About Greenlink Energy Solutions
Greenlink Energy Solutions builds commercial clean energy systems that perform in the real world.
We are not simply a contractor. We serve as developer, integrator, and long-term performance partner—designing solar, storage, HVAC, envelope, and energy optimization systems that reduce risk, protect margins, and increase asset value.
As we scale, we are building a disciplined, repeatable commercial platform. That platform runs through one team: The Technical Solutions Team (TST).
TST is the technical brain of Greenlink.
The Role
We are hiring a Senior Director – Energy Systems & Commercial Engineering to lead our Technical Solutions Team (TST) to lead the engineering, modeling, pricing integrity, and workflow systems that power our commercial growth engine.
This is not a drafting role.
This is not a pure sales engineering role.
This is a senior technical leadership position responsible for:
Design authority
Pricing integrity
Technical standards
Value stack optimization
Proposal control
Workflow ownership between Sales → TST → Operations
You will sit directly between revenue and production—and own the technical accountability layer that ensures projects are bankable, buildable, and profitable.
This role reports to executive leadership and serves as the final technical checkpoint before projects move forward.
What TST Is Responsible For:
As defined in our charter, TST exists to:
Design systems that work in the real world
Maximize customer value and margin
Enable Sales to win and Ops to build without chaos
This role leads that mission.
What You’ll Own:
Serve as senior authority on C&I solar, storage, HVAC, and integrated systems
Validate production modeling assumptions (Helioscope, ETB, Aurora as applicable)
Own system feasibility and technical risk identification
Ensure designs are constructible and aligned with downstream engineering
Provide build-ready technical packages prior to Ops handoff
You will have decision rights on technical design and product selection (with executive escalation only for major strategic shifts).
TST is ultimately responsible for pricing and proposal integrity You will:
Own technical assumptions embedded in pricing models
Partner closely with Finance on CA tool logic and margin frameworks
Identify margin erosion risks early
Standardize cost assumptions and product catalog logic
Improve version control and pricing discipline
If a project is mis-scoped or mis-priced, this role owns fixing the system—not just the job.
Every commercial opportunity must be evaluated across the full energy stack:
Solar
Storage
HVAC
Envelope
Controls
Demand management
Incentives and program layering
TST is responsible for ensuring that proposals reflect the optimal technical value stack—not just what the customer initially asks for.
You will guide Sales in translating customer goals into engineered solutions.
TST operates on defined SLAs for proposal turnaround
You will:
Enforce intake standards before SLA clock begins
Improve Monday board hygiene and workflow clarity
Establish repeatable design → pricing → proposal sequences
Reduce cycle time without sacrificing rigor
Build documentation standards for AI knowledge capture
This is a systems leadership role as much as an engineering role.
You will evaluate and refine:
Helioscope modeling workflows
Energy Toolbase (ETB) processes
Central CA/pricing tools
CRM-to-design integrations
AI knowledge base inputs
We operate as an AI-first organization. Workflow clarity and documentation discipline are non-negotiable.
What We’re Looking For
Required Experience
6+ years in commercial solar, storage, or integrated energy systems
Deep C&I solar PV design and modeling experience
Strong understanding of storage sizing, demand charges, and rate structures
Experience reviewing or building pricing models for commercial projects
Proven ability to lead engineers or technical teams
Comfort interfacing directly with Sales leadership and executive stakeholders
Strongly Preferred
Experience integrating solar + storage + HVAC solutions
Familiarity with utility incentive programs and compliance constraints
Background in energy modeling tools (Helioscope, ETB, Aurora, etc.)
Systems thinker who has improved internal processes before
Experience building standardized product catalogs or design standards
Understanding of how pricing assumptions impact financing and ITC outcomes
Who Will Thrive in This Role
You will thrive here if you:
Think like an engineer and an operator
Care deeply about accuracy and defensibility
Get frustrated by sloppy workflows
Want ownership—not just tasks
Can push back on Sales when needed (with data and clarity)
Enjoy building systems that scale
Want to shape a growing clean energy platform
You will not thrive here if:
You prefer to stay narrowly within design
You avoid accountability for financial outcomes
You dislike cross-functional tension
You need fully mature systems before contributing
Compensation & Benefits
Salary: $110,000 – $140,000 (based on experience) Performance bonus structure tied to margin protection and SLA performance
Benefits:
Health, dental, vision, life insurance
PTO
401(k) eligibility
Company-provided technology
Leadership growth track
Why This Role Matters
TST is not a support team.TST is the leverage point of the company.
When TST performs:
Sales wins better deals
Margins improve
Ops builds cleanly
Rework declines
Institutional knowledge compounds
You will help define how Greenlink designs, prices, and delivers commercial clean energy for the next decade.
