Job Description

We're partnered with a high-growth platform focused on building one of the largest portfolios of distributed solar and storage assets in the U.S. They partner with Fortune 500s and large energy users to deliver cost-effective and impactful clean energy solutions.

They're an experienced team offering a direct path to shaping the future of distributed energy. They're seeking a motivated and analytically sharp early-career professional to join their development team.

Why This Role Is Compelling:

  • High-Impact & High-Visibility: Serving as the operational and analytical go-to for thousands of projects nationwide, sitting at the intersection of data, markets, and project execution, you will have a hand in building a platform from the ground up, with immediate exposure to executives, clients, and cross-functional teams.
  • Accelerated Career Growth: As the company scales, they are building multiple business units around this program. High performers have a clear and rapid path to leadership roles in market intelligence, strategy, development, and operations.
  • "Doer" Culture, Not A Bureaucracy: They are a flat-structured team that rewards initiative and curiosity. This is a place for those who want ownership and responsibility, not just a task list.
  • Deepen Your Expertise: Gain hands-on, practical knowledge in utility rate design, energy policy, solar & storage economics, and contractor management that is highly sought after in the renewable energy sector.

What You'll Do:

  • Perform utility rate analysis and support energy modeling to evaluate the economics of distributed solar and storage projects throughout the U.S.
  • Conduct market research on energy policies, incentives, and utility programs that impact project viability and development strategy.
  • Oversee contractor progress on applications, permitting, and interconnection across multiple markets.
  • Build and maintain dashboards, project trackers, and reports to communicate portfolio performance and key insights to leadership.
  • Transform raw project and utility data into actionable intelligence to drive decision-making and optimize development workflows.
  • Jump in operationally where needed, embodying a team-first mentality to ensure project success.

What You'll Bring:

  • A Bachelor's degree in a relevant field (e.g., Engineering, Economics, Data Analytics, Environmental Science) and 1-3 years of professional experience
  • Strong proficiency in Excel or Google Sheets (pivot tables, charting, dashboards)
  • Analytical mindset with comfort managing, interpreting, and drawing insights from large datasets
  • Exceptional organizational skills and the ability to prioritize competing projects in a fast-paced environment
  • Clear and professional written communication skills for both technical and non-technical audiences.
  • A genuine curiosity about renewable energy, utility markets, and a desire to build a career in the industry

Nice-to-Haves:

  • Exposure to solar modeling software (e.g., Aurora, Toolbase), Power BI, or SQL.
  • Experience interacting with contractors or managing project trackers.
  • Familiarity with utility rate structures and/or energy policy.
