The Senior Project Manager (PM) Microgrid & Off-Grid Project Execution is responsible for the complete and satisfactory execution of the entire project and reports to the Project Execution Manager. The PM leads the project from transition through closeout, with primary accountability for project financial performance. The role manages every aspect that may affect profitability while ensuring contract compliance, safe execution, quality delivery, schedule performance, and Owner satisfaction.

As the company representative to the Owner, design professionals, contractors, vendors, authorities, and other external stakeholders, the PM is ultimately accountable for the project's success or failure. The ideal candidate brings hands‑on experience executing microgrid and off‑grid projects involving integrated electrical systems, distributed energy resources (DERs), battery energy storage systems (BESS), photovoltaic generation, generators, controls, and field commissioning.

What will you do?
  • Lead the execution of grid-connected, islandable, and off‑grid microgrid projects from engineering handoff through commissioning, turnover, and warranty transition.
  • Manage the integration of BESS, solar PV, generators, switch gear, controls, communications, and energy management systems to deliver fully operational microgrid solutions.
  • Coordinate cross‑functional teams including engineering, contractors, equipment suppliers, commissioning specialists, utilities, and customers to ensure seamless project delivery.
  • Oversee factory testing, site acceptance testing, energization, controls integration, commissioning, and final system startup.
  • Drive resolution of technical, operational, and commercial challenges while managing project risks, changes, and customer expectations.
  • Own project scope, schedule, budget, forecasting, procurement, and financial performance throughout the project lifecycle.
  • Lead customer and stakeholder communications, providing clear updates on project progress, milestones, risks, and key decisions.
  • Ensure projects are delivered safely, on time, within budget, and with complete documentation, training, and closeout packages.
What qualifications will make you successful?
  • Bachelor's degree in business, engineering, construction management, or a related discipline. PMP certification is preferred.

  • 5+ years of progressive project management or project execution experience in construction, electrical infrastructure, energy, controls, or a related field.

  • Demonstrated experience executing microgrid, off‑grid, islandable, distributed energy, BESS, PV, generator, or complex electrical integration projects.

  • Working knowledge of project finance, tender management, contract proposals, order entry, procurement, purchasing, forecasting, billing, and change control.

  • Experience managing project sites, general contractors, electrical contractors, subcontractors, vendors, commissioning partners, and multi‑disciplinary engineering teams.

  • Practical technical understanding of electrical contracts, single‑line diagrams, switch gear, protection and controls, electrical distribution equipment, and system interfaces.

  • Experience coordinating FAT, SAT, energization, functional testing, commissioning, and project turnover is strongly preferred.

  • Proficiency with Procore or a comparable construction management platform and confidence using scheduling, financial, and reporting tools.

  • Ability to travel to project sites as required and operate effectively in active construction and commissioning environments.

  • Applicants must be authorized to work in the United States on a full‑time, ongoing basis. The company does not provide immigration sponsorship now or in the future.
