We are looking for a Head Of Product to be hired on a permanent contract with one of our clients, an innovative Start-Up in the chemical-engineering sector. Our client specializes in renewable energy and, in particular, in the research, development and prototyping of new green batteries and long-duration energy storage containerized systems

The role:

• Own the product roadmap and requirements for the containerized system, defining KPIs (performance, efficiency, availability, lifetime, CAPEX/OPEX)
• Translate use cases and customer needs into system-level requirements, interfaces, and operating envelopes
• Define the container-scale system architecture (power train integration, hydraulics/BOP, sensors, controls, interfaces to PCS and site BOP)

• Drive product safety and risk management activities (e.g., FMEA/HAZID/HAZOP), reliability strategy, and safety-by-design
• Lead compliance and certification strategy (electrical safety, pressure systems, chemical storage/handling, EMC, functional safety where applicable)
• Convert product needs into component specifications and acceptance criteria (pumps/valves/piping, stack modules, membranes, seals, sensors, wetted materials)
• Build and manage Verification & Validation frameworks (test plans, pass/fail criteria, FAT/SAT structure, change control, requirements traceability)
• Coordinate with engineering and operations teams to enable design-for-manufacturing, design-for-assembly, cost-down, and supplier alignment
• Draft procedures, reports and technical documentation in general

Mandatory skills:

• Master's degree or PhD in energy, mechanical, chemical engineering or equivalent qualification
• Previous experience of at least 7 years gained in the development of complex industrial products/projects in the energy field, with particular focus on system requirements definition, architectures and cross-functional management (preferably within the environment of flow batteries and/or hydrogen systems and/or skid)
