**Join the Origis Energy Team!**
Origis Energy is accelerating the transition to a carbon\-free future by Reimagining ZeroSM. As one of America's leading renewable energy and decarbonization solution platforms, the company continues to expand and reimagine its contribution to the world's net\-zero goals. Origis Energy puts customers first to deploy a wide range of sustainable solutions for grid power generation, performance optimization, and long\-term operation of solar and energy storage plants across the U.S. Founded in 2008, Origis Energy is headquartered in Miami, FL.
The Origis team,regarded as one of the leading developers in the U.S., is committed to living five core values in all interactions both with each other and external stakeholders:
**Solve for Tomorrow.** A role with Origis Energy puts you at the forefront of the transition to clean energy. Are you ready to bring new ideas? Do you exist to find solutions? That's how we revolutionize energy and build a carbon\-free future \- through unmatched service and relentless innovation.
**Rise Together.** To succeed here, you'll collaborate with others and work as one team, across various teams includingsolar and energy storage development, financing, engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) and operations, maintenance and asset management. Are you open to diverse perspectives and prepared to work seamlessly across disciplines to reach our collective goals?
**Perform at Peak.** We're seeking team members who bring authentic energy and passion to every task. How can you use your natural strengths, genuine optimism and intelligence to make your greatest contributions to Origis?
**Inspire \& Grow.** The Origis team is comprised of knowledgeable, passionate solar and energy storage experts who bring deep expertise and solution\-driven thinking to clients. A successful Origis team member encourages others and sets a high bar for growth. We have a culture of continuous improvement because each team member takes the role of both learner and mentor.
**Be Resilient.** The spirit in which we tackle the energy challenges and objectives of our clients means we consistently stretch for the extra mile. We all take initiative and remain adaptable, overcoming obstacles by prioritizing respect.
**Position Description**
The **Design Engineer** role, reporting to the Senior Director of Engineering and working closely with Civil and Electrical Engineering partners, supports the site evaluation, layout design, and development of utility‑scale solar PV and Storage projects across Origis Energy's portfolio.
This position supports early through mid‑stage project development, focusing on translating civil site constraints into constructible, efficient electrical layouts at a conceptual and preliminary level. Duties may also extend to include miscellaneous support during 30/60/90/IFC design and later construction and O\&M if and when the development of internal exhibits or the review of processing of CAD drawings is needed.
This position may be filled as Design Engineer I or Design Engineer II based on candidate experience and demonstrated capability. This role is a regular, full‑time position and is eligible for Origis Energy's comprehensive benefits package, including employer‑paid health insurance, paid time off, 401(k) with employer matching contributions, and additional benefits.
**Key Responsibilities**
*Site Review \& Due Diligence Support*
* *Support project development through desktop site reviews, site visits, and review of third‑party reports including ALTA surveys, environmental studies, geotechnical reports, and floodplain documentation.*
* *Identify and interpret site constraints such as wetlands and waterways, flood zones, topography, setbacks, easements, underground utilities, pipelines, and other environmental or jurisdictional limitations.*
* *Translate due diligence findings into clearly defined developable areas and design assumptions.*
*Conceptual \& Preliminary Site Layout Design*
* *Develop and maintain conceptual and preliminary site layouts for utility‑scale solar PV Storage projects using AutoCAD and related tools.*
* *Incorporate civil constraints, access requirements, and constructability considerations into array layouts, equipment placement, and infrastructure corridors.*
* *Support layout iterations for alternative site configurations, technology options, or development scenarios as projects mature.*
*Electrical Layout Coordination*
* *Support layout‑level electrical system configuration, including:*
* + *Inverter and power block placement*
+ *DC and MV collection routing corridors*
+ *Coordination of trenching, access roads, and grading interfaces*
* *Develop preliminary electrical single line diagrams (SLDs) to support needs of Origination, Development and EPC teams.*
* *Apply value‑engineering principles to balance civil constraints, electrical infrastructure, constructability, and project e
