Job Description
Euclid: Where Projects Take Shape
Reporting to the Utility-Scale Solutions leadership team, the Development Program Manager will serve as the Deal Lead for Euclid’s utility-scale development engagements. In this role, you will own the Pre-NTP engagement strategy, commercial positioning, and executive-level client communication.
Historically, Euclid’s founders have led these engagements directly. As demand for our utility-scale work accelerates, we are investing in a dedicated leader who can drive the development process in a scalable, repeatable way while maintaining the high bar our clients expect.
This is a senior, client-facing role for a development professional who has led utility-scale renewable energy projects end-to-end and is excited to combine strategic leadership, commercial acumen, and execution oversight to shape complex engagements from origination through NTP.
Who We Are
At Euclid, we’re on a mission to accelerate the world’s transition to renewable energy so that we can decarbonize the planet as fast as possible. We empower renewable energy teams to accomplish in days what typically takes weeks.
We care about doing meaningful work, delivering real value and results to our customers. We’re passionate about solving real problems by focusing on what truly matters. We’re passionate about our work, and we’re building products and services that our customers genuinely love and trust. We’re not afraid to think big and be bold, as we’re building not only a future we believe in but a workplace culture that we’re proud to be a part of.
What You’ll Do
- Serve as Deal Lead for utility-scale development engagements, owning overall engagement strategy, commercial positioning, and client communication from origination through NTP.
- Guide clients through the full development lifecycle, including ability to discuss capital stack and financial structuring at a high level, EPC strategy, execution planning, commissioning, and long-term opex considerations.
- Lead executive-level client discussions, acting as a trusted advisor to C-suite and senior stakeholders.
- Partner with Sales to support pursuits, including scope definition, proposal development, and commercial strategy.
- Delegate and oversee execution workstreams across internal team members, ensuring clarity of ownership, high-quality deliverables, and on-time performance.
- Collaborate closely with technical and financial leaders to ensure development scopes are technically sound, financially rigorous, and aligned with client objectives.
- Drive clean handoffs into EPC and Asset Management phases, ensuring continuity, documentation, and alignment across teams.
- Contribute to the evolution of Euclid’s utility-scale development offering, helping define repeatable processes, mentor team members, and strengthen execution standards.
Who You Are
- Deep experience in utility-scale renewable energy development, with a track record of leading projects from origination through NTP.
- Strong commercial and financial acumen, including familiarity with capex modeling, financing structures, and EPC strategy. Deep understanding of project pro-formas. You don’t just “use” models; you can explain how a 5% shift in EPC capex or a change in interest rates ripples through the flip structure to affect the sponsor’s bottom line.
- Demonstrated ability to operate as an executive-facing engagement leader, you are comfortable leading C-suite conversations and navigating complex stakeholder environments.
- Demonstrated fluency in the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) and its impact on utility-scale solar and BESS deployment.
- Proven ability to present complex technical risks (interconnection delays, supply chain volatility) to an investment committee or C-suite in terms of “dollars at risk” and “mitigation costs.”
- Proven ability to own outcomes, not just tasks, you think strategically about engagement success rather than defaulting to project management mechanics.
- Strong cross-functional leadership skills, with experience coordinating development, transmission & distribution, engineering, construction, and commercial teams.
- Ability to balance business development support with execution leadership.
- Bachelor’s degree required (or equivalent professional experience).
Nice to have:
- Background with a developer, IPP, investor, or infrastructure fund.
- Experience with energy storage in addition to utility-scale solar.
- Experience scaling or standardizing development programs across multiple projects or markets.
- Exposure to complex, multi-asset portfolios.
