Your mission As a PV Technical Project Engineer you will support the construction of utility-scale Solar PV projects across Italy, Germany and other European countries. The role will act as an owner-side technical support function within the Project Delivery team and will focus on constructability review, civil and mechanical execution support, technical coordination, and EPC oversight throughout the lifecycle of utility-scale PV projects from RtB to COD. This is not a pure design engineering role and not a site management position.

Instead, the position is intended for a technically strong and practically minded engineer with broad exposure to the construction of large-scale solar PV projects and a strong understanding of how engineering decisions translate into construction execution. The successful candidate will work closely with Project Managers, EPC contractors, external consultants, and engineering teams to support technically sound and practically executable project delivery across multiple countries and project environments. The role is ideally suited for candidates with a background in civil or mechanical engineering who combine consulting or technical advisory experience with hands-on EPC or construction execution exposure within the utility-scale solar PV sector.

Act as an owner-side technical counterpart to EPC contractors and technical advisors during project construction. Support multiple projects and PM teams simultaneously across different European markets.

Participate in technical coordination during development handover, pre-construction, construction, commissioning, and handover phases. access roads and cable trenching layouts; installation and connection concepts for inverters,



transformer stations and BESS systems. Identify technical risks, constructability concerns, and execution challenges at an early stage. Review geotechnical reports, pile testing results, and foundation-related technical documentation.

Support evaluation of alternative technical solutions and value engineering proposals where appropriate. Construction & EPC Support Participate in periodic site visits and support critical construction phases on site where required. Support resolution of technical and execution-related issues during construction.

Participate in EPC coordination meetings, technical workshops, commissioning meetings, and handover inspections. Support technical interface coordination between EPC contractors, suppliers, consultants, and internal stakeholders. Escalate critical technical concerns and execution risks to the Project Delivery team where required.

Support continuous improvement, lessons learned, and standardisation initiatives within the Project Delivery function. Minimum of 6 years of experience within the utility-scale solar PV sector. technical/engineering advisory or consultant environments; EPC, construction execution, or owner-side project delivery environments.



Proven experience in technical support, engineering review, or constructability-related functions during the construction of utility-scale PV projects.

Experience working on utility-scale solar PV projects of at least 20 MWp, ideally 50 MWp.

Experience working with international EPC contractors and multicultural project teams.

Experience with owner's engineer, technical advisor, or independent engineering functions (Strong advantage). Exposure to projects in Germany and/or Italy.

Experience with BESS installation or hybrid PV+BESS projects. Strong understanding of civil and mechanical installation aspects of utility-scale PV construction. Electrical installation experience a plus. cable routing and construction constraints; basic electrical and electromechanical construction interfaces, including cable terminations, inverter and transformer installation/interfaces, and integration aspects of BESS systems Ability to review and interpret technical drawings and engineering documentation.

PV electrical design or yield modelling experience is not required for this role. Degree in Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Construction Engineering, or a comparable technical discipline.

Background combining technical engineering/advisory exposure with practical construction or EPC execution experience strongly preferred.
