What you will own
1. Ultra Mode, our consumer flexibility product
- Own the vision, roadmap and customer proposition for Ultra Mode, covering both smart charging and grid support, across the Hypervolt app, the charger and our customer communications.
- Grow enrolment and opt-in: design the onboarding and consent journeys and the rewards customers receive for taking part.
- Protect the customer experience. Flexibility must be invisible to the driver: the car is ready when they need it, and earnings are clear and trusted.
- Work with Customer Support and Marketing to remove friction, answer the questions customers actually ask, and turn participants into advocates.
2. Flexibility programmes and performance
- Turn our fleet into dependable, measurable flexibility that partners can rely on, and keep every programme running smoothly once it is live.
- Write clear requirements for the data, control and reporting that flexibility programmes depend on, working closely with engineering.
- Make sure the right customers are in the right programmes, and that the product keeps that simple for customers and for us.
3. UltraGrid, our platform for energy partners
- Own UltraGrid as a product: the application programming interface that energy suppliers, aggregators and home energy platforms use to read data from, and control, Hypervolt chargers.
- Make Hypervolt the easiest charger in the market to integrate with: documentation, sandbox and test environments, onboarding time and developer support.
- Set and track the service levels partners rely on (availability, latency, incident communication) together with engineering, so we keep delivering enterprise-grade reliability.
- Work with Partnerships and Finance on packaging and pricing.
4. Aggregation and supplier partnerships
- Be the product lead in partner deals: scope integrations, translate partner commercial and technical requirements into our roadmap, and support contract negotiations on the product side.
- Run live partner programmes after signature: launches, performance reviews and continuous improvement.
- Assess new partners (aggregators, energy suppliers, home energy management platforms and vehicle manufacturers) and help decide which to prioritise, and when to say no.
5. Regulation and standards
- Track regulatory and market change affecting smart charging and flexibility, and translate it into product decisions.
- Contribute to our approach to interoperability standards and to how flexibility shapes our future products.
- Represent Hypervolt in industry trials, working groups and consultations.
6. Commercial performance
- Own the key measures for flexibility, such as enrolment, partner performance, revenue and customer satisfaction.
- Build business cases and work with Finance on forecasting.
What you will bring
- At least five years of product management experience, including at least two years in energy flexibility, demand response, smart charging, energy supply or aggregation.
- Working knowledge of Great Britain’s electricity system and how household flexibility is valued and used.
- A track record of shipping connected products that combine hardware, firmware and cloud software, or platform and application programming interface products used by business customers.
- Technical fluency: comfortable discussing telemetry, time-series data, latency and integration design with engineers, and writing clear, testable requirements.
- Commercial judgement: pricing, unit economics and partner negotiations.
- Real empathy for consumers, including consent, data protection and trust, and the instinct to keep the product simple.
- Clear, confident communication with senior partner stakeholders and with our own engineering team alike.
Nice to have
