Description

Own defined workstreams across product launches, market enablement, and VPP/partner integrations for APAC residential energy products. You will model and communicate value streams (e.g., backup, self-consumption, time-of-use, VPP revenue, FCAS) while ensuring products meet regional market and grid requirements. You will drive pilots, success metrics, partner training content, certification, and commercialization to closure.

• Degree in Engineering, Data Science, Business, or related field, or equivalent experience
