Description

  • Lead utility and interconnection strategy for complex customer opportunities, including large-load, utility-scale, and enterprise projects.
  • Evaluate site-specific interconnection pathways, utility requirements, and market participation implications.
  • Identify early cost, schedule, and technical risks, including study triggers, protection requirements, relay requirements, and other constraints.
  • Develop or coordinate alternative operating, engineering, and interconnection approaches when standard requirements create unacceptable delay or cost exposure.
  • Support the company’s transition to larger 10 MW-plus opportunities and projects that cross ISO, transmission, or additional utility thresholds.
  • Define the technical and process capabilities needed for larger projects, including OEM model availability and transmission-grid interaction readiness.
  • Coordinate with internal and external technical stakeholders on power systems behavior, controls, grid interaction, and compliance expectations.
  • Support readiness planning for markets and customers that require stronger utility-strategy sophistication.
  • Build internal understanding of utility, transmission, and relevant NERC considerations affecting large-scale projects.
  • Design and improve repeatable interconnection workflows in Jira, including templates, fields, statuses, milestones, and handoffs.
  • Replace manual and spreadsheet-based tracking with clearer, auditable workflow structures.
  • Create reusable guidance, templates, and internal reference material for recurring interconnection and utility questions.
  • Maintain a structured repository for utility documents, web links, meeting notes, and requirements records.
  • Partner cross-functionally with Sales, Interconnection, PM, PE, Controls, and other teams on opportunity evaluation and project execution.
  • Translate technical and regulatory issues into decision-support language for commercial, delivery, and leadership stakeholders.

Requirements

  • Minimum of 10 years of electric interconnection experience, with gas interconnection as a plus.
  • Experience with distributed generation, utility interconnection, and project development across utility-facing energy projects.
  • Demonstrated ability to support complex interconnection pathways involving market participation, utility studies, protection requirements, or transmission-scale considerations.
  • Familiarity with larger-site or utility-scale project dynamics, including issues at higher megawatt thresholds.
  • Working knowledge of how utility, compliance, controls, and customer requirements intersect on larger projects.
  • Experience designing or improving workflows, operating processes, templates, or systems that enable scale across teams.
  • Strong written communication skills for customer-ready guidance, internal frameworks, and structured documentation.
  • Ability to work cross-functionally and influence without relying solely on formal authority.
  • Comfort using workflow systems, structured knowledge repositories, and AI-assisted drafting tools within company policy boundaries.
  • Bachelor’s degree preferred.
