The posting

Crescent is a differentiated U.S. energy company committed to delivering value through a disciplined, returns-driven growth through acquisition strategy and consistent return of capital. Our long-life, balanced portfolio combines significant cash flow from stable production with a deep, high-quality development inventory. Crescent is a top three producer in the Eagle Ford basin and a scaled operator in each of the Permian and Uinta basins. Crescent’s leadership is an experienced team of investment, financial and industry professionals that combines proven investment and operating expertise. For more than a decade, Crescent and our predecessors have executed on a consistent strategy focused on cash flow, risk management and returns. Through disciplined and accretive investments, we have successfully tripled the size of our company since going public in December 2021 while maintaining a strong balance sheet.

We are seeking a Reservoir Engineer to support asset development across our unconventional portfolio. This role will focus on development planning, production forecasting, and performance evaluation to optimize capital efficiency and recovery. The Reservoir Engineer collaborates across multidisciplinary teams to drive key business decisions on asset development. Success in this role means seeing how individual well results connect to the broader development plans, questioning established approaches where the data supports a better one, and helping the organization adapt as the portfolio grows. This role is expected to operate with a high degree of independence while maintaining a strong, team-first mentality, balancing day-to-day economic evaluations with comprehensive well performance analysis.

Key Responsibilities

  • Develop recommendations related to well spacing, landing zones, completion design, and production practices to optimize asset value
  • Perform project and field-level economic analyses for the purpose of AFEs and field development utilizing ARIES
  • Generate and maintain production forecasts, type curves, and development cases for assigned asset areas
  • Evaluate well and reservoir performance using rate transient analysis (RTA), pressure transient analysis (PTA), and numerical simulation when necessary
  • Evaluate and report competitor results detailing interpreted strategies and how it relates to internal practices
  • Lead integrated lookbacks that connect reservoir performance with drilling, completion, and operating outcomes
  • Partner with Land, Commercial, and Finance to advance opportunities — identifying and evaluating trades, swaps, and bolt-on transactions adding resource and extending inventory at attractive returns
  • Work with the Finance team on budget and long-term forecasting, consistent with the Company’s development plan

Required Qualifications

  • Proven team-first mentality with a track record of actively collaborating across disciplines
  • Bachelor’s degree in Petroleum Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related discipline
  • 6 or more years of upstream operator experience, with a minimum of 3 years of dedicated reservoir engineering experience
  • Experience in Unconventional Reservoirs
  • Proficiency in RTA software, specifically Whitson+
  • Ability to leverage Generative AI tools for practical engineering problem-solving, data analysis, and workflow efficiency
  • Strong technical expertise and daily proficiency in ARIES for economic evaluation and decline curve analysis
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to work independently

Preferred Qualifications

  • Demonstrated ability to think creatively, innovate, and effectively challenge the status quo
  • Experience in the Eagle Ford, Permian, or Uinta basins
  • Mix of reservoir, planning, or production operations

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
