  • Work with the Finance team on budget and long-term forecasting, consistent with the Company’s development plan
  • Partner with Land, Commercial, and Finance to advance opportunities — identifying and evaluating trades, swaps, and bolt-on transactions adding resource and extending inventory at attractive returns
Required Qualifications
  • Proven team-first mentality with a track record of actively collaborating across disciplines
  • Bachelor’s degree in Petroleum Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related discipline
  • 4 or more years of upstream operator experience, with a minimum of 2 years of dedicated reservoir engineering experience

  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to work independently
