Overview:The Interconnection & PV/BESS Design Engineer supports utility-scale photovoltaic (PV) and battery energy storage system (BESS) projects from early development through EPC execution. This role serves as the developer’s technical representative through ~30% design and as an owner’s design steward thereafter, ensuring design intent, performance assumptions, and interconnection requirements are consistently carried forward into EPC-led detailed engineering.
Key Responsibilities
Core Responsibilities & AccountabilityOwns developer-level PV and BESS layouts, single-line diagrams, through all interconnection phases and 30% design.
Acts as the design authority for early-stage and pre-EPC design decisions; accountable for technical completeness and accuracy at handoff.
Represents owner design intent during EPC execution, ensuring performance, constructability, and interconnection assumptions are preserved.
Responsible for identifying design risks, performance impacts, and constructability issues and elevating them with clear recommendations.
Early Development & InterconnectionDevelops preliminary PV and BESS site layouts and electrical single-line diagrams using PVCase and AutoCAD.
Integrates utility, land, environmental, and permitting constraints into early design packages.
Supports utility interconnection applications and studies by supplying layouts, system parameters, and modeling assumptions.
Coordinates with utilities, consultants, and internal stakeholders to align interconnection requirements with project design.
Performance Modeling & Technical AnalysisAssist in the creation and maintenance of performance models through all design phases.
Establishes and documents modeling assumptions, including losses, degradation, clipping strategy, and curtailment considerations.
Supports Independent Engineer reviews by providing transparent, defensible modeling inputs and documentation.
Ensures performance assumptions align with long-term asset ownership and financing requirements.
Pre‑EPC Design Development (to ~30%)Advances layouts and electrical design content to support EPC pricing, constructability review,
and risk evaluation.
Ensures alignment between interconnection requirements and plant-level electrical design.
Documents design intent, constraints, and open items prior to EPC handoff.
EPC Transition & Design OversightParticipates in EPC kickoff meetings as the owner’s design representative.
Communicates design assumptions, performance drivers, and constraints to EPC partners.
Reviews EPC-issued design packages (IFC and revisions) for conformance with approved layouts, performance assumptions, and interconnection commitments.
M&A; Development and OversightSupport M&A; activities by performing technical due diligence to assess facility, site, and infrastructure viability, risks, and capital requirements.
Develop conceptual layouts and engineering models (up to ~30% design) for acquired or target assets to validate capacity, footprint, and redevelopment or expansion scenarios.
Conduct preliminary building, fire, zoning, and life‑safety code reviews; identify compliance gaps and develop code enforcement and mitigation strategies in coordination with AHJs.
Collaborate with development, finance, and operations teams to translate technical findings into acquisition recommendations and post‑acquisition integration plans.
Cross‑Functional CoordinationCoordinates closely with Development, Origination, Finance, Construction, and Asset Management teams.
Translates technical design decisions into clear impacts for non‑engineering stakeholders.
Supports internal decision-making by providing clear technical recommendations and tradeoff analyses.
Role Leveling NotesOperates as a hands-on individual contributor with defined ownership of developer-level design outputs.
Requires limited oversight for standard design tasks
