About This Role

This Technical Project Manager role serves as the crucial bridge between Kaluza's internal engineering teams and their B2B energy supplier clients during integration projects. You'll be responsible for translating complex platform architecture into actionable requirements while simultaneously managing internal infrastructure projects, making this role central to both client success and platform stability. Your work directly enables energy suppliers to implement Kaluza's decarbonization software, amplifying the company's environmental impact.

💡 A Day in the Life

A typical day might involve morning stand-ups with engineering teams working on platform enhancements, followed by client calls to discuss API integration requirements and timelines. You'd spend afternoons coordinating between internal technical teams and client stakeholders, ensuring alignment on delivery schedules while managing technical governance of integration points. The role balances deep technical coordination with strategic client relationship management, all within the context of accelerating energy decarbonization.
