# Infrastructure & Energy Research Specialist (Public Sector)

> AlphaHire · United States (Remote) · — · Posted 2026-09-23

**Workplace:** remote

## Description

AlphaGov is seeking an Infrastructure & Energy Research Specialist for project-based engagements with utilities, transit agencies, ports, state energy offices, municipalities, and related public or quasi-public clients.

You will lead or support market-feasibility, demand, project-pipeline, workforce-needs, and resilience research tied to infrastructure and energy systems. Licensed engineering practice is only required when a solicitation demands it; most AlphaGov scopes are research and analysis, not stamped design.

What you'll do:

\- Lead or support infrastructure/energy research studies (feasibility, demand, pipeline analysis, resilience, workforce implications)

\- Synthesize technical, economic, and policy sources into decision-ready reports

\- Partner with economists, GIS analysts, and sector operators when scopes require multi-discipline teams

\- Support AlphaGov proposals with accurate sector framing and named-expert narratives (when permissioned)

\- Flag when a solicitation requires PE/licensed professionals and help structure compliant teams

\- Prefer subcontract/partner posture on mega-capital programs until AlphaGov has matching corporate past performance

## Requirements

-   Required:
-   \- 5+ years infrastructure, energy, utility, transit, or resilience research/analysis (consulting, agency, or research org)
-   \- At least two completed public or quasi-public sector studies you can cite (client/agency, your role, year)
-   \- Strong writing and ability to explain technical findings to non-engineers
-   \- Willingness to be named on proposals when expertise aligns and permission is granted

Nice to have:

\- PE, CEM, AICP, GISP, or related credential (when licenses required)

\- GIS / spatial analysis for pipeline or resilience studies

\- Clean-energy, grid, water, or transit workforce studies

\- Federal/state energy-office or utility commission experience
