The Aftersales Engineer will work closely with internal engineering teams, assist in technical training efforts, and maintain a strong commitment to safety and compliance in all aspects of field operations.

Responsibilities

• Serve as a key sustaining engineering resource by diagnosing recurring field issues and translating service findings into actionable engineering insights to improve product reliability and performance.
• Perform advanced electrical and mechanical root-cause analysis on DC fast chargers and subsystems, identifying failure modes, design gaps, and manufacturing or installation sensitivities.
• Support ongoing product lifecycle management by validating corrective actions, design updates, firmware changes, and component substitutions through testing and field verification.
• Conduct reliability, regression, and stress testing on mechatronic and high-voltage components (e.g., liquid-cooled systems, power electronics, cable management assemblies) under real-world environmental and operational conditions.
• Develop and maintain detailed technical documentation, including failure reports, corrective action recommendations, and engineering change feedback for R&D, hardware, and software teams.
• Collaborate closely with global engineering, quality, and software teams to prioritize sustaining issues, support defect resolution, and reduce repeat failures in deployed systems.
• Support continuous improvement initiatives by identifying trends in service data, warranty claims, and field performance metrics to inform design refinements and preventive actions.
• Assist in validating serviceability, safety, and maintainability aspects of new or updated products prior to broader field deployment.
• Ensure all diagnostic and testing activities comply with applicable electrical safety standards (OSHA, NFPA 70E) and internal engineering best practices.
• Act as a technical escalation point for complex aftersales issues, balancing customer impact with long-term product health and engineering objectives.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Technical Management, or related field required.
• Certification or training in HV safety (preferred: NFPA 70E, OSHA 1910.269) is a plus.
• 3-5 years’ experience in field operations, sustaining engineering, or customer support management within technical or industrial environments.
• Familiarity with software and hardware debugging and electro mechanical control systems in the electrical equipment, robotics, and EVSE space.
• Strong project management and communication skills.
• Proficient with CRM or service ticketing tools.
• Experience with MS Office Suite or Google Collaborative tools is required.
• Excellent communication skills and ability to work independently under minimal supervision.
• Ability to travel up to 40% throughout the United States and Canada
• Comprehensive health, dental, vision, and disability insurance.
• Company provided life insurance.
• Flexible work schedule and work-life balance.
