Completions Engineer

Fervo Energy (NASDAQ: FRVO) is a modern power company developing next-generation geothermal resources to meet the growing demand for affordable, reliable, 24/7 carbon-free energy. 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 Completions Engineer is responsible for the technical design, planning, and execution of Fervo’s geothermal well completions and workover activities, spanning initial stimulation through ongoing intervention and optimization. This role is central to translating subsurface objectives into safe, repeatable, and cost-effective field operations and plays a key role in scaling Fervo’s development model from pilot projects to commercial deployment.

Working closely with subsurface, drilling, production, and facilities teams, the Completions Engineer provides hands-on technical leadership during both planning and execution phases. Success in this role requires comfort operating in high-ambiguity, execution-heavy environments, frequent field engagement, and a strong bias toward learning-driven iteration and operational excellence.

Completions & Workover Engineering Execution

Lead the technical design, planning, and execution of geothermal well completions, stimulations, and workover/intervention operations.

Develop detailed, step-by-step operational procedures to safely achieve well objectives in compliance with regulatory and internal HSE requirements.

Provide hands-on field engineering support during active operations and serve as the primary point of contact for completion and intervention-related issues.

Support execution across the full well lifecycle, including initial completions, stimulation, recompletions, remedial work, and well interventions.

Well Design Optimization & Subsurface Integration

Partner with subsurface and reservoir engineering teams to optimize completion architecture, stimulation designs, and operational parameters.

Utilize Res Frac or other industry-leading simulators to evaluate fracture behavior, completion efficiency, and well performance.

Support cross-functional well planning and field development optimization efforts across drilling, production, and facilities teams.

Translate subsurface objectives into executable field designs that balance performance, risk, and cost.

Develop completion and workover cost estimates ranging from early scoping estimates to detailed AFE-level and probabilistic estimates.

Support well planning and operational scheduling activities in coordination with cross-functional teams.

Compile technical and operational data required for permitting, regulatory filings, and internal approvals.

Support preparation of technical documentation for internal and external reviews.

Operational Learning, Risk Management & Field Engagement

Apply risk assessment, hazard analysis, and Management of Change (MOC) processes to planned and active operations.

Lead post-job reviews and after-action analyses to capture lessons learned and identify best practices.

Drive continuous improvement by incorporating operational learnings into future designs, procedures,…
