About the Role

We are looking for a mission-driven commercial leader who combines the mindset of a General Manager with the capabilities of a Product Strategist, bringing a genuine passion for clean energy and a greener future with experience in Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) as a strong plus. As the ultimate owner of your Product Line, you will drive the full lifecycle transformation of market opportunities into high-yield, scalable businesses. You will define the strategy, lead commercialization, maximize profitability, and build long-term enterprise value. Serving as the master orchestrator between Sales, Engineering, Software, Operations, Supply Chain, Finance, and Service, you will align the entire organization around a single goal of delivering unmatched customer value and sustainable, profitable growth.

How You'll Make an Impact

• Build, own, and execute the multi-year commercial strategy and financial growth model for your product line to drive revenue, gross margins, overall profitability, and long-term enterprise value.

• Evaluate market dynamics, competitive landscapes, and unit economics to pinpoint high-growth applications, target segments, and market opportunities.

• Translate the voice of the customer and market requirements into differentiated commercially successful product offerings with compelling value propositions.

• Define, validate, and continuously monitor product roadmaps while actively promoting them and driving buy-in across all key internal and external stakeholders.

• Act as the strategic orchestrator across Sales, Engineering, Software, Operations, Supply Chain, Finance, and Service to lead cross-functional development from concept through successful commercial launch with rapid time-to-market.

• Develop and drive go-to-market strategies, pricing models, sales enablement tools, and commercialization plans that ensure market penetration and sales execution.

• Manage the full product lifecycle from launch to phase-out while building sustainable after-sales, maintenance, service, and recurring revenue models around the installed base.

• Leverage operational product data and market insights to drive continuous product performance improvements, identify digital and software service opportunities, and boost product margins.

What Makes you a successful candidate

• Extensive experience in Product Management / Business Unit Management / Commercial Management, or a comparable General Manager-style leadership role

• Strong track record in scaling complex B2B technology products internationally from initial development to market success

• Proven ownership of business plans, product line profitability, pricing models, and analytical business case development

• Demonstrated track record of combining high-level strategic vision with pragmatic, hands-on execution

• Ability to translate complex engineering and technology capabilities into clear customer value propositions and scalable business models

• Excellent stakeholder management and cross-functional leadership capabilities with the comfort to operate in a dynamic scale-up environment

• Exceptional communicator in both German and English with a proven ability to align cross-functional divisions, suppliers, key stakeholders, and customer executives

What Will Make You Stand Out

• Experience within energy storage systems, renewable energy, power systems, industrial technology, or electrical equipment industries

• Specialized knowledge of Battery Energy Storage Systems, BMS, EMS, energy markets, power electronics, software-enabled products, data analytics, or recurring revenue business models

How Success Is Measured in This Role

• Revenue growth, order intake, and product line business plan execution

• Gross margin expansion and overall product line profitability

• Time-to-market efficiency and successful product launches

• Expansion of the installed base and growth in recurring after-sales revenue

• High customer satisfaction and seamless cross-functional alignment
