EPC Consultant | Assisting Renewable professionals in recognizing and achieving their career goals in the space.
About the Company
A fast-growing renewable energy technology company is building software and hardware systems that help solar and wind power plants convert operational losses into revenue. The team operates a vertically integrated stack spanning predictive energy forecasting, real-time control systems, edge computing, and hardware orchestration at scale.
The company is backed by leading climate and deep-tech investors and is expanding deployments across multiple geographies.
Role Overview
The company is seeking a
Senior Controls Engineer
to build core infrastructure that supports large-scale deployments of distributed energy systems. This role focuses on the systems that power deployment, monitoring, reliability, and power plant controller (PPC) integrations across both wind and solar assets.
You will work across the Deploy and Pipeline engineering teams to connect operational control systems with renewable energy plant coordination, enabling the company to scale its footprint and reliability across new energy partners and regions.
Key Responsibilities
Design, implement, and maintain the company’s central Control Center, the primary interface for deploying, monitoring, and managing field infrastructure
Build post-deployment reliability and quality control tools for fault detection, issue triage, and performance benchmarking
Collaborate closely with firmware, hardware, and deployment teams to integrate telemetry, diagnostics, and alerting
Build and maintain PPC integrations to coordinate with wind and solar power plants at the edge
Implement industrial protocols and control logic for interoperability with inverters, SCADA systems, and grid signals (Modbus, OPC-UA, etc.)
Translate grid curtailment, frequency response, and voltage/watt control requirements into actionable compute load modulation
Ideal Qualifications
Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science or related field
2–5+ years of experience building infrastructure, systems software, or industrial control applications
Proficiency in one or more programming languages such as Python or C++
Familiarity with industrial protocols and real‑time control systems
Experience with cloud platforms and distributed systems
Exposure to renewable energy systems, power electronics, or plant‑level integrations is a strong plus
Strong debugging skills and systems thinking, with comfort working close to hardware and across multiple layers of the stack
Nice to Have
Experience with SCADA or HMI systems
Background in inverter integration, grid‑tied systems, or energy forecasting
Knowledge of containerized deployment (Docker/Kubernetes) or observability tooling
Experience with IoT and edge‑compute devices such as NVIDIA Jetson, Raspberry Pi, or similar platforms
What the Company Offers
Equity options in a rapidly scaling, well‑funded technology company
Comprehensive premium healthcare coverage for employees and dependents
Seniority level
Mid‑Senior level
