Senior Solutions Engineer – BESS OEM (Start-Up) | Sydney
We're recruiting on behalf of an exciting new entrant to the Australian battery energy storage (BESS) market — a well-backed OEM start-up building out its local team from the ground up in Sydney.
They're initially focused on delivering Commercial & Industrial (C&I;) BESS projects, with a clear roadmap to expand into utility-scale developments as the business scales locally. This is a genuine ground-floor opportunity to help shape both the technical direction and go-to-market strategy for the business in Australia.
About the Role
As Senior Solutions Engineer, you'll be a key technical voice for the business — working directly with clients, EPCs, and internal teams to design and deliver BESS solutions that meet project requirements from initial concept through to execution.
Key Responsibilities
Lead technical solution design for C&I; BESS projects, including system sizing, configuration, and integration
Support the sales and business development team with technical input during the proposal and tendering process
Liaise with clients, EPCs, and distributors to translate requirements into deliverable technical solutions
Work closely with the OEM's global engineering team to localise products for the Australian market and grid requirements
Provide technical guidance on inverter/PCS compatibility, BMS, EMS, and system integration
Contribute to the technical foundations that will support the business's transition into utility-scale projects
Help build out technical processes and documentation as an early member of a growing local team
About You
Strong background in BESS, solar, or broader renewable energy systems — OEM, EPC, or distributor experience highly regarded
Solutions engineering, technical sales, or project engineering experience within C&I; energy storage
Comfortable working autonomously in a start-up environment, wearing multiple hats as the business scales
Robust communication skills — able to translate technical detail for both clients and internal stakeholders
Genuine interest in growing with a business as it moves from C&I; into utility-scale delivery
Based in or willing to be based in Sydney
Why This Role
Rare opportunity to join an OEM at ground level in the Australian market
Direct influence over technical strategy and business direction, not just project execution
Clear growth trajectory as the business expands from C&I; into utility-scale
Competitive salary package, reflective of experience and the seniority of impact expected
