Your mission

- Own the environmental workstream of TURN2X's e-Methane and green hydrogen projects across Spain - screening sites and routings before we commit to land, defining the permitting strategy region by region, and bringing every project to Ready-to-Build (RTB) in the shortest possible time, with environmental risks identified and mitigated early.
- Do it as an AI-native engineer: use AI and GIS automation to compress weeks of screening and drafting into days/hours, and build the reusable workflows that let the whole development team move at that speed.

Your Responsibilities

- Run early-stage environmental and territorial screenings of sites and routings (QGIS / Glint Solar based), enabling clear go/no-go decisions before land securing.
- Automate what repeats: build AI- and GIS-supported workflows for environmental pre-screening - flooding, fauna, flora, protected areas, seismic risk, traffic - and turn them into tools the team can run without you.
- Define and own the permitting strategy for each autonomous community, with a documented environmental Gantt of milestones, risks and mitigations per project.
- Challenge our environmental consultants on quality, scope and cost - compensatory measures, the environmental logic behind siting and routing, and the substance of every study and annex before we accept it.
- Keep our documentation lean: define the level of detail permitting genuinely requires and strip out everything that does not move the project forward, starting at Basis of Design (BoD) stage.
- Identify permitting risks early and design the mitigations,



including how the project layout affects the licencia urbanística.
- Work hand in hand with our Project Development Managers and with the central technical team in Munich, running several projects in parallel across different regions.

Your profile

- Solid knowledge of Spanish environmental and permitting frameworks (EIA, ideally also AAI for industrial facilities), permitting an industrial plant is a different game from a standard RES project, and you know the difference.
- Experience across several autonomous communities, each with its own regulatory particularities.
- AI-native by default, and critical about it. You already work with AI tools daily, for drafting, research, analysis and screening, you verify every output against primary sources, and you build reusable workflows and agents instead of one-off prompts. You use AI to go faster, never as a substitute for technical judgement: the rigour of the analysis is the part that cannot be automated away.
- Functional command of QGIS and CAD for routings and constraint analyses, and the ability to produce simple, clear drawings and plans for landowners and public administrations.




- Practical experience with environmental measures during construction and with monitoring plans (PVA), not at expert level, but enough to know what the commitments we accept at permitting stage really cost later.
- Proven ability to critically review consultants' deliverables and push back on quality, scope and cost.
- Strong communication skills with authorities, landowners and consultants.
- Structured and autonomous way of working: you prioritise across parallel project streams and report progress clearly.
- Fluent Spanish and professional English.
- Bonus: permitting experience with PtX, hydrogen, biogas or biomethane facilities; scripting and automation of GIS workflows; and comfort in fast-paced, early-stage environments where processes are still being built.
