The Role The Engineering Director is TUAL&rsquo;s senior technical leader and design authority. This is a foundational role: part co-founder, part system-builder. You will cascade ambition into action, creating the engineering backbone that transforms a promising product into a global platform. This is not a &ldquo;spanners down&rdquo; role.

<hr>
What You&rsquo;ll Do Technology Direction &amp; Compliance - Own the technology roadmap and architecture, balancing ambition with disciplined execution. - Act as design authority across software, systems, mechanical, power, and cloud. - Ensure full-stack compliance: electrical safety, EMC, grid codes, battery safety, cyber, interoperability (e.g. OCPP). - Capture and manage intellectual property, embedding innovation and AI/ML in products and operations. Engineering Systems &amp; Delivery - Build engineering processes from scratch: design reviews, test protocols, release management. - Drive reliability, quality assurance and iteration speed to deliver 99.99% uptime in the field. - Oversee outsourced design partners and suppliers: set specs, qualify vendors, manage delivery, ensure compliance. - Lead lifecycle from prototype through industrialisation, manufacturing and post-implementation review.
<hr>
Your Background - Proven record building and leading cross-disciplinary engineering teams. - Start-up tested: professionalised technical systems under tight resources. - Strong track record of delivery: roadmaps, system builds, on-time releases. - Deep exposure to energy systems, mobility or distributed assets (not necessarily high-power charging). - Supplier and partner management experience, from spec definition to QA. - Degree in engineering, computer science, or related field. Advanced degrees welcome.
