• Collaborate closely with manufacturers, EPCs, installers, network partners and technology vendors to align on technical requirements, integration approaches and delivery excellence.
• Drive continuous improvement through performance monitoring, operational insights and emerging technology trends, embedding safety-by-design principles and compliance with Australian Standards and market regulations.
• Champion innovation across the portfolio by identifying opportunities to enhance product performance, customer experience, grid integration and commercial outcomes through new technologies and delivery models.
