Head of Engineering
Summary
We’re looking for a Head of Engineering to join HeyCharge and lead the development of our groundbreaking EV charging technology. You’ll oversee the architecture, planning, and execution of our full product ecosystem — from embedded firmware and hardware to mobile apps, backend systems, and web front ends. Your leadership will ensure that HeyCharge’s technology remains secure, scalable, and years ahead of the competition. This is not a “people manager in a corner office” role — you’ll be a hands-on technical leader who moves fluently between domains, supporting team members working on BLE firmware one moment and Flutter SDKs or backend APIs the next. You’ll set technical direction, build and mentor a world-class engineering team, and drive the systems that power reliable EV charging everywhere — even offline.
About HeyCharge
HeyCharge is a Munich-based startup on a mission to make EV charging more accessible, reliable, and affordable. While hardware is required for EV charging, it’s incidental to our core offering: our powerful platform simplifies the entire lifecycle of EV charger management. From installation and billing to monitoring and load management, HeyCharge enables property operators to offer EV charging as an amenity without the complexity. As a full-service Charge Point Operator (CPO) in Germany, we work with leading property owners and asset managers to deliver turnkey charging solutions. At the same time, our patented SecureCharge technology powers a global platform, allowing other CPOs and OEMs to build their own services with offline-capable, cost-effective, and secure charging infrastructure. With backing from leading investors (including Y Combinator) and a growing international footprint, HeyCharge is scaling rapidly across Europe and beyond.
