• Demonstrated expertise designing multi-MW scale energy storage systems, with strong command of both DC and AC electrical design principles.
• High level of technical aptitude spanning from battery cell fundamentals through C&I and utility-scale battery systems.
• Strong working knowledge of secondary battery chemistries, degradation mechanisms, system architectures, and operational limitations across diverse duty cycles.
• Practical experience with balance-of-system (BOS) equipment, including inverters, medium-voltage transformers, combiner boxes, DC/DC converters, EMS, and BMS platforms.
• Strong knowledge of NEC and applicable regulatory codes and standards for PV and energy storage installations, including NFPA 70 (NEC), IEEE 1547, UL 9540, UL 1741, and other relevant global standards.
• Working knowledge of grid connection and product compliance requirements applicable in Saudi Arabia and the wider GCC, including Saudi Electricity Company grid connection requirements and SASO / GSO conformity schemes.
• Solid understanding of how energy storage and PV projects are constructed, commissioned, and brought online.
• Experience specifying or validating energy storage equipment for high-ambient-temperature environments.
• Ability to interpret operational data, apply statistical analysis techniques, and produce clear, actionable reports.
• Working knowledge of commercial contracts, performance guarantees, and how technical design and proposal assumptions must support contractual obligations.
• Familiarity with competitive energy storage products in the market and the ability to clearly articulate differentiated technical value.
• Proven ability to operate cross-functionally across engineering, product, sales, marketing, and field teams.
• Demonstrated ability to meet tight deadlines, manage multiple priorities, and maintain accountability for deliverables.
• Professional fluency in Arabic and English, written and spoken, with the ability to run technical discussions and present to customers in both languages.
• Based in Saudi Arabia and working remotely, with the right to work in the Kingdom.
• Willingness and ability to travel 10–20% to support customer engagement, project development, site validation, and industry events.

Requirements

• Technical Depth & Range: Comfortable discussing electrochemical behavior at the cell level and reviewing single-line diagrams for multi-MW grid-connected systems.
• Pre-Sales & Commercial Orientation: Understand that technical precision underpins revenue and supports proposals that stand up to RFP scrutiny.
• Professional & Accountable: Meet commitments, communicate proactively, and maintain composure under tight timelines.

Benefits

• Unique opportunity to own full end-to-end technical application engineering work of a disruptive long-duration metal-hydrogen energy storage technology in the Middle East.
• Direct alignment with EnerVenue’s manufacturing team and joint technical roadmap planning with product engineering team.
• Competitive compensation package including base salary and project performance bonus tied to successful bid delivery and project win rate.
• Mid-level technical management position backed by top-tier global investors, with clear gigawatt-scale production capacity expansion roadmap.
• Join a mission-driven team developing 30-year service-life grid infrastructure energy storage equipment.
• Full technical training resources, access to global electrochemical R&D data and field test cases, plus funding for regional industry conferences and standard certification upgrades.
