Product Manager Station Design

**What do we do ?**:
**Born in 2021 from the desire to make cities less polluted and less noisy**, Electra is helping to shift usage towards electric mobility by tackling the main obstacle of recharging.

**Electra is constantly innovating to facilitate the recharging of electric vehicles with a network of fast recharging hubs (15 to 30 minutes maximum) and a user experience simplified to the maximum.**

Based in Paris, Lyon, Brussels and Milan,
**Electra's teams aim to deploy a network of 8,000 charging points by 2030**; proud to participate in the energy transition in France and Europe. For cities without noise and pollution

**In 18 months we have**:

- Provided more than 80 charging points
- Opened several offices in France and Europe
- Raised €175 million
- Gathered a team of 80 talents... and this is only the beginning: join us
- Joined The French Tech Next 40

**Yours Missions**:
**Why is this opportunity being created ?**

In the market today, the charge experience is usually very steep and functional. Users usually complain about a mínimalist experience (no roof, no services) and even a poorly designed station (no enough space, cables too short for their vehicles).

Leveraging both digital (app, supervision) and physical (station, IoT) products,
**Electra has the ambition to create the best charging service in Europe.** The design of the stations is a cornerstone of this experience. This is why Electra is building a new team dedicated to the design of the stations.

**Main challenge**:
As a
**Product Manager** in charge of the
**Station Design** will need to optimise the station upon 3 criteria: the charge experience, the technical feasibility and cost-optimisation, and the attraction of traffic. By doing so, you will need to coordinate different types of ressources at Electra (Designers, Architects, Project Managers, Realization Managers) and align different senior stakeholders within the organisation.

**Responsibilities**:

- **Be responsible** for the design of the stations, in accordance with Electra Brand, budget and feasibility constraints, tenders specificities.
- **Be the point of coordination** with the different Electra teams involved, in particular the Operations team.
- **Beyond the stations,** the PM will define the charging concept to create a unique experience, pitch them in large tenders.
- **The PM is accountable** on the management of the complete product cycle, from defining the concept to it’s the realization, liaising with external sub-contactors and internal stakeholders.
- **Be responsible** to transpose the station design on the different geographies of Electra, with the local management.

**Main tasks on a daily basis**:
The station design will go through Electra’s product framework : Discover Define Design Deliver

**Discovery**:

- **Perform** an active market watch of the competition
- **Collect** feedbacks from users though interviews, data analytics, observations, NPS, to improve the station
- **Active** industrial player watch
- **Perform** continuous improvement

**Define**:

- **Define** the concept of the stations
- **Understand **the technical constraints (civil engineering, urbanism, electrical engineering) and functionnal constraints to incorporate them in the definition of the solution
- **Design** the user journeys in station through experience maps

**Design**:

- **Collaborate** with designers and architects to create the station “modules”
- **Find** industrial partners for realisation when required

**Delivery**:

- Contractualise with industrial partners
- Perform the project management upon delivery

**Your profile**:
You have 3 years in a similar position with an engineering or business school education.

You understand or have an appetite for technical constraints (civil engineering, installation). And you are able to lead technical and commercial discussions with industrial partners.

You are able to optimize opposing objectives: experience, feasibility, cost, traffic.

You have a strong leadership to push your topics, and you’re pragmatic in the chosen solutions: “done is better than perfect”.

You speak French & English fluently.

You are sensitive to current energy and environmental issues.

You are motivated to join a start-up company in full construction.
