Senior Engineer- Project Development

Description

As a Project Development Engineer at Ecosystem, you’ll play a key role in reshaping how energy infrastructure projects are conceived and delivered. Rather than following a conventional process, you’ll help define transformative, result-driven solutions that challenge industry norms and uncover what clients truly need. You’ll lead the early development of high-impact, capital-intensive projects; translating complex needs into innovative, technically sound solutions that drive energy efficiency, asset renewal, and cost savings. If you're motivated by complex challenges, and seeing your ideas come to life, this is where you’ll thrive!

• Undertake various technical analyses, tailoring your approach to meet client’s operational, financial, and environmental objectives
• Conduct site assessments: including site walk throughs, drawing reviews and system evaluations (HVAC, electrical, controls, ...)
• Build strong relationships with stakeholders, positioning Ecosystem as the partner of choice, recognized for our technical depth and expertise
• Work hand-in-hand with the Business Development Manager to guide projects from early-stage concept to contract, be accountable for technical insights
• Create meaningful moments with clients by partnering with the client acquisition team to craft innovative, tailored solutions - transforming long-standing challenges into opportunities through compelling strategies, presentations, and partnerships
• Initiate and lead kickoff meetings to understand full context and recommend solutions that address the root need - not just the initial request
