Carl Moeller

In his tenure at Mortenson, Carl has played an integral leadership role in starting and developing the company’s electrical engineering and construction capabilities and expanding the technical depth of knowledge throughout the energy groups. He has built a reputation as an adept problem solver, communicator, and technical team builder and coach for many disciplines, and has developed a resume on both strong project performance and creative pursuit work. 

Carl began his career with Mortenson fifteen years ago as an electrical engineer supporting wind projects and electrical construction scopes throughout the United States and Canada. As the company expanded its renewable capabilities, the Power Delivery group was formed. Carl stepped into the team with creation of an application engineering team that would go on and grow to become Mortenson Engineering Services. He eventually focused on design phase management in 2014 to guide the team’s preconstruction efforts.

In 2019, he became part of Mortenson’s Energy Storage group’s preconstruction team where he moved from design phase executive to director of design phase and into his current role now as vice president of design phase management.

Carl’s leadership in design phase management has helped Mortenson become a trusted partner in delivering large and complex renewables projects, especially in new industries.  Carl has guided and inspired a new generation of engineers and design phase managers, fostering a culture of problem-solving leadership.

Prior to his time with Mortenson, Carl worked as a transmission design engineer for Ulteig Engineers and as a project engineer for Henkels & McCoy on wind farm and distribution electrical projects. He also worked for Affiliated Engineers in MEP design and for Remmele Engineering in industrial automation. He leverages this prior experience in design engineering and construction operations to provide a broad knowledge base for a holistic design phase management approach.

Carl is currently located in Colorado, working from Mortenson’s Denver office. Carl graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Wisconsin.

Whether learning to fly fish in Colorado’s rivers or spending early mornings and weekends running his large BBQ smoker cooking up some of the best BBQ in the state of Colorado, Carl brings the same systems thinking and grit to his personal pursuits as he does to leading teams through complex projects.
