Responsibilities

• Project management: Lead projects from contract signature to commissioning — monitor schedule, quality and costs; act as the central point of contact for the customer.
• Technical implementation: Coordinate installation, connection and integration of the storage system with electrical contractors, civil contractors, manufacturers, plant certifiers and customer teams.
• Understand and consider single-line diagrams (SLD) and measurement concepts; ensure technical requirements (connection concept, protection, safety).
• Grid connection & authorities: Prepare and submit applications to grid operators and metering‑point operators.
• Actively manage questions from the grid operator; consolidate technical response packages.
• Accompany proof and documentation according to relevant standards (e.g., VDE-AR-N 4105/4110) together with partners.
• Collect approvals, test reports and certificates up to commissioning.
• Risks & customer experience: Identify technical risks early, give clear go/no-go signals and find pragmatic solutions.
• Inform customers transparently — your goal: turn projects into reference customers.
• Build processes: Convert project experience into CRM entries, checklists, templates and simple standards that make future projects faster.
