The company A quick-growing, VC-backed Quebec cleantech company designs and operates autonomous water production systems powered by renewable energy. Solutions are deployed internationally to municipal, industrial, and tourism customers. Role The company is hiring a senior electrical engineer to lead the design, optimization, and sourcing of solar PV systems paired with battery energy storage (BESS). The hire essentially produces the technical blueprint: electrical architecture, component selection, direct negotiation with international suppliers. Execution teams then deploy the projects on-site, with the hire’s support during critical commissioning. The mandate weighs technical performance, cost discipline, and speed of execution equally. The hire is expected to challenge standard practices and bring a design perspective that accelerates future deployments. Responsibilities Design and architecture – produce the electrical blueprint for PV + BESS systems for off-grid applications, optimized for $/kWh delivered and time to commissioning. Strategic sourcing – actively shop and negotiate directly with manufacturers (inverters, batteries, panels, protections, racking). Maintain a validated‑supplier shortlist. PV BESS load integration – specify BESS (chemistry, SOC window, C‑rate, BMS) consistent with the industrial load profile. Permitting – solid understanding of applicable regulatory requirements. Optimize and accelerate approval processes through pre‑certified component selection, appropriate topology choices, and continuous process improvement.



Commissioning support – back up execution teams during critical startups; validate design choicesin the field and feed lessons into subsequent designs. Candidate profile 8–15 years delivering solar + storage projects. Demonstrated background in C&I integration, small/mid‑scale development, or off‑grid / microgrid projects. Personal commissioning of multiple projects; field‑comfortable. Proven ability to optimize BOMs and challenge oversized specifications. Comfortable selecting and negotiating directly with international suppliers. Working knowledge of hybrid inverters, battery chemistries (LFP, NMC), and BMS integration. Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering; OIQ membership or equivalent is an asset. Fluent French and English required; functional Spanish is astrong asset. Experience in corrosive or coastal environments is a strong asset. Conditions Full‑time position based in Sherbrooke (QC), with periodic international travel. Startup environment, real autonomy, experienced technical team. The company supports internal advancement: an open growth path toward a leadership role based on performance and portfolio evolution.
