  • Collaborate closely with installation teams to facilitate seamless and efficient factory and onsite implementation of design
  • Engage in research and application of the latest technologies and practices in renewable energy and modular construction
  • Work with program managers and other engineering disciplines to ensure holistic integration of all systems within Samara modular units

  • Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to adapt designs to changing technological and regulatory landscapes
  • Strong communication and leadership skills, capable of driving project decisions and managing complex stakeholder relationships
  • Ability to travel to our factory in Mexico up to 25-40%.
  • What We Offer

  • Salary range of $120-160K and performance-based bonuses.
