Construction Project Engineer I - Solar
We are seeking a Construction Project Engineer I to support the delivery of utility-scale and commercial solar projects from pre-construction through completion. Working with project managers, site teams, subcontractors, vendors, and engineering consultants, you will help coordinate technical, commercial, and construction activities to ensure projects are delivered safely, efficiently, and in accordance with approved plans, specifications, schedules, and budgets. This is an excellent opportunity for an early-career engineer to build practical experience in renewable energy construction and develop into a project leadership role.
Responsibilities include reviewing drawings, specifications, submittals, requests for information, and material documentation; assisting with project schedules, progress tracking, cost reporting, and change management; coordinating engineering deliverables and resolving field issues with relevant stakeholders; supporting procurement, equipment deliveries, inspections, testing, and commissioning activities; maintaining accurate project records and preparing status reports; and participating in site meetings, safety reviews, quality inspections, and construction planning. You will also help monitor subcontractor performance, verify work against contract requirements, support closeout documentation, and contribute to continuous improvement initiatives. Regular travel to project sites may be required.
Applicants should have a bachelor’s degree in civil, electrical, mechanical, construction engineering, or a related discipline, along with relevant internship, co-op, or early professional experience in construction, engineering, infrastructure, or renewable energy. Knowledge of construction methods, project controls, engineering documentation, and health and safety practices is preferred. The successful candidate will be organised, analytical, detail-oriented, and comfortable communicating with both technical and non-technical stakeholders. Proficiency with Microsoft Office and familiarity with scheduling, document control, estimating, or construction management software are advantageous. A valid driver’s licence and the ability to travel to active jobsites may be required. Experience with solar photovoltaic systems, electrical distribution, civil site work, or commissioning is helpful but not essential.
