Job description

QA/QC Lead - Solar
Role Type: Full-Time
Reporting To: QA/QC Manager / Project Manager
Project Sites: Juniper Solar (Chesterfield County, SC)
About CEC Energy Services
CEC Energy Services is a self-perform electrical construction and industrial services company operating across energy, industrial, and critical infrastructure markets. We execute complex, capital-intensive work where safety, reliability, and execution discipline matter. Our projects support the systems people and industries rely on, including power generation and distribution, industrial facilities, digital infrastructure, and utility-scale solar and battery energy storage systems (BESS).
CEC operates in environments where margins are earned through planning, coordination, and disciplined execution, not heroics. We partner with customers who expect professionalism, transparency, and accountability, and we hold ourselves to the same standard.
Our Culture (STRIVE©)
CEC's culture is built around STRIVE©: Safety, Teamwork, Reliability, Integrity, Versatility, and Execution. These are not slogans. They define how we operate and how decisions get made.
  • Safety comes first. We do not trade safety for schedule, margin, or convenience. Leaders are expected to plan work safely, enforce standards, and stop work when conditions are not right.
  • Teamwork means respecting the people doing the work and collaborating across the field, project, and office. We succeed through coordinated effort, clear roles, and shared accountability, not heroics.
  • Reliability is about doing what we say we will do. Commitments matter. Plans are realistic, promises are kept, and issues are surfaced early when conditions change.
  • Integrity guides how we work with customers, partners, and each other. We defend our scope, honor our contracts, tell the truth, and address problems directly.
  • Versatility means adapting to changing conditions without losing discipline. Our projects are complex and dynamic. We adjust plans thoughtfully and decisively as reality changes.
  • Execution is how we win. We plan the work, work the plan, measure performance, and correct early. Results matter, and accountability follows responsibility.

Role Summary
The QA/QC Lead is responsible for leading the quality assurance and quality control function on utility-scale solar construction projects. This role owns the site quality program - from inspection and test plan (ITP) execution through NCR management and final turnover documentation - and serves as the primary quality authority on site. The QA/QC Lead partners with field supervision, project leadership, and customer representatives to ensure all installation activities meet specifications, applicable codes, and contract quality requirements.
This is a field-based leadership role requiring a seasoned quality professional with direct utility-scale solar experience and the judgment to strengthen a site quality function as the work front scales.
Core Accountability
The QA/QC Lead is directly accountable for:
  • Leading all quality inspection activities across the assigned solar project scope
  • Developing, implementing, and maintaining the site Inspection and Test Plan (ITP)
  • Managing NCR (Non-Conformance Report) lifecycle from identification through closeout
  • Producing and organizing turnover documentation packages to meet contract requirements
  • Serving as the site-level quality authority and primary customer interface for quality matters
  • Coordinating with field supervision, subcontractors, and owner representatives on all quality hold points
  • Ensuring the site quality function is structured, staffed appropriately, and operating ahead of the work front

Execution Responsibilities
  • Develop and maintain the site ITP, quality procedures, and inspection checklists aligned to contract requirements
  • Perform and direct field inspections of DC and AC scope including module installation, string wiring, combiner boxes, MV collection systems, and civil/civil-structural work activities
  • Conduct open trench inspections for underground MV cable installation, conduit runs, and civil grading
  • Manage all NCR documentation including root cause, corrective action, and formal closeout with customer
  • Monitor quality hold points, witness points, and mandatory inspection gates in coordination with customer QA representatives
  • Coordinate and witness electrical testing activities including megger tests, continuity checks, and IV curve tracing
  • Review and approve material receiving inspection records against approved submittals
  • Prepare and maintain turnover packages including ITRs, test records, redlines, and as-built documentation
  • Participate in project quality meetings, preconstruction meetings, and weekly quality reviews
  • Mentor and support junior QA/QC Inspector(s) on daily inspection activities, documentation standards, and NCR processes
  • Support continuous improvement initiatives and lessons-learned processes across CEC solar quality operations
  • Maintain accurate records of all inspections, deficiencies, corrective actions, and approvals
  • Other duties as assigned

Leadership & Standards
  • Promote a culture of safety, accountability, and quality execution on site
  • Communicate professionally and proactively with field teams, customers, and project leadership
  • Maintain objectivity and consistency during inspections and reporting - quality decisions are not negotiable
  • Escalate quality concerns and NCRs promptly with supporting documentation
  • Live and promote STRIVE© values in daily interactions

Required Experience & Qualifications
  • 5+ years of QA/QC experience in industrial, energy, or electrical construction environments
  • Direct utility-scale solar construction experience required - DC scope, MV systems, and/or civil inspection preferred
  • Demonstrated experience managing Inspection and Test Plans (ITPs) on active construction sites
  • Proven track record managing NCR processes from identification through formal closeout
  • Experience preparing and delivering turnover packages to customer specifications
  • Ability to read and interpret construction drawings, one-line diagrams, civil/grading plans, and technical specifications
  • Strong working knowledge of electrical construction codes and standards applicable to solar (NEC, IEEE, IEC as applicable)
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office and digital quality/reporting tools
  • Excellent communication, documentation, and coordination skills
  • OSHA 10 or OSHA 30 certification preferred

Professional Discipline
  • Deep understanding of quality management systems and inspection methodology
  • Ability to lead site quality programs with minimal oversight
  • Commitment to complete, accurate, and audit-ready documentation
  • Strong judgment in identifying and escalating quality risk before it becomes rework
  • Collaborative approach to field supervision while maintaining quality authority

Measures of Success
  • ITP execution rates and inspection hold point compliance
  • NCR cycle time from identification to formal closeout
  • Accuracy and completeness of turnover documentation packages
  • Reduction in rework and quality deficiencies across site scope
  • Customer and project team confidence in site quality function
  • Compliance with contract quality requirements and delivery milestones

Working Conditions
  • Full-time field assignment at an active utility-scale solar construction site
  • Outdoor environment with exposure to varying weather and site conditions
  • Extended hours may be required based on project schedule and work front activity

Employment Conditions
  • Subject to satisfactory background check and drug/alcohol screening
  • Must comply with all company safety policies and procedures

Compensation & Benefits
Base Compensation: Competitive compensation commensurate with experience, scope of responsibility, and demonstrated capability.
Health Benefits: Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage options available for employees and eligible dependents.
Retirement Benefits: Participation in the company 401(k) plan, including employer matching, subject to plan terms and eligibility.
