Ohme is on a mission to accelerate the global transition to clean, affordable energy. We do that by serving as an integrated hardware and software smart-grid platform, focused on the residential EV charging market.

The worlds of energy, transport and artificial intelligence are colliding and Ohme is at the heart of this new era. By using technology and data integrations to connect cars, chargers, people, energy providers and more, Ohme has a powerful platform that puts the consumer at the core.

Ohme has been selling its chargers to consumers since mid 2019 and has had exponential growth since. We are now operating in multiple countries and have partnerships with the likes of VW, Mercedes, Octopus Energy, and other innovative brands.

• Customer & Market Insight - Get close to how the backend shapes the customer experience - through the App, support and incident data, partner integration and market feedback.
• Road mapping & Prioritisation - Maintain a feature backlog and prioritise within the team using simple frameworks.
• Execution & Delivery - Build POCs and prototype with agentic AI, write PRDs, user stories and acceptance criteria, prototype and test in partnership with design and engineering to ship on time.
• Product Quality Metrics - Define success metrics for performance, adoption and quality. Query logs and identify anomalies.

• You're a self starter - you've taught yourself something hard because you wanted to and overcome challenges under your own steam.
• You're customer obsessed - you think in personas, segments and Jobs To Be Done.
• You're a problem solver - you focus on outcomes and finding solutions to unblock your path.
• You love numbers - data and metrics are how you decide what to do next, and how you judge whether it worked.
• You follow the money - you don't need to manage a budget, but you understand what costs are and what drives revenue.
• You're technically astute - proficient with data querying (SQL) and API contracts (REST/JSON) and comfortable enough with system architecture and logs to ask sharp questions.
• You're a team player - you want to win and help others in your squad be great.
