• Provide both external and internal consultations
• Help Honeywell teams develop and maintain the right product messaging, customer support, and training
• Foster cross-functional alignment to customer needs
• Participate in pursuit strategy planning, and customer negotiations

Requirements

• Develop detailed energy cost savings, tariff optimization, and resiliency valuation models for distributed energy resource (DER) solutions, including solar, BESS, and CHP systems
• Lead and coordinate the engineering design process across all project phases, from feasibility and conceptual design through permitting and construction documentation, including due diligence, design optimization, and review of shop drawings from the Engineer of Record and service providers
• Design end-to-end microgrid architectures and produce comprehensive Scopes of Work (SOWs), incorporating protection schemes, controls, and utility interconnection requirements
• Utilize industry-standard modeling platforms (e.g., HOMER, Xendee) to perform techno-economic optimization of microgrid systems and DER portfolios
• Engineer and implement advanced strategies for peak shaving, load shifting, demand response, and supply/demand orchestration to optimize operational performance and reduce demand charges
• Evaluate and optimize DER asset portfolios based on site-specific constraints, including load profiles, space limitations, interconnection capacity, and financial return thresholds
• Conduct site visits and participate in customer meetings to support project development and ensure alignment with technical and operational requirements
• Collaborate directly with customers to define resiliency objectives, including critical load identification, outage scenarios, and backup duration requirements
• Plan and execute engineering activities for RFPs, including technical package preparation, bid evaluation, and support for contract negotiations
• Analyze energy market trends, regulatory frameworks, and incentive structures (e.g., IRA tax credits, state programs) to inform project economics and investment strategy
• Deliver technical presentations and client-facing briefings on grid-edge technologies, clearly articulating system design, economics, and operational value
• Ensure completeness and accuracy of technical documentation for external stakeholders
• Support commercial teams by translating technical solutions into clear value propositions aligned with energy security, cost reduction, and ESG objectives
• Review and validate technical proposals and engineering designs, ensuring accuracy in electrical configurations, control systems, and integration with existing infrastructure
• Develop and deliver training programs on microgrid fundamentals, DER integration, and utility interconnection processes for internal and external stakeholders
• Coverage of cross-functional engineering support for high-priority project pursuits, including feasibility studies, bid development, and client deliverables
• Mentor junior engineers in power systems analysis, energy modeling, and DER optimization methodologies

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field with a focus on power systems or energy systems
• 5–7 years of experience in distributed energy resources (DER), microgrids, and energy solutions development
• 5–7 years of working knowledge of power systems, including electrical distribution, DER integration (solar, BESS, CHP), and commercial & industrial energy infrastructure
• Professional Engineering license (P.E./P.Eng.) preferred, with experience in power system design, interconnection, or grid-edge technologies
