SOLV Energy is a leading provider of infrastructure services to the power industry, designing, building and maintaining utility scale solar, battery storage and high voltage substation projects nationwide. This role is fully remote; specific location details and expectations will be discussed during the interview process.

About the role

The Project Controls Scheduler will develop and maintain integrated EPC schedules on a portfolio of PV solar projects to ensure timely and profitable job completion. This position requires travel to jobsites in the region to lead schedule development and maintenance. Depending on workload, the scheduler may support projects in other regions and will collaborate with business units such as battery storage, high voltage, and business development.

Responsibilities

• Use P6 software to develop and maintain EPC project schedules based on realistic execution plans.
• Assist in project planning by analyzing project documents, design drawings, contracts, and exhibits to understand specific requirements for the EPC schedule.
• Perform basic quantity take-offs to establish accurate activity durations and maintain working files (e.g., Excel trackers, weather data, PPA agreements).
• Consult with internal groups (engineering, procurement, project managers, field management) and external stakeholders (owners, 3rd party consultants) to gather feedback and improve schedule accuracy.
• Ensure schedules incorporate sound logic, realistic durations, and CPM best practices.
• Attend project meetings (pre-construction, coordination, monthly owner meetings) to address schedule-related challenges and updates.
• Update schedules at least twice monthly to incorporate actuals, monitor critical path deviations, and suggest corrective actions.
• Communicate schedule updates to the project team and senior scheduler; maintain reports in Teams and SharePoint.
• Maintain a company-standard delay log documenting delays from business development to project completion.
• Record weather delays in P6 and compare to NOAA normal weather data monthly.
• Perform schedule analysis for what-if conditions, change orders, and claims.
• Train field personnel in scheduling procedures and assist project engineers/assistant project managers in maintaining and analyzing schedules.
• Visit jobsites as needed to support scheduling activities.
• Prepare “as-built” schedules reflecting actual conditions and activity dates.
• Maintain the SOLV P6 database with accurate project/activity codes, file management, status/delay comments, and P6 notebooks.
• Support reporting efforts while preserving core schedule structure and activity codes.
• Perform additional initiatives or responsibilities assigned by the senior scheduler.
