Join our dynamic Engineering team as a Project Lead Engineer and take charge of technically leading the execution and tendering of cutting-edge eMobility electric power supply infrastructure projects—including DC charging solutions for electric buses. You’ll shape technical solutions, lead engineering efforts across MV & LV distribution systems and power conversion equipment and collaborate with internal and external stakeholders to drive innovation and excellence.

If you're passionate about sustainable mobility and thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative environment, this is your chance to make a real impact.
 

How you’ll make an impact

• Lead the technical execution and tendering of eMobility electrical infrastructure projects (e.g., bus depots, terminal charging stations)

• Own all engineering activities across project lifecycles—from concept to commissioning

• Collaborate with customers, suppliers, and internal teams (Sales, R&D, Product Specialists, Supply chain, Site Execution, etc.)

• Coordinate and supervise remote engineering teams for primary and secondary engineering tasks

• Design power supply system architectures, perform sizing calculations, and prepare technical specifications

• Evaluate supplier offers and support procurement processes with Supply Chain Management

• Provide technical expertise during tendering and project execution phases

• Translate customer requirements into optimized, compliant technical solutions

• Lead technical discussions with clients, resolve site queries, and ensure timely, high-quality deliverables

• Ensure safety, compliance, and engineering excellence throughout the project

Your background

• Bachelor’s or master’s degree in electrical engineering, with a focus on Power Electronics or Power Systems

• 7–10 years of experience in MV/LV power distribution systems, electrical systems design & engineering

• Experience with DC power supply systems, power converters, energy storage, or harmonic filtering is a plus

• Strong knowledge of engineering tools and software (e.g., BIM, CAD, ETAP, MathCAD)

• Proactive, results-driven mindset with strong teamwork and communication skills

• Committed to safety, quality, and continuous learning

• Willingness to travel up to 10% for customer and project meetings
