Our Values

Six core values guide how we work: commitments we make to each other. Our pace is set by a simple conviction: imperfect action beats perfect inaction, so we move with purpose, adapt without ego, and measure ourselves by progress rather than activity. Ownership travels with autonomy. Your name is on the work, and the best answer wins the conversation, wherever it lives. That candor works because of what surrounds it: people who show up with intention and have each other's back, tough on ideas and generous with people. Our customers feel this as reliability earned daily, every interaction treated as a chance to build something lasting. And underneath it all is why the work matters. The climate doesn't wait, and the stakes are also human: behind every checklist and every inspection is a person going home safely. We call it "This work has a heartbeat” — it's what the other five rest on.

Role Description

One of Terawatt's Core Values is “Electrify the Customer.” Terawatt is seeking a Field Electrical Engineer with strong working knowledge of primary and secondary electrical systems to serve as the field technical lead for construction, commissioning, energization, and ongoing operation of its EV charging sites across North America. This is an experienced professional role: you’ll work from limited information and precedent, adapt established approaches to novel field conditions, and develop engineering solutions with review from senior engineering leadership at key milestones.

In this role, you will independently evaluate field inspections against design intent, exercise engineering judgment to resolve discrepancies and non-conformances that do not have a predefined answer, and make real-time technical decisions with contractors, utility engineers, and Authorities Having Jurisdiction (AHJs), escalating high stakes or precedent setting calls to senior engineers You will assess incomplete or ambiguous field information, apply analytical techniques to identify root cause, and adapt commissioning and energization approaches site to site rather than following a fixed checklist. You will also advise senior engineering, Construction & Development, and Operations stakeholders.

You will work closely with the Head of Hardware & Electrical Systems and associated engineers while exercising independent professional judgment and partnering cross-functionally with Construction, Development, Energy, and Operations (Field Service team).
