About This Role

This Project Engineer role involves managing all engineering and construction phases for EV charging station deployments in Western France, from permitting through commissioning. You'll be responsible for Capex/Opex assessments, coordinating with EPC partners and business development teams, and potentially evolving into O&M duties. This position is impactful because you'll be building the physical infrastructure that enables France's transition to electric mobility.

💡 A Day in the Life

A typical day involves reviewing permitting documents for new charging station sites, coordinating with EPC partners on construction timelines, analyzing Capex for upcoming projects, and joining virtual meetings with the French business development team. You might conduct a remote site assessment or prepare technical documentation for commissioning, all while managing multiple deployment projects at different stages.
