🏢 About Dynapower

Dynapower is a global leader in power electronics, specializing in advanced power conversion and energy storage solutions that drive the clean energy transition. Working here means contributing to cutting-edge technology that directly impacts the resilience and sustainability of the energy grid, with a collaborative culture that values innovation and impact.

About This Role

As a Program Manager at Dynapower, you'll orchestrate complex projects from initiation to close, ensuring they meet scope, quality, time, and cost targets. Your leadership will directly enable the delivery of clean energy solutions, making you a key driver of the company's mission to build a resilient, clean energy future.

💡 A Day in the Life

Your day might start with a stand-up meeting with your remote project team in Europe, reviewing progress on a new inverter development. You'll then update project plans in MS Project, resolve a resource conflict between two initiatives, and prepare a status report for senior leadership. In the afternoon, you'll facilitate a cross-functional risk review with engineering and supply chain, ensuring the next milestone stays on track.

🎯 Who Dynapower Is Looking For

  • A seasoned project leader with 5+ years of experience managing cross-functional programs in power electronics, energy, or related technical industries.
  • A master of remote collaboration, with proven ability to coordinate distributed teams across EU time zones using tools like Jira, Asana, or MS Project.
  • An expert in risk and resource management, comfortable adapting plans in a fast-paced R&D environment where technical challenges are common.
  • A proactive communicator who can translate technical requirements into clear project milestones and escalate issues effectively to stakeholders.

Include a brief portfolio or case study of a complex project you managed remotely, emphasizing how you overcame cross-functional challenges.

5

Use the application to demonstrate your proficiency with Microsoft Project or similar tools by attaching a sample project timeline or Gantt chart.
