For clients

Hire people who have built sites

Storage projects slip when the wrong engineer sits on the critical path. We screen for hands-on project experience, not keyword matches.

  • Shortlists of engineers who have worked on BESS, solar or substation projects
  • Technical screening before you see a resume
  • Permanent hires in the US and international markets

For candidates

Roles that match what you know

Tell us the voltages, projects and systems you've worked on. We'll only call you about roles that fit.

  • Permanent roles with developers, EPCs and asset owners
  • Clear detail on the project, team and package up front
  • Your resume never goes to a client without your say-so
