Title: Manager – Energy Markets & Utility Planning
Location & Travel: This position is based in Reston, VA (hybrid) or U.S. remote. Travel is expected for client meetings and select industry events.
Join our team as a Manager supporting high-impact work in U.S. power markets, utility planning, and regulatory strategy. We are looking for a strong industry professional with experience at a utility or in consulting who can lead projects and teams in applying long-term planning tools (e.g., capacity expansion and production cost models) to help clients solve business challenges related to resource strategy, transmission, market exposure, and utility investment decisions. This individual should bring a thoughtful point of view on industry issues, communicate clearly with clients and stakeholders, and help grow our work through strong delivery, leadership, market insight, and external engagement.
Key Responsibilities
- Business development & client relationships: Help grow client relationships by identifying opportunities, contributing to proposals and scopes of work, and building credibility through strong delivery, sound judgment, and a practical understanding of utility business needs.
- Thought leadership: Develop and contribute to external-facing content and industry conversations through conference participation, articles, workshops, webinars, and other activities that demonstrate a clear point of view on utility economics, market design, implementation challenges, and related power market issues.
- Client delivery & advisory: Lead client-facing projects that connect long-term planning and market analysis to utility decisions, including resource strategy, procurement, market exposure, and investment choices across generation, transmission, and demand-side resources. Work with clients and internal teams to frame business problems, guide analytical approaches, and develop practical recommendations that reflect both market realities and implementation constraints.
- Technical translation: Apply and interpret long-term planning tools and production cost models, help shape scenarios and assumptions, and translate complex analytical results into clear recommendations for planning, regulatory, and business audiences.
- Team leadership: Lead and mentor junior staff, support day-to-day direction of project teams, and contribute to high-quality deliverables, while continuing to deepen technical, market, and client leadership skills.
Required Qualifications & Experience
- Bachelor’s degree in energy systems, engineering, economics, or a related field; graduate degree is a plus but not required provided relevant experience exists.
- 10+ years of experience in power markets, utility planning, or energy consulting.
- Prior utility or consulting experience applying long-term planning tools and production cost models to power system planning questions is required.
- Demonstrated ability to lead work for utilities and other power sector clients on planning, market, or regulatory questions, with comfort engaging both technical and management-level audiences.
- Demonstrated ability to help grow client relationships, contribute to proposals and other market-facing activities, and pair strong client delivery with sound commercial instincts in a fast-paced consulting environment.
- Demonstrated ability to lead project tasks or workstreams, coordinate with cross-functional teams, and support the development of more junior staff.
- Experience with integrated system planning and utility resource decision-making is a plus.
- Experience using and interpreting long-term planning, production cost, and related market modeling approaches to support strategic decision-making.
Preferred Qualifications and Experience
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to turn complex analyses into clear and compelling client narratives.

Verify your role qualifies as specialty occupation
Energy titles like petroleum engineer, power systems analyst, and grid operations specialist clearly require a bachelor's degree in a specific technical field. Review the O*NET occupation profile for your exact role before applying to confirm the specialty occupation threshold is met.
Search verified H-1B1 sponsorship history on Migrate Mate
Filter by energy sector and Singaporean nationality on Migrate Mate to see which employers have active H-1B1 visa LCA filings. DOL Labor Condition Application records show real sponsorship patterns, not just job postings that may never materialize into visa support.
Target employers already familiar with H-1B1 Singapore filings
Many energy companies default to H-1B visa processes they know. Prioritize firms with upstream, midstream, or renewables operations that have previously filed LCAs for Singaporean nationals, since those HR teams won't need to build a new process from scratch for your offer.
Request the LCA before your consulate appointment date
Your employer must file and receive DOL certification for the Labor Condition Application before you can attend the consulate interview. Build at least three weeks of LCA processing time into your offer negotiation timeline so your appointment isn't delayed by a filing that started too late.
Check prevailing wage requirements using OFLC Wage Search
Your offered salary must meet the DOL prevailing wage for your specific energy role and work location. Use the OFLC Wage Search tool to look up the wage level before finalizing your offer, since a non-compliant salary triggers LCA rejection regardless of employer intent.
Prepare credentials showing a directly related degree field
Consular officers scrutinize whether your Singaporean degree maps directly to your energy role. A petroleum engineering degree for a reservoir analysis position is straightforward. A general engineering degree for a specialized renewables role may require a credential evaluation letter explaining the field connection.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which energy roles qualify for H-1B1 Singapore visa sponsorship?
Roles that require at least a bachelor's degree in a directly related technical field qualify as specialty occupations. This covers petroleum engineers, electrical power systems engineers, renewable energy analysts, environmental engineers, and grid reliability specialists. General project management or field technician roles without a specific degree requirement typically don't meet the specialty occupation standard for H-1B1 visa purposes.
How does the H-1B1 Singapore visa compare to H-1B for energy professionals?
The H-1B1 Singapore visa has no lottery and no USCIS petition, so your employer doesn't face the April registration gamble that eliminates most H-1B candidates before interviews even begin. The annual cap of 5,400 visas for Singaporeans has never been exhausted. The trade-off is that H-1B1 doesn't permit dual intent, so it's a nonimmigrant-only path unless you separately pursue an immigrant visa route.
How do I find energy employers who will sponsor an H-1B1 Singapore visa?
Migrate Mate lets you filter job listings by H-1B1 visa sponsorship history using DOL Labor Condition Application data, so you can identify energy companies that have actually filed for Singaporean nationals rather than guessing from job postings. Focus on employers in sectors like oil and gas, utilities, and clean energy development, where specialty occupation filings are most common.
Can my employer file the H-1B1 LCA at the same time as my job offer?
Yes, and that timing is standard. The DOL Labor Condition Application is your employer's filing, not yours, and certification typically takes around seven business days. Your employer can initiate it immediately after your offer is accepted. You can't schedule your consulate interview for an H-1B1 visa until the LCA is certified, so early filing avoids the most common bottleneck in the process.
Does my Singaporean engineering credential transfer directly to U.S. energy roles?
Your degree is evaluated for equivalency to a U.S. bachelor's degree in the same or a closely related field. A four-year degree from a Singapore university in chemical, electrical, or mechanical engineering is generally accepted without additional evaluation. If your degree title is non-standard or your specialization is unconventional for the role, a formal credential evaluation report from a recognized agency strengthens your consulate application.
