Commercial Leadership

• Translate platform capabilities into compelling value propositions and differentiated competitive positioning.
• Engage strategic customers, consultants, EPCs, and ecosystem partners to influence specifications and accelerate adoption.
• Support major pursuits and executive customer conversations around platform strategy and system architecture.
• Monitor pipeline, win/loss insights, pricing, and adoption trends to inform commercial actions and roadmap priorities.

Cross-Functional Leadership

• Align global product, engineering, marketing, sales, operations, supply chain, quality, finance, and services teams.
• Establish clear governance around priorities, dependencies, tradeoffs, and key platform decisions.
• Partner across lines of business to develop complete architectures and resolve system-level ownership boundaries.
• Communicate progress, risks, recommendations, and key decisions to executive, delivery, and commercial stakeholders.

What You’ll Bring

• 10 years of product, offer, systems, engineering, or commercial leadership experience in mission-critical or adjacent industries.
• Expert knowledge of three-phase UPS, high-power conversion, controls, electrical systems, or grid-connected systems.
• Experience defining product strategy, investment cases, lifecycle plans, and value propositions for complex platforms.
• Strong systems thinking across equipment, controls, software, deployment, and services.
• Ability to engage credibly with hyperscale, colocation, consultant, EPC, enterprise, utility, and technology partners.
• Strong commercial and financial acumen, including growth planning, pricing, profitability, and business-case development.
• Proven ability to influence and drive decisions within global, matrixed organizations.
• Executive-level communication skills with the ability to translate technical complexity into clear recommendations and tradeoffs.
• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Power Electronics, Systems Engineering, or a related discipline; an advanced degree is a plus.
• Ability to thrive amid ambiguity, emerging technologies, rapid industry change, and high-visibility business priorities.
