Description
One of Terawatt's Core Values is “Electrify the Customer.” Terawatt is seeking a Field Electrical Engineer with strong working knowledge of primary and secondary electrical systems to serve as the field technical lead for construction, commissioning, energization, and ongoing operation of its EV charging sites across North America. This is an experienced professional role: you’ll work from limited information and precedent, adapt established approaches to novel field conditions, and develop engineering solutions with review from senior engineering leadership at key milestones.
In this role, you will independently evaluate field inspections against design intent, exercise engineering judgment to resolve discrepancies and non-conformances that do not have a predefined answer, and make real-time technical decisions with contractors, utility engineers, and Authorities Having Jurisdiction (AHJs), escalating high stakes or precedent setting calls to senior engineers You will assess incomplete or ambiguous field information, apply analytical techniques to identify root cause, and adapt commissioning and energization approaches site to site rather than following a fixed checklist. You will also advise senior engineering, Construction & Development, and Operations stakeholders.
You will work closely with the Head of Hardware & Electrical Systems and associated engineers while exercising independent professional judgment and partnering cross-functionally with Construction, Development, Energy, and Operations (Field Service team).
