Job Description

Renewable Energy Engineer (Entry-Level)

Location: Newark, NJ (hybrid)

Salary: $80,000 - $100,000, depending on experience

Type: Full-time

About us

We are a clean energy company that develops, builds, owns and operates renewable projects across the United States. Our growing portfolio spans utility-scale solar, wind and battery energy storage (BESS), and as a long-term owner we stay with every project from the first feasibility study through years of operation. New Jersey is a leading state for solar and a gateway to the offshore wind build-out on the East Coast, and our Newark team is growing with it.

What you will do

  • You will support engineering across our project pipeline, learning from experienced engineers while taking on real responsibility from the start. Your work will include:
  • Supporting engineering design and technical reviews for solar, wind and BESS projects at every stage
  • Preparing energy production estimates, site evaluations and technical due diligence
  • Assisting with interconnection applications and coordination with utilities and PJM processes
  • Reviewing technical submittals from EPC contractors, consultants and equipment vendors
  • Supporting construction and commissioning, with travel to project sites across the Northeast
  • Analyzing performance data from our operating fleet and recommending improvements
  • Contributing to the tools, templates and standards our engineering team runs on

What we are looking for

  • A bachelor's degree in electrical, mechanical, civil or environmental engineering, or a related field
  • A demonstrated interest in renewable energy and the clean energy transition
  • Strong analytical ability and comfort working with data and spreadsheets
  • Clear written and verbal communication, with the ability to make technical topics simple
  • Initiative and curiosity: you take ownership, ask good questions and learn quickly
  • Authorization to work in the United States
  • Internship, co-op or project experience in energy is a plus but not required. We hire for aptitude and attitude, and we invest in developing our engineers.

What we offer

  • $80,000 - $100,000 base salary, depending on experience
  • Hybrid working from our Newark office
  • A structured development path with mentorship from senior engineers
  • Hands-on exposure to the full project lifecycle across three technologies
  • Health, dental and vision coverage, 401(k) with company match, and generous PTO
  • Support for professional development, including PE licensure
  • The chance to grow with a company building and operating real clean energy assets

How to apply

Apply with your resume and a short note on why this role interests you. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis.

  • We are an equal opportunity employer.
