Role
Who you are

- Technically comfortable, well beyond spreadsheet tools — able to work with APIs, dashboards and low-/no-code platforms without needing to write production code
- Comfortable using AI tools such as GitHub Copilot in daily work
- Strong stakeholder management, clear, structured communicator who can bridge engineering, operations, commercial teams, partners and customers
- Data-driven problem solver with strong analytical thinking and UX focus for internal Stakeholder and external customers
- Demonstrated ability to proactively identify opportunities, define solutions and drive initiatives from concept through delivery
- Comfortable operating in complex, multi-stakeholder service environments
- Collaborative, pragmatic and adaptable in a small, fast-evolving organization

What the job involves
- The transport revolution is on the horizon, presenting significant challenges and opportunities in the mobility sector
- We're focused on delivering the right charge points at the right time and place. As the UK's leading public EV charging provider, ubitricity collaborates with local authorities to install and operate charging solutions for electric vehicles in public spaces
- To rapidly expand the charging infrastructure, we operate lamppost, AC fast, and DC rapid charge points across Germany, the UK, France and the Netherlands
- This is a hands-on Technical Product Management role at the intersection of software, hardware and external platform integrations. You will work closely with engineers and partners on APIs, system integrations and the end-to-end EV charging journey
- As Ecosystem Manager in the team, you'll help advance e-mobility and build an efficient, accessible charging network for everyone
- Put the EV driver at the center of everything we build. You'll own and evolve the ecosystem services and integrations — connecting our teams, markets and suppliers — that make charging effortless and reliable for every driver, from the moment they plug in to the moment they pay, while keeping operations running smoothly, priorities aligned, and a complex software environment continuously improving
- Drive development and evolution of key ecosystem components, integrations and services, ensuring they deliver value for EV drivers and the business
- Own the budget for development and design initiatives in your area
- Shapen and coordinate API and system integrations across internal teams and external suppliers and stakeholders, and facilitate alignment between Software, Hardware, Operations, Commercial and partners, ensuring a seamless experience for drivers
- Take ownership of product quality in your area, continuously improving how work is planned, shipped and maintained
- Proactively identify customer pain points, operational challenges and market opportunities, and translate them into product improvements and new initiatives
- Prioritise work using value-based frameworks, considering customer impact, business value and strategic goals, in a multi-stakeholder environment
- Translate customers’, business and technical needs into clear requirements and user stories
- Support iterative delivery and small pilots, and equip local markets with the tooling, documentation and support they need to move fast
- Work closely with engineers day to day to clarify scope, answer questions and make implementation trade-offs
- Run Scrum processes for the development team and coordinate work packages with internal colleagues
- Prototype new feature UI/UX directly in our live application using AI coding tools such as GitHub Copilot to validate ideas before engineering builds them
Our take
Accounting for $16.6 billion dollars, the electric car charging industry is of growing importance to both the environmental and economic sectors. With sustainable energy now much cheaper than gas, fossil fuel leaders have much more incentive to invest in sustainable energy than ever before.
And that's exactly what Shell appears to be doing. Investing around $3 billion dollars a year in sustainable energy, Shell at least looks like it's taking steps to cut down its fossil fuel reliance, despite still profiting heavily from the mining of fossil fuels. Ubitricity, a global software and hardware provider for electric car charging stations, is one of these investments.
Having gained partnerships with the likes of Siemens, who have a minority stake in the company, Ubitricity transforms streetlamps into charging stations for cars and is making headway, most notably in the UK. Its acquisition by Shell indicates a strategy by large fossil fuel companies to have more influence in the sustainability sector. The results of this remain to be seen, but Ubitricity has proved itself to be an important part of global transitions away from fossil fuels.
