This role sits at the intersection of business development conceptual engineering and technoeconomic analysis. You should be asystems thinkersomeone who can speak fluently with clients about how the entire plant works not just the gas turbine. You will develop conceptual plant designs evaluate multiple configurations and cost scenarios and clearly communicate tradeoffs related to performance permitting schedule and cost. Your work will directly shape project strategy and be handed off to detailed design teams once projects advance. This is a true seller/doer role: you will help originate opportunities build client trust through technical credibility and deliver real engineering value in the front end of projects. Preference is for you to be hybrid in our Long Beach Headquarters. Hybrid out of another SCS office or remote might be considered.
