We're looking for an experienced electrical engineer to design commercial and industrial battery storage systems. As an Energy Storage Design Engineer (C&I), you'll visit customer sites, assess their electrical infrastructure, and create preliminary system designs that are ready for permitting and installation. This role focuses on medium-voltage applications and requires translating complex technical solutions into clear value propositions for business customers.

• Conduct comprehensive site assessments specializing in commercial, industrial, and utility customers to gather essential data for project planning.
• Develop preliminary system designs to facilitate early-stage project discussions.
• Act as the primary point of contact with our customers during the design and installation process, maintaining regular communication to keep them informed.
• Translate complex technical systems and industrial-grade processes into clear, accessible concepts and language for non-technical decision makers in business and industrial settings.
• Analyze energy usage and operational performance data to inform design decisions and optimize system performance.
• Collaborate with internal teams to ensure seamless transition from design to implementation.
• Validate that systems are installed according to plan and meet customer expectations, which may involve travel to customer locations.
• This is a hybrid position with approximately 75% of work performed from your home office and 25% travel for site visits and project evaluations. Travel is primarily day trips within Utah, with occasional overnight stays in-state or out-of-state as projects require.

• Typically requires a degree in a related technical field like Electrical Engineering or Renewable Energy, but we value diverse learning paths and welcome candidates who demonstrate relevant experience – such as Journeyman Lineman or Electrician.
• 3-5+ years of experience conducting system design and site evaluations for commercial, industrial, and renewable energy projects, with a focus on optimizing performance, cost-efficiency, and regulatory compliance.
• Experience with medium voltage electrical systems and power distribution. (~4-12.5 kV)
• Strong familiarity with applicable codes and standards governing renewable energy systems and storage installations, including the National Electrical Code (NEC) and other relevant local and national regulations.
• Solid understanding of renewable energy technologies, including battery storage solutions, grid-tied systems, and emerging trends shaping the commercial and industrial energy landscape.
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to translate complex technical information into clear, actionable insights for stakeholders at all levels.
• Highly developed problem-solving skills and strong attention to detail, ensuring quality and consistency throughout all project phases.
• Valid driver's license, satisfactory driving record and ability to operate a company vehicle.

• High voltage experience, utility interconnection projects or utility scale energy installations is preferred.
• Experience with design rendering using Aurora (preferred) or similar tools like Solo.
• NABCEP Board Certification
