Project Manager - Appalachian Hydrogen Hub (Morgantown, WV) (Engineering)

GTI Energy is an organization dedicated to advancing the economy-wide transformation needed to deeply decarbonize energy systems while supplying the energy needed to support rising standards of living and economic growth worldwide. GTI Energy embraces a vision for integrated, low-carbon, low-cost energy systems that leverage gases, liquids, efficiency, and infrastructure to meet the urgent challenges presented by climate change and global energy access. With a team that includes some of the nation's top energy scientists, engineers, and thought leaders, we are helping deliver clean and resilient solutions to a growing world. GTI Energy partners with organizations around the globe to operationalize the ambitious aspirations required for the global energy transition.

GTI Energy is part of a team that was recently selected by the US Department of Energy Appalachian Hydrogen Hub.  The DOE's Regional Clean Hydrogen Hubs (H2Hubs) will kickstart a national network of clean hydrogen producers, consumers, and connective infrastructure while supporting the production, storage, delivery, and end-use of clean hydrogen. Funded by President Biden's Investing in America agenda, the H2Hubs will accelerate the commercial-scale deployment of clean hydrogen—helping generate clean, dispatchable power, create a new form of energy storage, and decarbonize heavy industry and transportation. Together, they will also reduce 25 million metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions from end-uses each year—an amount roughly equivalent to combined annual emissions of 5.5 million gasoline-powered cars—and create tens of thousands of good-paying jobs across the country while supporting healthier communities and strengthening America's energy security.

We are seeking a dynamic and motivated Project Manager to join our project management team. This position will work closely with the Program Manager, and will perform project management functions with a team of engineers, scientists, and partners to deliver this multi-year program.

GTI Energy offers generous benefits, competitive salaries, career advancement, and the opportunity to work in a professional R&D environment. Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions.

We are proud of what we do because our work matters. GTI Energy is working toward solving global energy challenges in transitioning to a low-carbon economy. We have a proven track record in producing innovative ideas and commercializing solutions to deliver clean and reliable energy. At GTI Energy, we deliver innovative technology solutions for safe, efficient, and responsible energy.

So, what does that mean for you? You will work in a positive and respectful work culture that fosters growth, collaboration, and opportunity. You will be supported by competitive compensation, incentives, and benefits, while enjoying purposeful work that drives improvement of delivering clean energy to the world.
