Operations Technician Photovoltaics

German-Speaking PV Monitoring & Technical Support Specialist

Help keep renewable energy running.

If you’re someone who enjoys solving technical problems, working with modern technology, and making a real contribution to the energy transition, this could be the opportunity you’ve been looking for.

Join a growing renewable energy business where your work will directly support the performance and reliability of solar PV systems. You’ll become the go-to person for monitoring installations, troubleshooting issues remotely, and helping customers get the most out of their systems. No two days are the same, and you’ll be part of a supportive team that values initiative, collaboration, and continuous learning.

Your Day-to-Day

In this role, you’ll be responsible for ensuring solar installations operate smoothly and efficiently by:

  • Providing remote support for the commissioning, maintenance, and troubleshooting of PV systems.
  • Monitoring system performance and identifying issues before they become problems.
  • Configuring PV systems within the company’s operations and maintenance platform.
  • Setting up and maintaining data loggers, routers, and communication equipment.
  • Creating, tracking, and documenting service tickets related to maintenance and repair activities.
  • Reviewing maintenance reports and coordinating follow-up actions where required.
  • Supporting customers with technical questions and delivering a high level of service.
  • Working closely with colleagues and external stakeholders to keep systems performing at their best.

What You’ll Bring

We’re looking for someone who combines technical expertise with strong communication skills and a proactive approach.

You could be a great fit if you have:

  • A qualification in IT System Integration, Renewable Energy, Electrical Engineering, or a similar technical field.
  • A solid understanding of photovoltaic (PV) systems and their technical design.
  • Fluent German (C1 level or native) and confident English communication skills.
  • A natural ability to solve problems and think in a practical, solution-oriented way.
  • Excellent organisational and documentation skills.
  • The confidence to work independently while remaining a reliable and collaborative team member.
  • A genuine interest in renewable energy and sustainable technologies.

What’s in It for You?

This is an opportunity to join a stable and future-focused company operating in one of the world’s most exciting industries.

Alongside a permanent position and competitive compensation, you’ll also enjoy:

  • Flexible working hours and the ability to work from home.
  • A trusting and supportive culture with flat hierarchies and genuine appreciation for your work.
  • The freedom to work independently and take ownership of your responsibilities.
  • Additional financial benefits, including enhanced pension and savings contributions.
  • Monthly lifestyle benefits that can be used across a variety of products, services, or fitness memberships.
  • Attractive employee discounts through a wide range of partner programmes.
  • Sustainable mobility benefits, including the option to lease e-bikes.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

This isn’t just another technical support role. It’s an opportunity to build your career in renewable energy, work with cutting-edge solar technology, and be part of a team helping shape a more sustainable future. If you’re looking for a role where your technical skills, independence, and customer focus will be truly valued, we’d love to hear from you.
