Analyst, Project Development
About Wunder
Wunder was founded with one simple vision: to address the greatest crisis of our generation by accelerating the proliferation of solar energy. Members of our team have raised hundreds of millions of dollars in private equity, developed innovative energy infrastructure solutions for the Department of Energy, and built digital products that are used and loved by millions of people. Now, we’re saving the world.
Our office is a unique hybrid of finance, engineering, design, and business development. Although our backgrounds and responsibilities vary wildly, we’re a tight-knit bunch that loves cross-pollination. And while our mission is big, we try to keep things light. We provide a happy, productive workplace, and we’re constantly improving it! You’ll find us hustling on the job while also cycling, hiking, boarding, skiing, camping, and dining all over our mile-high home; Colorado.
The Role
We have an amazing opportunity for an energetic solar development professional to solve hard problems and push renewable energy forward. Our project development team’s goal is to acquire commercial customers by leveraging Wunder’s industry-leading technology platform. Tactically, we have a number of strategies that we’ll be testing in parallel as we seek to rapidly scale this segment and maximize the value we bring to our partners.
If you get excited about unlocking the small commercial market, establishing yourself as a founding member of our internal development team designed for hyper-growth, closing million-dollar deals every week, and building an organization aimed at saving the world, then this is the role for you.
What you'll do:
Generate Leads primarily through account profiling, automated email drip campaigns, business networking, and other market penetration strategies.
Qualify opportunities, spec out systems, and develop project proposals and quotes.
Manage and lead development activities by working with internal teams and external consultants as needed. Areas may include - but are not limited to - finance, real estate, engineering and design, environment, offtake, and policy.
Prepare and submit permitting applications.
Work closely with solar partners to prioritize, coordinate, review, and track key development deliverables to achieve milestones on time and on budget.
