In addition, the successful candidate will be involved in applying AI, automation, and digital design platforms to streamline grid modernization and increase design efficiency.

This is a senior leadership role with primary responsibilities in client relations, staff management, proposal development, scope creation/change, project execution, and new business capture for the team’s full book of work.
