  • Oversee technical reviews and provide recommendations for executive decision-making and investment committees.
  • Oversee the development of internal reporting dashboards and process documentation to enhance visibility and accountability.

Team & Culture Development
  • Mentor junior and mid-level engineers and planners to build organizational capability and technical excellence.
  • Foster a collaborative, solutions-driven team culture grounded in innovation, quality, and accountability.

  • 8+ years of experience in renewable energy, site development, or related engineering management roles.
  • Proven ability to manage cross-functional teams and external consultants in fast-paced, multi-project environments.
