Job Description

Want to be part of transforming road freight – for good? Einride is showing the world a new way to move, based on the latest digital, electric and autonomous technologies. Through freight capacity as a service, we enable businesses around the world to accelerate towards their sustainability goals.

Founded in 2016, Einride became the first company in the world to deploy a cab-less autonomous electric vehicle on a public road (Sweden, 2019). In 2022, we were the first to successfully operate such a vehicle on a US public road. Today our award-winning technology has been launched across 8 countries (and counting). Our clients are some of the world’s biggest shippers, including Fortune 500 companies. We are also operating Sweden’s largest truck dedicated public charging network and counting.

The Product Manager of the US Charging & Energy Digital Ecosystem will be responsible for defining the overall roadmap of technical solutions required to execute Einride’s US strategy for energy and charging infrastructure programs. This PM will act as a lead in the US Energy & Charging Infrastructures team, as well as a key supporting role in market intelligence for the competitive landscape of energy markets and charge point operations within North America. The role will require the ability to seek out leading market indicators, clearly lay out the short and long term market opportunities, and assess the make or buy criteria by which Einride will assemble the critical digital ecosystem needed to pursue these market opportunities.

You will

• Perform critical market intelligence research, assessing the opportunities for Einride to leverage its expertise in electrified transport and development of energy infrastructure
• Identify emerging market opportunities, particularly in the area of DERMS, EMS, energy aggregation, EV charging/retail energy sales, wholesale energy markets, and general utility services contracting
• Define a 12/36/60 month product roadmap strategy, defending make or buy decisions to fulfill that roadmap
• Closely partner with global digital technology teams, to align on global strategies and Einride brand ambitions
• Oversee the execution, procurement or development of digital solutions and features, specific to the US market

We expect you to:

• Bachelor's Degree in engineering or similar is required; MS preferred
• 5-8+ years of experience in digital platforms managing energy, or a related field
• Specific experience in Product Development, with preference for experiences in either charge point operations, or grid-edge energy platforms
• A minimum 3 years of experience in leading product roadmap development in fields related to EV charging, stationary BESS, Energy Management Systems,
• A minimum of 2 years of experience participating or leading commercial contracting, vendor selection and sourcing, and the performative monitoring of those vendor relationships
• Optimal candidates have experience in electric vehicle charging technologies, and industry standards & protocols, such as OCPP, OCPI, OpenADR, IEC 61851
• Proven experience in generating clear and defensible product strategy materials, and a strength in communicating the plans with senior leadership
• Proven experience in managing critical customer relationships and communication

This position may require moderate business travel, within the US, to meet with stakeholders. However, the role is a remote working role, to be supported within the eastern or central US time zones. This position will report directly to the VP of E&CI for Einride’s North American business. We recommend that you submit your application as soon as possible since selection and interviews are held continually.

At Einride, we are innovators, building solutions the world has never seen before – but urgently needs. That’s why we take action, and it’s why we are always eager to be challenged. We know that our best innovations come from having a diverse mix of people, including those of different experiences, career paths, and walks of life. By coming together and sharing our perspectives openly – by disagreeing, discussing, and committing – we deliver greater impact.
