100% Remote Opportunity | Work from Home

Shape the Future of Clean Energy

We're looking for a Civil Engineer who is passionate about renewable energy and ready to play a key role in designing distributed solar and battery storage projects (2-20 MW) across the U.S.

In this fully remote role, you'll be hands-on from early feasibility through construction support, helping bring impactful, carbon-reducing energy projects to life. If you're excited by innovation, collaboration, and seeing your designs turn into real-world infrastructure-this is your opportunity.

What You'll Do

+ Lead civil engineering design and scope development for distributed solar + storage projects

+ Evaluate site feasibility including grading, drainage, stormwater, hydrology, geotechnical conditions, and site access

+ Develop and refine site layouts and grading plans to maximize constructability, performance, and cost-efficiency

+ Design drainage and stormwater management systems aligned with regulatory requirements and long-term site performance

+ Plan and design access roads and utility routing for safe, efficient project execution

+ Support foundation design for PV arrays and battery energy storage systems (BESS)

+ Collaborate cross-functionally with engineering, development, construction, and external partners

+ Manage multiple projects simultaneously (typically 4-6 at a time) while maintaining high-quality deliverables

+ Contribute to design reviews, best practices, and continuous improvement initiatives

+ Communicate regularly with internal teams to keep projects aligned and moving forward

Qualifications (Must-Haves)

+ Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering (ABET-accredited)

+ 5+ years of civil engineering experience in land development, solar, or transmission/distribution

+ Strong proficiency with AutoCAD Civil 3D

+

Experience with :

+ Site layout & grading design

+ Drainage and stormwater systems

+ Road/access design

+ Ability to evaluate site feasibility across civil disciplines (grading, drainage, hydrology, geotechnical, access)

+ Strong multitasking ability across multiple active projects

+ Excellent communication and collaboration skills in a remote environment

+ Must reside in one of the following states:

+ Illinois

+ Virginia

+ Minnesota

+ Pennsylvania

+ EIT or equivalent foundational engineering experience

Preferred Experience

+ Civil design experience in renewable energy (solar, wind, or storage)

+ Background in transmission or distribution projects

+ Familiarity with land development processes for large-scale or distributed energy projects

+ Experience working across the full project lifecycle

+ Interest in growing within renewable energy and expanding technical expertise

Why This Role Stands Out

+ 100% remote flexibility - work from anywhere within approved states

+ High-impact work supporting the transition to clean energy

+ Exposure to the full project lifecycle-not just one phase

+ Join a tight-knit, collaborative team where your work is highly visible

+ Strong focus on mentorship, training, and career growth in renewable energy

+ Opportunity to grow into more senior or specialized roles over time

Work Environment

You'll be part of a small, highly collaborative civil/structural team where communication, support, and knowledge sharing are key. This is an environment where you'll:

+ Work closely with experienced engineers and designers

+ Receive hands-on mentorship to deepen your expertise in solar land development

+ Have a direct impact on project outcomes and team success

The organization is deeply committed to sustainability, innovation, and professional growth, investing heavily in your long-term development.
