Role purpose

Lead technology-readiness, feedstock/resource, system-integration, market, off-take, infrastructure, safeguards, finance, and pilot-to-scale assessments for advanced and emerging energy opportunities.

Representative problems this role must solve

• A hydrogen, biofuel, hybrid, distributed-energy, or emerging-technology concept is technically appealing but lacks credible readiness, feedstock, cost, infrastructure, off-take, or scale-up evidence.
• Vendor advocacy substitutes for independent assessment of alternatives, failure modes, supply chain, lifecycle impacts, and bankability.
• A sponsor needs a staged pilot, feasibility, technical-assistance, or investment pathway with explicit evidence and stop/go conditions.

Responsibilities

• Assess technology readiness, reference performance, feedstock/resource, process/system design, infrastructure, supply chain, scale-up, market/off-take, lifecycle cost, safeguards, regulation, financing, and implementation.
• Compare alternatives and test vendor/sponsor assumptions using independent evidence, sensitivities, maturity gates, and failure branches.
• Define pilot/test, feasibility, demonstration, data, stakeholder, TOR, budget, schedule, acceptance, and scale-up requirements.
• Integrate with power/grid, process engineering, finance, safeguards, country/regulatory, procurement, and supplier specialists.
• Provide or coordinate independent technical review appropriate to the technology.

Minimum evidence-based qualifications

• Senior technology development, engineering, commercialization, project development, feasibility, demonstration, diligence, or investment experience in hydrogen, biofuels, hybrid systems, distributed energy, or another relevant advanced-energy domain.
• Evidence moving a technology from concept or pilot toward a defensible implementation/investment decision—or stopping an unsupported concept.
• Experience evaluating scale-up, feedstock, infrastructure, market/off-take, cost, lifecycle, safety, and regulatory interfaces.
• Emerging-market experience strongly preferred.
• U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident, with written attestation required before proposal inclusion.
• Demonstrated senior/expert judgment supported by specific project, analysis, decision-product, or implementation evidence—not keyword familiarity alone.
• Ability to produce concise, defensible written analysis in English and work across technical, commercial, financial, safeguards, institutional, and implementation interfaces.
• Ability to become available for potential Indo-Pacific travel within 20 calendar days after Axyde's written mobilization notice following contract award, subject to assignment needs and Government direction.
• Willingness to disclose availability, employment/contract restrictions, confidentiality obligations, conflicts, noncompetes, country/customer limitations, and relevant intellectual-property constraints.

Evidence to submit

• Current résumé or CV with dates, employer/client, country, project stage, personal role, methods used, decision product, and outcome for the most relevant assignments.
• Two to four representative projects demonstrating the required expert judgment and decision-grade products.
• Countries/regions worked, languages used professionally, travel limitations, and current location.
• Licenses, registrations, clearances, certifications, publications, or standards experience when relevant to the role.
• Written permission for Axyde to use and evidence-preservingly reformat the résumé for solicitation 1131PL26R0056, subject to final résumé review if requested.

Application questions

• Are you a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident? State one; do not upload identity documents at the application stage.
• May Axyde use your name and evidence-preservingly tailor/reformat your résumé for this specific contingent proposal?
• Could you become available for required Indo-Pacific travel within 20 calendar days after Axyde's written mobilization notice following contract award? Identify restrictions.
• Identify current employment, contractual, confidentiality, noncompete, customer, country, or conflict restrictions relevant to this opportunity.
• Describe the strongest decision product you personally led or independently reviewed and the decision it supported.
• Identify the advanced-energy technologies and lifecycle stages where you can lead, contribute, or independently review.
• Describe a technology-readiness or scale-up decision where independent evidence contradicted or materially qualified sponsor/vendor claims.
• Provide one example of a pilot, feasibility, demonstration, commercialization, or investment scope you developed or reviewed.
