The Field Service Site Supervisor / Manager is responsible for all on-site operations, maintenance, safety, reporting, and customer interface at the Beeville/Mineral, TX utility-scale solar facility.

You’ll guide the site team through commissioning, startup, operations, and ongoing maintenance — and you’ll be the on‑site owner of execution quality, safety culture, schedule, and communication.

• Own site safety performance, including Lockout/Tagout (LOTO), near‑miss reporting, incident documentation, PPE enforcement, and daily safety briefs.
• Lead and document daily safety / tailboard meetings.
• Review Job Hazard Analyses (JHAs) with the crew and proactively identify/mitigate risk.
• Ensure all required safety and LOTO documents are completed accurately, stored correctly, and available for audit.

• Ensure the crew reports on time, understands the Plan of the Day (POD), and is properly set up to execute work safely and efficiently.
• Assign work to technicians and confirm coverage for critical tasks (inverters, balance‑of‑plant, substation inspections, vegetation/roads, etc.).
• Run or participate in required site calls/meetings:
• Daily customer touchpoint / status review
• Internal coordination with site lead tech / resource & fleet manager for priorities, punch list items, and escalations.
• Maintain a visible leadership presence in the field and set expectations for accountability, housekeeping, and professionalism.

• Oversee testing, troubleshooting, maintenance, and performance/availability work in line with contractual requirements.
• Support planning and scheduling of preventive and corrective maintenance on:
• Trackers / DC field equipment (per OEM checklist)
• Weather/meteorological stations (bi‑weekly inspection)
• Roads and vegetation (monthly inspection)
• Substation walkdowns and required inspections
• Vehicle inspections (monthly)
• Annual tasks such as transformer oil testing (DGA sampling) and IV curve tracing on a sample of strings.
• Make sure technicians are closing service tickets / work orders promptly (same day or next day) and that maintenance / inspection reports are completed and sent to leadership.

• Manage the administrative side of the contract: daily/weekly reporting, work completion logs, site activity summaries, tracking of punch list items, and status of any open issues.
• Ensure required documentation (LOTO logs, maintenance records, inspection reports, outage reports, etc.) is accurate and submitted to leadership.
• Support invoicing/receivables, change order and claim discussions, and resolution of commercial/technical issues.
• Communicate project and site status…
