC designs.

Other Key Responsibilities:

• Experience with estimating or designing electrical systems is mandatory.
• Ability to read, comprehend, and apply electrical codes and/or standards (NEC 690-691, NEC 310, IEC 62548, IEC 62738).
