Project Manager – Solid State Transformer (SST) Deployments

Lead day-to-day execution of SST deployment projects at pilot sites, ensuring safety, quality, schedule, and scope objectives are met.

Manage the full project lifecycle — from planning and site readiness through installation, integration, testing, and commissioning.

Maintain detailed project plans, deliverables, and milestones aligned with program-level objectives.

Coordinate site activities across engineering, supply chain, manufacturing, quality, vendor partners, and customer teams to ensure seamless execution.

Drive effective issue resolution by tracking gaps, dependencies, and technical challenges encountered during deployment.

Serve as the primary operational contact for pilot site stakeholders, ensuring transparent communication and timely updates.

Oversee on-site system validation, performance monitoring, and troubleshooting during initial operational phases.

Coordinate internal teams to deliver post-deployment support, including bug fixes, firmware updates, and performance improvements.

Document learnings, site feedback, failure modes, and improvement opportunities to inform future deployments and product iterations.

Support Agile execution within engineering and deployment teams, including sprint planning, backlog grooming, daily standups, and sprint demos.

Translate site needs and deployment issues into clear Agile user stories with defined acceptance criteria.

Maintain traceability between field issues, engineering actions, and sprint deliverables.

Ensure project status, risks, and progress are clearly communicated within the Agile framework.

Partner closely with the Program Manager to align project timelines, priorities, resources, and risk mitigation plans.

Collaborate with supply chain and operations to ensure materials readiness, delivery schedules, and vendor coordination remain on track.

Support engineering teams in system integration, test planning, and execution of site-specific configurations.

Maintain documentation including deployment procedures, site checklists, risk logs, test reports, and post-deployment summaries.

Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Project Management, or a related technical discipline; or equivalent practical experience.

3+ years of experience managing technical, field-execution, or hardware deployment projects.

Strong understanding of electrical systems, industrial installations, or power-related technologies (experience with power electronics is a plus).

Demonstrated success coordinating cross-functional teams in fast-paced, high-complexity environments.

Experience working within Agile frameworks (Scrum or Kanban) and supporting Agile execution.

Excellent communication skills — verbal, written, and visual — with the ability to engage both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Ability and willingness to travel to pilot sites (10–20%, depending on project phase).

Experience in EV charging, power electronics, renewable energy, industrial power, or utilities.

Familiarity with system commissioning, site acceptance testing (SAT), and field troubleshooting.

Certifications such as PMP, CSM, or equivalent Agile/Project Management credentials.
