Job Description

At Relectrify, we're on a mission to engineer the future of battery energy storage. We are building a disruptive platform that dramatically reduces the cost of storage by unlocking significantly more energy from every battery cell. We want to see a world abundant with clean energy and believe we will make a meaningful contribution.

Our core values fuel and motivate our work:

  1. Prioritise what matters most: We strive to work with clear objectives and understand why they are the right goals to pursue.
  2. Think critically: We base our decisions on informed, open-minded evaluations, not on hierarchy or gut feelings.
  3. Be decisive: We prioritise action and continuously move forward, adapting as new data becomes available.
  4. Quality and elegance in everything: We put in the effort to distil complexity and make things as clear and impactful as possible.
  5. Collaborate or fail: We seek to work with those who excel and recognise that partnerships are essential to our success.
  6. Get jobs done: We focus on the core task – the job to be done – and we aren’t content until we’ve achieved the desired outcome.

We embrace diverse experiences to fuel our collective success, ensuring everyone can do their best work.

If you are looking to make a positive impact in the world of renewable energy by advancing battery technology, come join us. Even if you don’t meet every requirement, we encourage you to apply — you might just be the perfect fit for our team.

About the Role

Location: This position offers the flexibility of hybrid work between home and our office on the edge of Melbourne CBD. Domestic travel for customer projects will be required from time to time.

Team background: Reporting to the Head of Australia, this newly created position is responsible for the delivery of exceptional technical and project support to our Australian-based customers and partners. As the first Project Engineer in this region, you will have the opportunity to establish processes, solve challenges, and continually improve outcomes for external stakeholders to ensure a positive brand and technology experience.

Who we’re looking for: A Project or Applications Engineer who is experienced in both pre-sales technical support and post-sale project management, who understands the needs of both customers and partners and who can fulfil these requirements through precise project mapping and effective management. You will need to be comfortable working with a diverse set of stakeholders and skilled in taking complex concepts and technical jargon and communicating these in an easily digestible way for your target audience.

You are a fast learner who has a passion for renewable energy, willing to take the initiative to seek out knowledge, improve ways of working, and actively engage with stakeholders to ensure an exemplary experience for our customers and partners.

What you’ll be doing: Relectrify is launching an innovative new battery energy storage system for the Australian market. Built on its CellSwitch® platform, the Relectrify AC1 delivers ‘More Energy’ to asset owners, dramatically improving BESS revenue and project investment returns. The AC1 will primarily be sold and deployed in C&I applications, but it will also be deployed in distribution-level front-of-meter applications. This role provides technical engineering support for the AC1 to both partners and customers. This includes:

  1. Providing application engineering support that helps prospective customers evaluate projects using the AC1, in the process addressing technical questions and selling them on the AC1’s engineering advantages.
  2. Post-sale, to provide project engineering support to the EPC responsible for project delivery, managing all project items within Relectrify’s scope of responsibility.

You will work alongside internal teams to become an expert on our technology and its applications. You will use that expertise to inform customer project design and ensure delivery within our scope to battery energy storage project developers, large business energy users, EPC firms and energy consultants.

Over time, you will drive smarter, faster, more effective delivery of technical solutions to customers, including improving tools, documentation and processes for more effective customer and partner engagement.

  • Extensive experience in customer applications for battery storage, including related technologies such as renewable generation and EMS integration
  • Experience in the deployment of battery storage projects in C&I, distribution-level and front-of-meter applications

  • Demonstrated professionalism with interactions at all levels of collaborating organisations
  • Demonstrated experience in expertly managing the expectations of internal and external project stakeholders
