Position Overview

We are looking for a highly proactive and self-motivated Technical Support Engineer based in South Africa to support our growing renewable energy portfolio.

• PV/BESS Knowledge: Sound functional understanding of solar PV, inverters, transformers, and battery systems (deep R&D or advanced structural design skills are not required; focus is on practical execution).
• Soft Skills: Driven, high ownership, ability to work independently, and fluent in professional written and spoken English.

What We Offer

• Competitive local remuneration package.
• Direct exposure to both Eskom utility-scale builds and fast-paced C&I solar/storage markets.
• Flat, agile, and collaborative international team environment.
