Bloom Energy is at the forefront of the global energy transition, pioneering solutions for clean energy. They are seeking a Technical Program Manager - New Product Installations to support their Installations Organization by overseeing installation documentation, performing constructability reviews, and collaborating with engineering and field teams to ensure successful deployment.
Responsibilities:
- Conduct targeted drawing reviews for projects where constructability input provides measurable value, specifically:
- Sites greater than 5 MW
- Non‑EPC projects
- Lead quality control (QC) and value engineering (VE) reviews for high‑impact installations
- Serve as the primary reviewer for Tallgrass project drawing packages due to their scale and complexity
- Evaluate technical handover packages and provide accept/veto recommendations to support early leadership decision‑making
- Provide early‑stage constructability feedback to design teams to improve installation efficiency and reduce field rework
- Identify opportunities to reduce installation cost, simplify construction sequencing, and mitigate field risk
- Review installation‑related specifications, material selections, and vendor proposals to identify cost‑saving alternatives and ensure alignment with Bloom standards
- Evaluate alternate materials, conductor types, grounding approaches, and installation methods for technical suitability and cost impact
- Provide recommendations for specification updates that improve cost, availability, constructability, or long‑term reliability
- Partner with engineering and supply chain teams to validate alternate specifications and ensure proper follow‑through from recommendation to implementation
- Support continuous improvement of installation specifications based on lessons learned, field feedback, and vendor performance
- Manage the structure, accuracy, and ongoing updates of installation manuals across all product lines
- Oversee third‑party contractors responsible for producing installation manual revisions
- Ensure installation documentation reflects current standards, lessons learned, and field best practices
- Maintain documentation quality and consistency as Bloom introduces new product variations
- Review equipment submittals to ensure alignment with installation requirements and design intent
- Provide technical clarification and support to field teams during installation and commissioning activities
- Conduct targeted site visits (10–20% travel) to assess field conditions, resolve issues, and validate constructability assumptions
- Support issue resolution by coordinating with engineering, construction, and field operations teams
- Review and support development of MOPs associated with electrical energizations, tie-ins and commissioning
- Collaborate with construction engineering, installation design, project management, and field operations teams to ensure alignment on installation requirements
- Coordinate with drafting resources to ensure constructability requirements are accurately incorporated into construction documents
- Participate in internal and external project meetings to provide updates on drawing reviews, documentation status, and technical handover readiness
- Serve as a technical liaison between design teams and field execution teams to ensure alignment and reduce rework
Requirements:
- Strong understanding of construction sequencing, installation practices, and field execution constraints
- Ability to identify cost‑saving and risk‑reducing opportunities within design packages and specifications
- Experience reviewing construction drawings, installation documentation, or technical handover materials
- High attention to detail with the ability to drive complex tasks to completion
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to convey technical concepts clearly to diverse audiences
- Demonstrated ability to work independently in a remote environment while managing multiple priorities
- Effective collaboration skills with cross‑functional engineering and construction teams
- Background in construction, installation, field engineering, or technical documentation
- Experience supporting large‑scale infrastructure, energy, or industrial projects
- Familiarity with permitting, construction submittals, and RFI processes
- Experience coordinating with drafting or design teams on construction documentation
- Exposure to specification development, alternate material evaluation, or value‑engineering processes
