O&M Engineer - Italy & Balkans
Sungrow Italy S.r.l. · Italy, Milan
Your mission
Ciao a tutti! We're thrilled to introduce a key role at the heart of our service organization in Italy and the Balkans: the O&M Engineer. You would be the technical and operational owner of the service we deliver to our PV and BESS fleet.
Curious what this is all about? Let's dive right in:
- Be the first line of remote troubleshooting on inverters, PCS, batteries, EMS and SCADA, solving remotely what can be solved before a field visit is needed.
- Plan and guide on-site interventions with our Field Service Engineers and service partners, validate the results, and step in yourself when a case calls for it.
- Develop clear RCAs and technical reports that support warranty and contractual decisions for customers and HQ.
- Plan preventive maintenance campaigns, manage tickets end to end, and deliver monthly KPI reports on availability, response times and energy losses.
- Follow up on contract invoicing and service partner invoices, and coordinate and qualify partners across Italy and the Balkans.
- Support the review of LTSA and SLA contracts, and keep service quality high with AI and data tools such as Power BI and CRM.
Your profile
All right, all right, that was intriguing, wasn't it? Now, to thrive in this role and be happy here for a long time, your ideal background should look a lot like this:
- A degree in Electrical, Electronic or Energy Engineering, or equivalent experience as an electrical technician (LV/MV, AC/DC, power electronics).
- 3+ years in O&M, field service or commissioning of utility-scale PV and/or BESS, with knowledge of inverters, PCS, batteries, MV equipment and EMS/SCADA/PPC. Sungrow or comparable equipment experience is a plus.
- Strong remote troubleshooting and analytical skills, including log analysis, RCA and KPI reporting, plus a structured, organized way of working.
- The ability to read and apply SLA/LTSA, warranty and partner contracts, including scope, response times, availability, penalties and exclusions.
- Italian C2 and English B2 or higher are required, and Spanish is a plus. You are proficient in MS Office (especially Excel) and comfortable with AI tools. CRM, ticketing and Power BI are a plus.
- A driving license, H&S training for construction and electrical sites, and willingness to travel about 50%, mainly across Italy and occasionally to the Balkans. The role is based in Milan.
