- Provide technical and procedural support to project managers throughout the development lifecycle.
- Manage post-interconnection agreement activities including QSA execution, full market registration, energization planning, and COD coordination.
- Collaborate closely with internal stakeholders in Houston and the international development team in Madrid, ensuring effective communication and alignment.
