Our Values

Six core values guide how we work: commitments we make to each other. Our pace is set by a simple conviction: imperfect action beats perfect inaction, so we move with purpose, adapt without ego, and measure ourselves by progress rather than activity. Ownership travels with autonomy. Your name is on the work, and the best answer wins the conversation, wherever it lives. That candor works because of what surrounds it: people who show up with intention and have each other's back, tough on ideas and generous with people. Our customers feel this as reliability earned daily, every interaction treated as a chance to build something lasting. And underneath it all is why the work matters. The climate doesn't wait, and the stakes are also human: behind every checklist and every inspection is a person going home safely. We call it "This work has a heartbeat” — it’s what the other five rest on.

Role Description

Terawatt's headquarters is located in San Francisco, CA; this is a hybrid role where candidates must live in the SF Bay area.

The Utility Coordinator is responsible for the administrative and procedural execution of utility projects from initial due diligence through final energization. This role serves as the central hub for the front-end utility funnel, ensuring that high-volume applications move through the pipeline efficiently and that all project data remains accurate across internal platforms.

As a junior-level role, the Utility Coordinator manages repeatable tasks and adheres to strict project timelines, providing critical organizational support to the Energy & Utility team. This position is accountable for key project phases within the RACI matrix, bridging acquisition, development, construction, and utility coordination through hands-on coordination and process discipline.

Reporting directly to the VP, Energy & Policy, the Energy Coordinator will work closely with the Energy & Utilities Manager and collaborate with the acquisition, development and construction teams.

Core Responsibilities

• Utility Pipeline Coordination: Manage the submission and tracking of load study applications, maintaining real-time accuracy and coordinating results to help prevent project delays.
• Project Tracking: Maintain accountability for project milestones within the utility pipeline; proactively identify risks and blockers, and support tasks and project completion. Ensures all utility documentation is submitted by project deadlines.
• System Data Integrity: Maintain accurate project records in Smartsheet, Procore, and other systems, ensuring all stakeholders have a single source of truth for utility status.
• E&U Data Support: Gather and organize technical equipment data and cost benchmarks to assist Energy & Utility (E&U) Managers in preparing energization estimates.
• Utility Standards: Support maintaining utility standards documentation, ensuring technical documents and site requirements are organized and accessible to engineering teams.
• Design Review Support: Facilitate the technical redline process by coordinating feedback between internal stakeholders and third-party engineers; ensure all redlines are accurately captured and filed.
• Design Review Development: For candidates with design experience or Engineer in Training (EIT) status, participate in the review of site electrical designs and civil layouts during project development. Help prepare review comments that confirm the dry utility space is correctly laid out so the utility approves the layout. Work is performed under the direction of E&U Managers and third-party engineers of record, and provides hands-on design experience.
• Energy-Rate Analysis Assistance: Assist in collecting and analyzing utility tariff data and energy usage information to support operational cost evaluations.
• Field & Crew Scheduling: Coordinate pre-construction site walks and inspections; act as a primary point of contact for scheduling final energization with utility crews and field technicians.
• Account Transition: Manage the setup of new utility accounts and facilitate the transition of billing information to the operations team to support a seamless handoff.

Minimum Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Business Administration, Construction Management, or a related field/experience.
• 3–5 years of experience in project coordination, utility administration, or construction management.
• Proven Project Management Skills: Demonstrated ability to manage high-volume, repeatable tasks and maintain complex project timelines with high attention to detail.
• Advanced Proficiency in project management tools: Experience using project management tools to track project health and maintain data integrity is highly preferred. Ideally, experience with Procore and Smartsheets.
• Communication: Strong organizational and communication skills, with the ability to hold external utility partners accountable to project schedules.

Preferred Qualifications

• Domain Expertise: Experience or strong working knowledge of the power and energy sectors, including electrical utilities, grid infrastructure, and energy project lifecycles.
• Engineer in Training (EIT): Candidates who have passed the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) exam or hold EIT certification are encouraged to apply, particularly those with electrical or civil design experience.
• Drafting & Design Knowledge: Experience with drafting software (e.g., Bluebeam) is a significant plus, specifically for interpreting site layouts and utility schematics. Design experience, such as reviewing electrical one-line diagrams, site plans, or civil layouts, is also valued.
