At Collective Energy, we are looking for candidates who want to be a part of something bigger than themselves – authentic, purpose-driven individuals who want their career to have a meaningful impact on the world. We want candidates who are strongly motivated, self-directed, thrive on helping develop processes and procedures, and are comfortable with a certain level of uncertainty in this early, fast-paced, and rapidly growing phase of the company. This is an opportunity to help shape the company's future direction, implement systems at scale, raise capital for growth, and support clean, resilient energy projects that make a positive impact on both the climate and the health and well-being of low-income and marginalized individuals across the country.
We are seeking a Microgrid Solar and Clean Energy Project Manager to join the team at Collective Energy. We are a small team and are looking for someone to be a “founding team member” of an early-stage, mission-driven solar and storage development and financing company.
The ideal candidate has experience with PV design and associated software for designing, laying out, and modeling systems and experience in energy storage systems (ESS) and in sizing appropriate systems for resilience and load shedding. Our system sizes range from 30kw-300kw PV, and 20kw-200kw ESS. Ideally, the candidate has an engineering background and/or an electrical background (C-10 license, for example). Candidate should also have experience managing contractors, sub-contractors, EPCs, engineers, and experience with permit submissions and working with utilities and AHJs.
We are looking for someone with intellectual curiosity, high motivation, a problem-solving mindset, interest in helping people, and who can efficiently manage multiple priorities while keeping Collective Energy’s and health centers’ best interests in mind. The ideal candidate will also be interested in implementing and using systems for operational sustainability and in helping the company grow from an early-stage startup to the scale we anticipate in the short and long term. And most importantly, follow our company’s North Star: keep the interests of the nonprofit hosts first, and do all we can to provide them with a valuable service and a solution to their problems of power loss, rising power costs, and environmental health challenges.
Candidates in Northeast locations only.
