Responsibilities
• Engineering background: Bachelor's in Electrical Engineering, Automation/Control, Software, or a related field - or equivalent practical experience in industrial/energy integration. • A proactive and collaborative mindset: You are eager to learn and grow, reliable and collaborative. You take initiative, communicate openly, raise risks early, and care about safe working. You welcome feedback, support your teammates, and steadily build toward taking on more independent ownership of integrations over time. • Travel: Willingness to travel to customers and sites although travel is very occasional. Awareness of site safety is required as we may work with site personnel even though we are remote.
