Strategic Business & Product Development Lead

About this role

What if you could turn emerging signals in the energy market into entirely new products before the rest of the industry even sees them coming?
A fast-growing software company is building the infrastructure that quietly underpins how electricity is managed and exchanged in an increasingly dynamic energy system.
As the system becomes more complex and data-rich, entirely new commercial opportunities are emerging beyond the core product. This role is for a high-agency business builder who thrives in ambiguity—someone who can spot signals early, turn them into sharp hypotheses, and rapidly test what's real.
What you'll do

• Identify and develop new commercial opportunities adjacent to the core platform

• Work directly with industry stakeholders to uncover unmet needs and emerging use cases

• Translate market signals into clear, testable business cases

• Partner with technical and commercial teams to shape early concepts into scalable offerings

• Support early go-to-market efforts and strategic sales where needed

What you bring

• 5+ years in power markets, energy consulting, trading, or corporate strategy

• Proven ability to build or unlock new business opportunities in uncertain environments

• Strong network across the European power ecosystem

• Bias for action—comfortable moving quickly from insight to validation

• Familiarity with modern AI tools for rapid prototyping and testing ideas

• Strong communicator with the ability to influence senior stakeholders

Why this role

• High ownership, high impact, no predefined playbook

• Competitive compensation with equity upside

• Remote-first setup with occasional high-quality team offsites in Europe

• Opportunity to shape entirely new directions inside a fast-scaling climate tech company
