NextEra

Requisition ID: 94576

We deliver tailored energy solutions that fuel economic growth, strengthen communities, and help customers achieve their energy goals. Ready to make a lasting impact? Take the next step in your career with us!
Position Specific Description
NextEra Energy is advancing a significant gas generation development portfolio, and Engineering & Construction is at the center of that work. We are seeking a Director to lead E&C's engagement across all gas project development activities - from technology due diligence and FEED studies to construction readiness within NextEra's federal hub portfolio.
This is a high-visibility, cross-functional leadership role operating at the intersection of Generation Development, Integrated Supply Chain (ISC), and E&C. The ideal candidate is comfortable leading without full organizational authority, thrives in an origination-driven environment with competing urgencies, and brings a disciplined approach to budget, scope and schedule management, risk identification, and team leadership.
What You'll Do
Gas Technology and Commercial Due Diligence:
Lead E&C's participation in gas technology and commercial due diligence, evaluating achievable commercial commitments, constructability, site integration complexity, utility interconnection requirements (electrical, gas, water, etc.), and preliminary cost positioning across competing technologies and configurations (combined cycle, simple cycle, peaking)
Identify and document E&C-specific technology and commercial risks, including balance-of-plant configuration alternatives, supply chain maturity and availability for major equipment and contractors, and site-specific civil and interconnection constraints
Develop and maintain E&C due diligence frameworks and evaluation criteria to support technology and configuration down-select decisions in coordination with Generation Development leadership
Provide E&C technical and commercial input into OEM and contractor meetings, site visits, and technology assessments, ensuring construction and engineering perspectives are represented early in the selection process
Coordinate with E&C SMEs to evaluate technology-specific balance-of-plant and electrical interconnection requirements, including switchyard and transmission infrastructure, gas and water supply requirements, and waste water and air emissions compliance requirements
Gas Project Development, Technical Oversight & Risk Identification:
Lead E&C participation in Technology Review, capital estimate and project schedule development, and Preliminary Engineering phases across active gas development projects
Own the development and continuous improvement of E&C gas project estimating and scheduling tools, ensuring cost and schedule benchmarks reflect current scope and project execution assumptions, equipment pricing, and risk contingencies
Maintain a living E&C Risk Register, tracking scope, schedule, cost, and constructability risks across all active gas project work streams
Proactively identify when Development-driven scope changes introduce E&C cost or schedule risk
Establish clear accountability at the E&C scope boundary, distinguishing risks originating within E&C from those introduced by Generation Development or Integrated Supply Chain decisions
Coordinate E&C SME resources in support of gas project site configuration reviews and risk assessments
Lead E&C's participation in commercial offtake agreement negotiation, site permitting, and interconnection processes, ensuring construction-phase dependencies are identified and tracked against development and regulatory milestones
Procurement & Integrated Supply Chain Coordination:
Partner with Integrated Supply Chain on procurement support activities - including RFQ input, commercial and technical scope review, and bid evaluation for major gas project equipment and EPC/EPCM scopes
Lead bid evaluation activities, including cost comparison analysis between E&C estimates and contractor proposals, flagging material variances as risk indicators requiring scope alignment review
Identify and escalate scope discrepancies between E&C estimating inputs and contractor bids before award decisions
Flag procurement risks associated with long-lead equipment (combustion turbines, steam turbines, HRSGs, transformers, switchgear) and supply chain constraints in a capacity-constrained OEM market
Lead bid recommendation and contract negotiation activities to execute the highest value contracts supporting project goals with acceptable levels of risk, while managing portfolio-level relationships.
Project Controls & Reporting:
Drive schedule development, cost benchmarking, cashflow modeling, and risk-adjusted cost positioning in support of project sanction decisions
Maintain and report on the E&C gas project risk register, ensuring leadership has timely visibility into emerging risks, mitigation actions, and residual exposure
Champion process improvement within E&C project development workflows, including integration of project data and risk tracking into project management platforms
Leadership:
Build and lead a high-performing gas project development team within E&C, supporting a single federal hub Program Director and their engineering and construction leads
Provide strategic clarity on sequencing, resourcing, and risk tolerance in an origination-driven environment with competing priorities
Foster a proactive risk culture - ensuring risks are surfaced early rather than discovered at sanction or construction
What You'll Need:
Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Construction Management, or related field
12+ years of experience in energy project development or large capital construction, with demonstrated leadership in complex, multi-stakeholder environments
Deep expertise in EPC/EPCM project delivery, cost estimating, schedule development, and project risk management for gas generation projects
Deep expertise in major equipment and EPC/EPCM contract procurement including bid preparation, evaluation, negotiation and award
Proven ability to lead through ambiguity in early-stage, origination-led development programs
Proven ability to effectively communicate with internal and external stakeholders including executive management and public officials
Experience with balance-of-plant scopes including electrical interconnection, switchyard, and transmission infrastructure, natural gas supply, water supply and waste water disposal
Demonstrated experience conducting commercial and technical due diligence and risk assessments on gas generation technologies
Preferred:
Experience with combined cycle or simple cycle gas development across multiple geographies and regulatory environments
Familiarity with MISO, PJM, or ERCOT interconnection processes and associated E&C scope implications
Experience managing long-lead equipment procurement in constrained OEM markets (GE Vernova, Siemens, Mitsubishi)
What Sets You Apart:
You lead across organizational boundaries without direct authority and make it look seamless
You surface risks before they become problems - and you build teams that do the same
You bring structure and discipline to early-stage development environments that others find ambiguous
You are equally comfortable in an OEM technical meeting, a leadership budget review or County Commissioner hearing
You have a sharp eye for cost - you know when a bid is telling you something about scope alignment, not just price
