Full job description
The Job
As a Commercial Technical Operations Manager, you'll be the technical lead for a distributed portfolio of solar PV and energy storage assets. You'll be the main technical contact for your assigned clients and will work daily with Portfolio Managers and the Commercial Operations Team.
You'll take assets from onboarding through performance management and reporting, and you'll support the service and QA/QC work that keeps them producing, including our commercial BESS service program. As our portfolio grows in size and variety, you'll help shape how Tech Ops works. When a system underperforms, clients will look to you for a clear answer.
We're looking for an experienced solar and storage professional who has worked both in the field and in the office, and who wants to work directly with clients and service partners.
What You'll Do
At Omnidian we believe in trust and autonomy. How you create an impact is ultimately up to you. Here is an outline of some of the things you’ll be doing:
Technical Expertise and Client Engagement (45%)
Operational Support and Field Coordination (20%)
Battery Storage, QA/QC, and Continuous Improvement (15%)
Strategy and special projects (20%)
Who You Are
Where Tech Ops is Headed
Tech Ops is more reactive today than we want it to be. We're putting defined processes around the work we repeat, and you'll help build them and lead parts of it.
Service visit review, scope drafting, quote review, inspection and commissioning review, and BESS alarm triage will each get a written procedure, an owner, and a quality check, so results don't depend on who picks up the ticket.
Many of our assets today range from a few hundred kW to a few MW. We expect to take on more mid-size and large systems, from 5 to 15 MW with some larger, including community solar, for QA/QC and service. Bigger sites mean more MV equipment and more utility involvement, and often larger storage. Over time we want this person to be our in-house lead on:
