Ensure layouts are optimized for space, safety, operational efficiency, and scalability, tailored to each customer’s specific needs.Customer-Specific Design and Customization:Collaborate directly with new customers to understand their unique energy requirements and site constraints. Create customized site layouts that meet customer expectations while optimizing operational and construction efficiency. Provide technical expertise and support throughout the design process.Cost Optimization & Innovative Construction Methods:Identify opportunities to reduce installation costs without compromising quality or safety. Work with EPC firms and internal product designers to introduce innovative construction methods and materials, such as modular or pre-fabricated solutions, to improve efficiency and reduce on-site labor costs. Manage the requirements between the EPC firms and product design.Collaboration with EPC Firms:Work closely with EPC contractors to ensure that site layouts align with the design requirements, construction capabilities, and cost constraints. Provide technical guidance to EPC teams and identify opportunities to reduce construction costs and timelines through innovative construction methods.Construction Standards & Code Compliance:Ensure that all designs meet relevant industry standards, safety regulations, and building codes (e.g., NFPA, OSHA, IEC). Ensure that site layouts comply with local zoning and permitting requirements.System Integration & Layout Optimization:Integrate fuel cell systems with existing infrastructure, such as electrical distribution and backup power systems. Design layouts that allow for seamless integration, with a focus on system performance, ease of access for maintenance, and long-term reliability. Plan adjacency to MEP yards, intakes/exhaust, noise setbacks, crane access, and expansion zones; protect uptime and maintainability. Engineer water/DI water, cooling water or dry-cooler interfaces, drains/blowdown/neutralization, gas/hydrogen supply, vent/relief stacks, purges, and condensate management; ensure backflow prevention, metering, and safe discharge locations.Site Survey & Assessment:Conduct site surveys for new customer locations to assess space, environmental conditions, and infrastructure. Provide recommendations for site preparation, including land grading, utility connections, and foundation requirements for fuel cell systems.Documentation & Reporting:Prepare and maintain clear documentation for site layouts, permitting, and construction plans. Provide customers with detailed documentation and reports to ensure transparency and alignment with project goals.Job Requirement - QualificationsEducation:Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.Experience:10+ years of experience in designing site layouts for complex energy systems, preferably fuel cells or similar technologies (e.g., power plants, renewable energy systems). Experience with customer-facing roles and understanding customer requirements for energy systems is essential.Experience with Data Center design a plus.Technical Skills:Able to apply first principles logic and methods.Strong understanding of construction standards, regulations, and codes.Proficiency in CAD software (e.g., AutoCAD, Revit) for creating site layouts and construction drawings.Experience with structural, mechanical integration on site power generation. Electrical knowledge a plus.Familiarity with modular construction methods, prefabrication, and cost-effective construction practices.Knowledge of power distribution systems, backup power, and energy storage solutions as they relate to fuel cell systems.Customer-Facing Skills:Excellent communication skills, with the ability to effectively interact with customers to understand their needs and deliver tailored, high-quality solutions. Proven experience with a commercial mindset: Managing customer expectations, providing technical support, and delivering complex energy solutions while identifying opportunities to bring additional value to the customer.Problem-Solving & Innovation:Ability to identify challenges in site design and construction and propose innovative solutions that meet both cost and technical requirements.Strong analytical skills to optimize layouts for efficiency and scalability.Project Management Skills:Strong project management skills, with the ability to coordinate multiple stakeholders and ensure timely delivery of designs.Qualifications (preferred)Hands-on experience with the installation and commissioning of fuel cell systems or other power generation systems.Knowledge of advanced construction techniques, including modular construction or pre-fabrication methods for energy system installations.Experience in working with energy storage solutions or hybrid energy systems.OtherOccasional travel to customer sites for site surveys, project coordination, and construction oversight.Ability to work in both office and field environments, with some physical site inspections and involvement in the construction process.All personal information will be kept confidential according to EEO guidelines.Questions can be addressed through the HR department at or
