POSITION SCOPE AND ORGANIZATIONAL IMPACT

The IRA Program Manager will play a critical role in ensuring compliance with Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) requirements across all company projects. This position will support solar project teams, subcontractors, and vendors in adhering to federal labor, apprenticeship, and domestic content regulations. The IRA Program Manager will serve as the key compliance liaison, ensuring that policies are implemented effectively at the project level while also supporting preconstruction and accounting teams.

While the IRA Program Manager will not have direct reports initially, this role is expected to evolve into a leadership position as the solar business scales. The IRA Program Manager will take on additional responsibilities, including managing compliance coordinators and improving operational efficiencies. The goal is to streamline compliance oversight and reduce the need for multiple project-specific compliance managers while maintaining strict adherence to IRA regulations.
