AssetCool is one of Europe’s fastest-growing startups, building the fastest path to more power on the grid.
We’re tackling one of the most urgent challenges in the global energy transition: grid congestion. Electricity demand is rising fast; driven by electrification, AI and data centres. While traditional grid upgrades take years, demand exists today. The grid isn’t ready.
AssetCool delivers robotic grid upgrades that physically increase the capacity of existing transmission lines by up to 30%, without rebuilding infrastructure. Using advanced robotics and proprietary photonic coatings, we unlock data‑centre‑scale capacity in weeks to months, not years and at a fraction of the cost and disruption of conventional approaches.
Our technology goes beyond capacity. We reduce losses, prevent corrosion, cut corona noise and generate high‑value operational data that supports smarter grid operation and maintenance. Our systems are already deployed globally, and we just raised a big funding round from leading energy and climate investors.
Role Overview
We are hiring a Project Engineer to support the delivery of major commercial deployments by coordinating technical documentation, reporting, and task tracking. These projects involve field deployment of our in‑house robotic systems and specialist coatings across power networks. Based within the Applications Engineering team, you’ll be responsible for making sure the day‑to‑day delivery work is organised, well‑documented, and progressing. This is not a management role — it’s a hands‑on, detail‑oriented position ideal for an early‑career engineer looking to develop practical project experience while working on world‑first technology.
Key Responsibilities
- Project Delivery and Coordination: carry out day‑to‑day coordination tasks, update and maintain project plans, follow up with internal teams and suppliers to ensure tasks are completed on time.
- Technical Administration and Documentation: prepare and maintain technical documents, drawings, and deployment records; collate and organise evidence for grant claims and project reporting; assist with producing RAMS, test reports, and handover documentation.
- Communication and Collaboration: support internal coordination across engineering, operations, and field teams; help schedule meetings, take notes, and follow up on actions; communicate clearly with delivery partners and vendors to share information and chase updates.
- Process and Reporting Tools: use project management tools to record progress and highlight delays or issues; maintain version control and document filing for all technical records; identify simple process improvements to help the team work more efficiently.
Required Skills & Experience
- Engineering degree or equivalent technical background (e.g., Mechanical, Electrical, Civil, Aerospace).
- Strong organisational skills and attention to detail.
- Confident with spreadsheets, trackers, and document editing tools (e.g., Excel, Word, Google Docs).
- Strong written and verbal communication skills.
- Able to take ownership of tasks and see them through to completion with a high degree of autonomy.
- Comfortable chasing updates, following up actions, and keeping records tidy and accurate.
Preferred Skills & Experience
- 2+ years’ experience in a technical or project support role.
- Familiarity with project management tools such as ClickUp.
- Experience preparing technical documentation, reports, or engineering admin.
- Exposure to engineering delivery environments (e.g., infrastructure, manufacturing, robotics, utilities).
Benefits
- Work on groundbreaking technology revolutionising the power grid.
- Fast‑growing startup with significant industry traction and large‑scale projects.
- Collaborative, innovation‑driven team with exciting career growth opportunities.
- Competitive salary, and flexible work options.
We may close this vacancy early if we receive a high volume of applications.
