About ev.energy
We are building the world's largest EV-centric virtual power plant (VPP). By connecting to vehicles, chargers, batteries, solar, and other distributed energy resources, we turn households into flexible grid assets that balance supply and demand, preventing blackouts and reducing reliance on fossil fuels.
We are scaling rapidly across North America and Europe. We are moving fast, we are AI-first, and we are looking for builders who want to power the grid of the future.
About the role
ev.energy grows through partnerships: with utilities, with the commercial team selling into them, and with the hardware and integration partners whose devices connect to our platform. We're hiring a Technical Program Manager to own those relationships end-to-end — the connective tissue between our commercial team, our external partners, and our engineering and product teams.

- 5+ years in technical program management, product management, partnerships, or a related role
- Strong technical fluency — comfortable with REST APIs, authentication, and integration patterns (e.g. OpenADR, DERMS, utility platforms) — paired with a genuine commercial mindset
- Excellent external communication: you can lead a technical overview for a partner and a status update for an exec with equal ease
- A demonstrated ability to align cross-functional stakeholders and drive commitments without direct authority
- Experience in energy, EV, IoT, or another partner-integration-heavy domain
- A track record of building the program-management function at a small or scaling company, not just running project
- Own a portfolio of technical partner relationships (roughly 6–10 to start), inheriting integration-partner relationship management as it moves into the team — the trusted bridge between what partners and commercial need and what engineering delivers
- Lead complex integrations from requirements discovery and scoping through project planning, testing, and launch to production
- Champion the value of our platform APIs and integrations — conveying use cases, benefits, and the integration process to partners and internal stakeholders alike
- Coordinate across Product, Engineering, Commercial, and Support to keep everyone aligned on the critical path and on schedule
- Develop repeatable playbooks so each new integration is faster and more reliable than the last
- Define partner-success metrics beyond uptime and SLAs, and communicate program status, risks, and ROI to leadership
- Use AI tooling (Claude and equivalents) as a core part of how you work — drafting partner-facing docs and integration specs, synthesizing status across programs, and turning your playbooks into repeatable, partly-automated workflows
- We're an AI-first company with agentic routines and shared internal tooling; you'll lean on it to stay on top of a broad portfolio and help shape how program management works in an AI-native org
