Our mission is to transform geothermal into America’s most dependable and affordable source of clean, around-the-clock power. By combining innovations in horizontal drilling, fiber-optic sensing, and advanced reservoir engineering, Fervo has developed a repeatable approach to building utility-scale enhanced geothermal systems.

Our flagship Cape Station development in Utah is planned to deliver 500 MW of firm, carbon-free power, and we are advancing a development pipeline of more than 50 GW. Join us and work alongside world-class engineers, geoscientists, operators, project builders, and business leaders working to make geothermal a cornerstone of a more reliable, affordable, and sustainable energy future.

The Development Manager, Energy Solutions will help shape how Fervo’s projects deliver power to customers with distinct or complex energy needs, including flexible, on-site, and behind-the-meter configurations that bridge the timing gap between generation and load. You will own the commercial and technical integration of these energy solutions from early concept through financeable, executable agreements, working closely with the Transmission & Interconnection, Commercial, Finance, and Legal teams.

Reporting directly to the Head of Development, this role is ideal for someone who moves fluidly between deal structuring, technical feasibility, and stakeholder management, and who is energized by building a new capability inside a fast-moving development organization.

Energy Solutions Development & Deal Execution

Own the path from concept to a financeable, executable agreement for Fervo’s advanced energy delivery arrangements, including decision logs, risk registers, and critical-path tracking, and make sure commercial terms and technical requirements stay aligned.

Structure and negotiate commercial terms for flexible and on-site power arrangements, partnering with Legal and Origination on contract frameworks, term sheets, and deal comparisons.

Coordinate with the Transmission & Interconnection team on technical feasibility, interconnection pathways, and utility requirements that inform deal structure and schedule.

Technical & Resource Integration

Partner with Fervo’s subsurface, drilling and completions, and engineering teams to align the geothermal resource plan with microgrid design an on-site load requirements.

Translate resource characteristics, generation profiles, and technical constraints into commercial and financing assumptions for behind-the-meter and microgrid deals.

Serve as the connective link between the geothermal resource, the microgrid, on-site power needs, so all are engineered, built and operated as one coherent system.

Financeability & Cross-Functional Integration

Translate technical and commercial inputs into a coherent, lender-ready narrative in partnership with Finance and Capital Markets.

Identify and track the risks, dependencies, and open issues that could affect financeability or executability, and drive them to resolution across internal and external stakeholders.

Prepare materials that clearly communicate deal status, tradeoffs, and recommendations for senior leadership.

Serve as a key point of contact for customers and partners exploring energy solutions with Fervo, building trust through clear, responsive communication.

Develop and maintain relationships with utilities, independent power producers, equipment providers, and other market participants relevant to flexible and on-site generation.
