About this role
Energy Project Solutions is seeking a Construction Superintendent to oversee high-voltage electrical work on utility-scale renewable energy projects—solar, battery storage, and wind facilities. You'll serve as the Owner's representative on site, coordinating between EPC contractors, electrical subcontractors, utilities, and inspectors to ensure substations, transformers, switchgear, and interconnection infrastructure are installed, tested, and commissioned safely and to specification. The role combines hands-on field leadership with stakeholder management: conducting site inspections, reviewing construction methods and schedules, resolving RFIs and change orders, and driving quality and safety compliance across multiple construction disciplines.
This position suits someone with at least five years of electrical construction experience and demonstrated expertise in high-voltage systems and renewable energy projects. You'll need strong coordination skills to manage contractors and field operations on large projects, proficiency with standard office and construction software (Microsoft Office, Bluebeam, scheduling tools), and OSHA 30 certification or equivalent. An engineering or construction management degree and credentials like PMP or CMAA are valued but not required; what matters most is the ability to lead in a fast-paced environment and solve problems as they arise in the field.
