(Senior) Technical Product Manager Energy
At GALVANY, our goal is to make climate-neutral living a reality for everyone. We focus on execution - developing concrete, smart solutions and making heat pumps, battery storage, and smart metering easy to access, reliable, and affordable. GALVANY-Tech drives the energy transition through software. We're building an AI-based Operating System for sales, planning, installation and operation of heat pumps and integrated energy systems - from single-family homes to multi-unit buildings, and across our Energy Community as a Virtual Power Plant.
We are a profitable green-tech startup and believe that sustainable impact and long-term growth are only possible when grounded in a healthy business model. To implement our ambitious tech roadmap, we secured €10 million in seed funding from Set Ventures and AENU in the spring 2026. Driven by customer value, clarity, and responsibility, we stand for high-quality heating solutions and an environment where people take responsibility and drive lasting impact.
The Role
As Technical Product Manager (m/w/d) Energy at GALVANY, you own the heart of GALVANY FUSION - the Interaction Layer between Energy Market, Customer Comfort and Hardware. You define how our device fleet (heat pumps, batteries, EVs) becomes an active market participant - through EMS, VPP, Dynamic Tariffs and Grid Services. You translate the complexity of the energy market into products that create Continuous Savings and Recurring Revenue.
Responsibilities:
Own vision and roadmap for the Energy product surface - across EMS, VPP & Market Flexibility, Energy Data Engine, and Savings Engine.
Define optimization strategies and product logic for Heat Pump Load Shifting, Battery Self-Consumption and Arbitrage (Day-Ahead / Intraday), EV Smart Charging, aFRR and Flexibility Trading.
Translate energy market mechanics, e.g., Day-Ahead, Intraday, Balancing Power, EnWG §14a, into clear product requirements and engineering tickets.
Drive hardware and partner integrations across heat pumps, batteries, dynamic-tariff providers and connectivity - deciding what we build in-house versus what we integrate.
Work hands-on with engineering on EMS architecture, API integration, telemetry pipelines and forecasting models.
Define and own the KPIs that matter, e.g., €/asset/month, self-consumption ratio, flexibility revenue per battery-kWh, savings-stack contribution per use case.
Measure success, orchestrate sprints and releases, and navigate the four product risks (customer value, usability, feasibility, business value) with a particular focus on technical feasibility and regulatory constraints.
Support go-to-market for new energy products and pricing tiers in collaboration with Sales, Marketing and Customer Success - making complex energy economics tangible for homeowners.
Requirements
Experience. 5+ years of product management experience in high-performance environments - ideally in Energy-Tech, Industrial IoT or related domains (e.g. dynamic tariff providers, VPP operators, EMS/HEMS vendors, smart charging, balancing market players).
Energy Domain Track Record. Proven track record building energy products, e.g., EMS/HEMS, Virtual Power Plant, Battery Arbitrage, Smart Charging, Dynamic Tariffs or Balancing Markets. You understand the difference between Day-Ahead and Intraday and know your way around aFRR.
Background. Background in Energy Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Computer Science, Physics or comparable - or equivalent hands-on experience in an Energy-Tech company.
Technical Aptitude. Strong technical mindset: comfortable with Cloud-to-Cloud APIs, telemetry pipelines, time-series data, forecasting models and IoT-hardware integration. You can read a sequence diagram and challenge an engineer on it.
Track Record. Proven end-to-end responsibility in product development - from ideation through release and operation.
Mindset. Self-driven problem-solving mindset - no need for micromanagement or specific tickets.
Language. Fluent in English and German. German is non-negotiable here: market documentation, regulation and partner conversations happen in German.
Skills and Qualities That Are Important to Us
Outcome-Led. You focus on value over volume. You embrace iteration, adapt quickly to new information, and prioritize what moves the needle for business and user.
Systems Thinker. You see the bigger picture. You understand how EMS, VPP, Hardware and Customer Experience connect - ensuring features contribute to a cohesive, scalable energy system.
Pragmatic. You choose the simplest effective path to solve problems - especially by leveraging AI tools.
Domain Translator. You translate fluently between energy market mechanics, hardware reality and product decisions - and you make sure engineering, ops and customers all understand the same thing.
Customer Champion. You keep the end-user central in all decisions, even when working deep in the technical and market stack. You make complex energy economics feel simple and trustworthy.
Data-Informed Prioritizer. You use qualitative and quantitative signals - customer data, telemetry, market prices - to prioritize ruthlessly. You can articulate why not to build something.
Benefits
Strong Growth & High Impact. A unique opportunity to join during a hypergrowth phase and actively contribute to company success.
Compensation. Competitive salary and flexible perks (sports, mobility, learning) tailored to your needs.
Real-World Impact. Your work drives decarbonization - measurable in CO₂ savings, energy efficiency (kWh), and cost reductions (€).
Office. Prime location in Berlin Charlottenburg, regular company events and all-hands. We value in-person collaboration and connection, while partial remote work remains an option.
No Corporate Theater. Skip endless alignment meetings, politics and waiting for permission. You talk to the people who matter and ship.
