A leading independent renewable energy developer and owner/operator of utility-scale battery energy storage projects is seeking a Manager, Interconnection Execution Engineering to join its growing Project Development team.
This is an opportunity to play a critical role in delivering grid-scale energy storage projects from executed Interconnection Agreement (IA) through engineering, construction, commissioning, and commercial operation. The company has a strong development pipeline across multiple U.S. markets and offers a collaborative, fast-paced environment with significant growth opportunities.
This role serves as the technical lead for transmission and interconnection execution throughout the project lifecycle. The successful candidate will work closely with utilities, ISOs/RTOs, EPC contractors, engineering teams, and internal stakeholders to ensure all interconnection obligations are successfully executed after the Interconnection Agreement has been secured.
