Job Description

C&I Project Manager (Solar + Energy Storage)
End-to-End Ownership | Pre-Construction → Closeout

Join a tight-knit, fast-growing team where your work actually moves the needle .

We’re looking for a driven Commercial & Industrial (C&I) Project Manager to lead solar and battery energy storage (BESS) projects from early development all the way through construction and final closeout.

This is a true end-to-end ownership role —you’ll be at the center of everything, making sure projects are planned right, executed well, and delivered on time, on budget, and at a high standard of quality.

If you like solving complex problems, juggling moving pieces, and seeing tangible results from your work, you’ll feel right at home here.

Project Development & Pre-Construction

• Lead early project planning including site assessments, constructability reviews, project feasibility, and execution planning
• Coordinate engineering, design deliverables, and permitting activities
• Ensure all project components (designs, permits, materials) are ready prior to construction
• Align internal teams (sales, engineering, procurement) to ensure smooth project kickoff

Project Execution & Construction

• Oversee project execution from mobilization through completion
• Coordinate subcontractors, vendors, and field teams to ensure work progresses on schedule
• Monitor project performance, proactively identify risks, and resolve issues quickly
• Maintain control over schedule, cost, quality, and safety

Customer & Stakeholder Management

• Serve as the primary point of contact for customers throughout the project lifecycle
• Provide regular project updates and ensure a high-quality customer experience
• Resolve issues, discrepancies, and change requests in a timely manner

Budget, Schedule & Performance

• Develop and manage project schedules and key milestones
• Track project costs, manage change orders, and maintain financial performance
• Ensure projects are delivered on time and within budget
• Actively understand and contribute to shaping the master project pipeline

Commissioning & Closeout

• Oversee commissioning, system testing, and final performance verification
• Manage punch lists and ensure all deficiencies are resolved
• Lead project closeout including documentation, approvals, and customer handoff

• Projects delivered on time and on budget
• Seamless coordination across teams
• High-quality installations with strong performance
• Happy, informed customers throughout the process
• Risks identified early—not when they become problems

• 5+ years in project management, construction, or project engineering
• Experience with C&I solar projects (rooftop, carport, or ground-mount)
• Familiarity with BESS (big plus)
• Strong understanding of construction workflows & subcontractor management
• Ability to read electrical drawings & single-line diagrams
• Experience managing budgets, schedules, and multiple stakeholders
• Excellent communication, organization, and problem-solving skills

• Hybrid: field + remote
• Travel to project sites during key phases
• Hands-on exposure to construction sites, rooftops, and outdoor work

• Own projects from start to finish (no siloed responsibilities)
• Work on meaningful, real-world clean energy projects
• Join a growing team building scalable, high-quality operations
• Have a direct impact on how projects are delivered
