At Peregrine Energy, the Senior Developer will lead the origination, advancement, and execution of utility-scale battery energy storage system (BESS) and grid-critical energy projects from early-stage development through commercial operation. This role is designed for a high-capacity professional who can operate effectively in a fast-paced, demanding, and highly competitive development environment.

The Senior Developer will lead work across the full project lifecycle, including site control, interconnection, permitting, commercial integration, preliminary engineering coordination, cross-functional diligence, and milestone execution. Projects are expected to span multiple U.S. power markets and jurisdictions, requiring strong project management discipline, sound judgment, and the ability to drive progress with incomplete information.

The successful candidate will be energized by building critical energy infrastructure, strengthening grid reliability, and advancing utility-scale storage projects that support growing U.S. power demand. This individual must be highly organized, detail-oriented, commercially aware, and comfortable leading internal subject matter experts, external counter parties, landowners, consultants, utilities, and regulatory stakeholders.

• Lead the advancement of utility-scale BESS and grid-critical energy development projects from origination through notice to proceed, commercial operation, and project handoff, as applicable.
• Prepare and present project materials, analyses, and recommendations for internal investment and stage-gate approvals, including Site Selection teams and other internal decision forums.
• Lead coordination with the Land team on site selection, landowner outreach, due diligence, and execution of real estate agreements required to secure and maintain project site control.
• Direct coordination with the Transmission and Interconnection team on queue strategy, interconnection application submittals, utility engagement, study management, and milestone compliance.
• Lead projects through environmental review, local permitting, and state-level approval processes in coordination with internal Peregrine teams and outside consultants.
• Direct coordination with Engineering, Procurement, and Construction teams on project design development, site layout optimization, constructability considerations, equipment strategy, and long-lead procurement planning.
• Work cross-functionally with the Finance team to provide, validate, and update project inputs used in underwriting, valuation, capital planning, and investment decision-making.
• Own project schedules, risk registers, action logs, and development budgets; identify critical path risks early and elevate issues with recommended mitigation strategies.
• Drive commercial readiness by ensuring development deliverables are sequenced appropriately for origination, financing, construction, and execution needs.
• Contribute to continuous improvement of internal development processes, tools, templates, and reporting disciplines, and help reinforce development execution standards across the platform.

• Work closely with Market Analytics and Origination teams to evaluate market opportunities, customer demand, and revenue considerations that inform development strategy, project prioritization, and commercial positioning.
• Lead the preparation of project-specific commercial materials and development inputs for bilateral opportunities, Requests for Proposals (RFPs), and structured offtake processes.
• Support the evaluation, execution, and negotiation of long-term structured transactions with wholesale, utility, C&I, municipal, cooperative, and retail counter parties by providing clear development judgment, schedule credibility, and risk assessment.
• Conduct research on customer energy procurement strategies, integrated resource planning, and market needs to help shape Peregrine's commercial approach and route-to-market strategy.
• Coordinate internal support teams through the sales and contracting process to enable timely, accurate, and competitive responses.
• Establish and maintain professional relationships with utilities, customers, consultants, and other external stakeholders relevant to project commercialization.

• 6+ years of experience in utility-scale battery storage, power markets, infrastructure development, project management, or a related field.
• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Finance, Economics, Environmental Studies, Business, Real Estate, Planning, or a related discipline.
