Project Developer

Senior Associate, DG Project Development Remote (EST) | Solar + Storage | Community Solar / C&I / Small Utility-Scale A high-growth, founder-led developer is hiring a Senior Associate to help run distributed generation projects from site control through NTP across the East Coast and Mid-Atlantic. This is a pure-play clean energy platform with a real pipeline across community solar, C&I, and small utility-scale. The team is nimble, geographically dispersed, and entrepreneurial. You'd report directly to the Chief Distributed Generation Officer and own a meaningful slice of the pipeline, not sit three layers deep in process. What you'll do Drive a subset of the DG pipeline from site control to NTP. That means managing vendors, timelines, budgets, and the day-to-day work of getting projects across the line. You'll handle monthly and quarterly reporting on budgets, timelines, and risk for internal and investor audiences. You'll support market growth through policy tracking, negotiating land control, and screening new opportunities. Expect to be on the road 25-30% of the time for landowner meetings, permitting hearings, and community engagement, often at short notice.
