For more than a decade, Crescent and our predecessors have executed on a consistent strategy focused on cash flow, risk management and returns. Through disciplined and accretive investments, we have successfully tripled the size of our company since going public in December 2021 while maintaining a strong balance sheet.

The Operations Engineer – Well Interventions will be responsible for the engineering, planning, and execution of Crescent Energy's growing heavy workover and well intervention program. Initial activity will be focused on refracs, recompletions, lateral cleanouts, and complex well interventions, with the scope expected to expand as the program develops. This position will work closely with Drilling, Completions, Production, Reservoir Engineering, Asset Development, and Supply Chain to evaluate opportunities and safely execute technically complex well interventions.

As an early member of a developing function, this individual will also play a key role in establishing the technical standards, operating practices, cost benchmarks, and processes required to scale the program. The ideal candidate combines strong engineering fundamentals with significant field and operational experience and is comfortable troubleshooting complex well conditions and making real-time operational decisions.

• Engineer, plan, and execute heavy workover and well intervention operations, including refracs, recompletions, lateral cleanouts, re-entry operations, casing remediation, and other complex interventions.
• Evaluate proposed workover candidates for technical feasibility, operational risk, expected duration, and execution cost.
• Review historical well construction, completion design, casing/tubular condition, cementing history, production history, previous interventions, pressure history, and known well-integrity issues.
• Develop detailed operational programs including well-control requirements, barrier philosophy, equipment selection, operating procedures, pressure limitations, risk assessments, and contingency plans.
• Develop AFE estimates, cost forecasts, and execution schedules and track actual performance against plan.
• Lead pre-job planning, risk reviews, and operational readiness reviews with internal teams, field personnel, and service providers.
• Provide direct engineering support during field execution and lead troubleshooting of unplanned or abnormal operating conditions.
• Coordinate workover rigs, coiled tubing, snubbing, wireline, hydraulic fracturing, fishing, pressure-control equipment, flowback, and other specialty services as required.
• Work with Supply Chain to develop appropriate vendor strategies, commercial structures, and service-provider performance expectations.
• Develop and maintain standardized Heavy Workover engineering practices, program templates, operating procedures, and execution standards.
• Lead post-job reviews and incorporate lessons learned into subsequent designs and operating practices.
• Develop performance benchmarks including $/well, days/well, NPT, intervention success rate, and AFE vs. actual performance.
• Maintain a strong focus on safety, well control, well integrity,…
