Senior PV Engineer

Galileo is a fast -growing renewable energy IPP, investor and operator, currently in the very dynamic start -up phase. Since our foundation in 2020, we have secured a pipeline of over 16 GW of solar PV, onshore wind, offshore wind and storage projects across 10 markets in Europe. 

What you’ll
do: 

• Provide the engineering expertise needed to
  guide and support development, construction, operations, and
  financing/divestment of solar PV projects across various European countries
  (primarily in Italy).
  
• Conduct site assessments, feasibility
  studies, preliminary layout design and optimization, and risk analyses
  throughout the project lifecycle to support project development and execution;
  monitor project progress, identifying potential issues and developing
  mitigation strategies.
  
• Focus on post -permitting activities:
  
• provide technical input during
  pre -construction planning and risk assessment; support or lead technical site
  assessments and constructability reviews;
  
• provide technical support to procurement,
  including specifications and scope of work documents for EPC tender processes,
  bid evaluation, contract negotiation, and equipment recommendations and

• review and validate executive engineering
  design to ensure alignment with project goals, grid codes, and permitting
  conditions; conduct gap analyses between permitting documentation and
  construction -level design;
  
• collaborate with project director and
  construction team to support the development of detailed construction plans and
  schedules;

• in collaboration with the HSE manager,
  ensure the application of HSE best -practice during design and construction
  stages;
  
• if necessary, support stakeholder
  communications, including utilities, grid operators, and regulatory bodies.

  of the company's objectives is to develop hybrid projects, being able to apply
  the above also to BESS projects would be highly valued.
