This position requires both technical expertise in SCADA, cybersecurity, network, and systems engineering principles

and experience in the design and construction of renewable power generation, as well as a client-oriented approach to

ensure that the required quality level (against applicable industry codes and standards, project technical specific

requirements, and owner’s specifications) is met while simultaneously minimizing the risks on the project schedule and

cost for our clients.

Essential Duties and Responsibilities Reasonable accommodation may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions.

The candidate will be responsible for performing design reviews following the BV typical design review process focusing

on the following objectives (including but not limited to):
