Centralized generation, hundred-mile transmission lines, decade-long permitting cycles. Meanwhile, demand is exploding: AI data centers, industrial electrification, remote operations that need megawatts yesterday and can't wait for utilities to catch up.\nAmerican Turbines is designing small modular gas turbines, purpose-built for distributed power generation. Machines designed from a blank sheet to be manufactured at scale, clustered in arrays. Hundreds of units operating in parallel, dynamically matching load like a compute cluster matches demand. We are a seed-stage company backed by the investors behind SpaceX, Boom Supersonic, and Hadrian.\nAbout the Role\nThe Site Engineer for our installation program will own how our first microturbine installation fits together at a site level: where the turbines are located, whether we need concrete pads poured, where the transformers go, and how the turbines line up with the electrical and pipeline connections they need.\nYou'll be based in San Francisco, but plan on stretches of weeks on-site during installation, not just the occasional trip. You will work the full chain from site plan to working installation, translating between what the turbines need, what the site has, and what has to get built to connect the two.\nThis is not a role where the plan gets handed to you finished. You will be defining that plan yourself and then making sure it holds up once equipment starts showing up on-site.\nWhat We're Looking For\nExperience with systems integration on complex industrial or power generation equipment, whatever the domain. Site planning, balance-of-plant, or similar work where you had to coordinate mechanical, electrical, and civil scope at once and make it all fit together in the real world, not just on paper.\nYou default to walking the site rather than only working from drawings. You're comfortable being the person who has to catch the conflict between two other people's plans before it becomes a problem in the field.\nCompensation\n$150,000 to $200,000 base.\nGenerous stock package.\nMedical, vision, and dental care.\n2% matching on 401(k).","description_format":"text","description_chars":2198,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":[],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-14T16:03:59Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":24,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.53,"p_room":0.45,"age_days":38,"expected_fill_days":23,"reasons":["conf:0","win:tail"],"computed_at":"2026-10-20T05:45:00Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":200000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/american-turbines-site-engineer-field-deployment","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/american-turbines-site-engineer-field-deployment.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-20T08:52:30Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":9740,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-21T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":4418371},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=4418371"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Famerican-turbines-site-engineer-field-deployment"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Famerican-turbines-site-engineer-field-deployment"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Famerican-turbines-site-engineer-field-deployment"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/american-turbines-site-engineer-field-deployment\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Famerican-turbines-site-engineer-field-deployment"}]}
