Project Overview :

Bechtel Enterprises  is the project development, investment, and financing arm of Bechtel.

Bechtel’s Clean Energy Business

Bechtel has played a pivotal role in clean energy for decades, delivering more than 100,000MW of nuclear and hydro generation capacity globally, as well as landmark renewable energy projects such as Ivanpah Solar and California Valley Solar Ranch.  Today, the foundation of our clean energy strategy is developing and building “core renewables” projects (solar PV, wind, and solar battery storage), in addition to advancing work in nuclear, hydro and newer technologies (clean hydrogen, carbon capture, long duration storage).

CleanGen, Inc., Bechtel’s Clean Energy Development Company

To drive Bechtel’s clean energy strategy, in 2020 we formed CleanGen, Inc.  CleanGen is Bechtel’s wholly owned clean energy development platform which is part of Bechtel Enterprises.  CleanGen is currently focused on developing greenfield utility-scale solar, onshore wind, and hybrid projects in the U.S., with medium-term goals to expand internationally.  By combining the development expertise of CleanGen with Bechtel’s EPC capabilities, our mission is to efficiently create (i.e. develop, engineer, construct) high quality new clean energy assets for electricity buyers and owner / operators around the world.

Job Summary :

Joining the CleanGen team as an Associate Development Manager is an opportunity to be an important member of a lean but fast-growing team that is working on a strategic and highly visible new business venture within a well-funded corporation.  We are looking for a talented and energetic individual to support utility-scale solar, onshore wind, and hybrid project development across the US.

The position will be responsible for supporting the full suite of development activities for existing projects in the CleanGen portfolio and new projects (new greenfield sites and acquisition targets).  This will include site identification and site control, interconnection and transmission work, project permitting, and community engagement.  The position will work closely with our internal power marketing / origination, project finance, legal, and engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) teams as the position’s assigned projects advance through a final notice to proceed to construction.

This position is designated as part-time telework (hybrid) per our global telework policy and may require at least three days of in-person attendance per week at the assigned office or project. Weekly in-person schedules will be determined by the individual and their supervisor, in consultation with functional or project leadership. #LI-HB1 #LI-Hybrid
