Technical Operations Manager
Rebaba builds circular battery systems from second-life EV batteries. Our products power buildings, industries, and charging sites while reducing costs and emissions. We design and assemble our systems in Sweden and combine hardware, embedded electronics, and control with a strong mission: democratising access to clean, affordable and modern energy for all.
As we scale, we need a highly structured and driven Technical Operations Manager who can own technical project operations end to end, allowing our engineering team to focus on product design and development.
If you want to build technology that accelerates the energy transition and see your work deployed in the real world, we would love to hear from you.
You will be responsible for the full operational flow behind our battery system sourcing, production and deliveries. This includes documentation, sourcing, supplier management, certification process handling, high level electrical project engineering, logistics, and coordination across engineering, production, and installation. Your work will ensure that our projects run smoothly from start to finish and that all technical requirements are met.
This is a hands-on, detail-oriented role where you bring structure, clarity, and momentum to every delivery and the organisation as a whole.
