Location This position offers a hybrid work environment with a preference for candidates located in Toronto, ON to foster more in‑person connections while maintaining our flexible work culture. 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. Owns 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. Develops 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. Coordinates with utilities, consultants, and internal stakeholders to align interconnection requirements with project design. Performance Modeling & Technical Analysis Builds and maintains SolarFarmer and/or PVsyst performance models through all design phases. 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 Oversight Participates 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. Support 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; Collaborate with corporate development, finance, and operations teams to translate technical findings into acquisition recommendations and post‑acquisition integration plans. Coordinates 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 trade‑off analyses. Operates as a hands‑on individual contributor with defined ownership of developer‑level design outputs. Requires limited oversight for standard design tasks; Does not serve as final stamping engineer or detailed EPC designer. Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or related field. Experience with utility‑scale solar PV and/or BESS projects. Proficiency with AutoCAD and PVCase (layout and SLD). Studies have shown that women and people of color are less likely to apply for jobs unless they believe they are able to perform every task in the
