Senior BESS Superintendent (EPC) — Boots on the Ground for Grid-Scale Storage
McCarran, NV (travel/relocation to project sites — IL, MI, TX & future locations) | Full-Time | $135,000 – $175,000
The Opportunity
Grid-scale battery projects live or die in the field — and the superintendent is where it all comes together. Our client, a rapidly scaling clean energy innovator, is hiring a Senior BESS Superintendent to lead field deployment of battery energy storage systems, associated infrastructure, and solar across a growing multi-state pipeline. You'll be onsite daily, running in-house installers, subs, and vendors, setting the standard for quality and safety while keeping production humming.
Why You'll Love It
- The front line of the storage boom: Hands-on leadership of BESS installations coast to coast
- Full field authority: Site work, MV/LV electrical, and BESS install — your site, your standards
- Team-first leadership: This role prioritizes proactive management and crew performance, not desk work
- Project variety: IL, MI, TX, and new markets ahead
What You'll Do
- Supervise project work and coordinate between engineering, estimating, subcontractors, and field crews for compliance with drawings, specs, budget, and schedule
- Plan work methods, materials, equipment, and production schedules; adjust plans to mitigate risks before they bite
- Interpret project specifications for job setup, execution, inspections, and closeout per company and AHJ requirements
- Manage site work, site access, MV-to-LV electrical work, and BESS installation
- Coordinate internal teams, vendors, utilities, and regulatory agencies to keep everything arriving on schedule
- Enforce strict safety, process control, and documentation standards across electrical systems, transformers, generators, and site operations
- Lead alignment meetings, document activities, and develop your workforce
What You'll Bring
- 12+ years of construction supervision, preferably General or Electrical Contractor — BESS and commercial solar experience strongly preferred
- Bachelor's degree a plus
- STS certification and OSHA 30 preferred; valid driver's license
- Strong written and verbal communication
- 3D model/Navisworks/clash review experience preferred
- Advanced knowledge of site equipment operation and maintenance
- Sharp plan-reading and problem-solving instincts
- Willingness to travel or relocate to project sites for project duration (IL, MI, TX, and future locations)
