Description

Description We are ERock! ERock is a leader and innovator in distributed energy. ERock has responded to long-term trends in electricity by becoming the first smart-grid supplier to US energy consumers. The company installs, operates, and integrates its highly flexible, low-cost, and quick-response distributed generation to increase reliability and stability, reduce costs and decrease carbon footprint. At ERock, our backup generators ensure that customers will never be without power, allowing their business to operate normally when there is an outage in the area. Our innovative approach provides customers with highly reliable, ultra-clean backup generation at a fraction of the cost of traditional backup solutions. We seek those who share our commitment to customer service, innovation, and ingenuity. Role Overview: The Solutions Engineer serves as the technical lead for customer-facing power generation and microgrid solutions, owning system architecture, technical scope, and solution development from early customer engagement through project handoff. This role combines strong electrical engineering fundamentals with customer consultation, technical leadership, and business strategy. Solutions Engineers work directly with customers to understand operational challenges, develop practical solutions, and communicate complex power system concepts in a clear and actionable way. This is not a traditional design engineering role focused primarily on calculations, drafting, or detailed design packages. Instead, Solutions Engineers serve as trusted technical advisors, balancing reliability, performance, constructability, schedule, and commercial objectives to deliver executable solutions. We're looking for engineers who enjoy leading technical discussions, solving complex problems, and serving as the technical leader in the room. What We're Really Looking For: We're seeking engineers who thrive at the intersection of technology, customer engagement, and problem solving. The ideal candidate is someone who naturally steps into technical discussions, can simplify complex electrical and power system concepts, and builds confidence with customers through practical solutions and sound engineering judgment. Success in this role requires: Strong communication and presentation skills. Confidence leading technical discussions with customers, utilities, EPC partners, executives, and internal teams. A systems-thinking mindset that balances technical performance, reliability, schedule, constructability, and commercial objectives. Ownership of technical decisions and solution strategy. The ability to evaluate challenges quickly, develop practical recommendations, and build customer trust. This role is ideal for engineers who want to grow as technical leaders, trusted advisors, and customer-facing solution experts. Key Responsibilities: Lead development of microgrid and distributed generation solutions for customer proposals, including system architecture, equipment sizing, and technical scope. Develop electrical system designs, including single-line diagrams, layouts, and medium/low voltage system configurations. Perform and support power system evaluations (load, capacity, reliability) to inform design decisions. Serve as the primary technical interface with customers, leading discussions, whiteboarding sessions, and presentations. Collaborate cross-functionally with engineering, EPC, R&D, and product teams to develop optimized, executable solutions. Prepare and communicate technical content for proposals, including drawings, narratives, and supporting documentation. Evaluate design tradeoffs across cost, performance, constructability, and schedule. Participate in site visits and customer engagements to validate design assumptions. Conduct peer reviews to ensure quality and consistency of technical designs and estimates Requirements Required Qualifications & Experience: Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Electrical Engineering Technology, or related field. Strong knowledge of low-voltage and medium-voltage power systems, generation systems, and electrical distribution. Experience developing and interpreting electrical system diagrams, including single-line diagrams and power system layouts. Ability to evaluate technical challenges from a systems perspective and translate requirements into practical engineering solutions. Strong analytical and problem-solving capabilities. Excellent verbal and written communication skills. Ability to effectively engage both technical and non-technical audiences. Ability to work collaboratively across multiple disciplines and functions. Physical requirements and working conditions: Must possess mobility to work in a standard office setting and to use standard office equipment, including a computer, stamina to maintain attention to detail despite interruptions, strength to lift and carry files weighing up to 20 pounds; vision to read printed materials and a computer screen, and hearing and speech to communicate in person and over the telephone/computer. Preferred Qualifications: 4+ years (preferred) of experience in power systems, distributed generation, microgrids, or related fields. Experience with power system studies such as load flow, short circuit, or reliability analysis. Familiarity with power system modeling tools (e.g., ETAP, PSCAD, PSS/E, MATLAB/Simulink). Experience with electrical equipment design and layout, including switchgear and interconnection systems. Understanding of protection schemes, relaying concepts, and system coordination. Proficiency with AutoCAD or similar design tools. Experience supporting technical proposals, bids, or customer-facing engineering efforts. Familiarity with RFP processes and working within defined commercial and technical constraints. Exposure to utility interconnection, distributed energy resources (DER), or grid services. What Sets This Role Apart: Direct customer engagement and ownership of technical solutions – not just back-end design. Work on mission-critical infrastructure with real-world impact on customers and the grid. Exposure to the full lifecycle: concept – proposal – execution. Highly collaborative environment with access to cross-functional technical teams. Opportunity to develop both deep technical expertise and strong commercial/strategic engineering skills. Exposure to large-scale, real-world energy infrastructure projects. Career growth across engineering, commercial, and technical leadership paths. Collaborative, engineering-driven culture with high visibility and impact.
