EV Commissioning Engineer - AUS

The Opportunity:

Janus Electric is revolutionising heavy transport by converting diesel trucks to electric and building a national swappable battery network. We are scaling fast and need a skilled, detail-oriented EV Commissioning Engineer to help bring our next generation of zero-emission trucks to life at our Central Coast facility.

We are seeking for an EV Commissioning Engineer who will play a critical role ensuring batteries, charge stations and vehicles are built and tested to Janus quality requirements before release to customers, and providing ongoing aftersales technical support once vehicles are in service. The role is central to product reliability, keeping customers on the move with minimal downtime — both at commissioning and throughout the product's life in the field.

What You Will Do:

• Commission, test, and validate Janus swappable batteries, charge stations, and electric vehicles, flashing controllers with the latest software and updating configuration and calibration to suit customer requirements.
• Run through checks and support automation of the commissioning process wherever possible.
• Prepare quality check processes for build and commissioning using JIRA, and develop and document commissioning procedures and troubleshooting processes to create a benchmark for production.
• Troubleshoot and resolve technical issues by analysing problems, identifying solutions, and guiding clients through the necessary steps, acting as first point of contact for production engineering support.
• Implement and maintain the production engineering ticket system.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams — including Production, Quality Assurance, and Developers — to promptly resolve customer issues, and provide product training and guidance to production technicians.
• Provide aftersales technical support to dealers and customers, investigating field failures, warranty claims, and recurring issues through root cause analysis.
• Work with the Dealer Engagement and Development Manager and dealer network to resolve complex or escalated aftersales issues, documenting findings and recommending corrective actions.
• Track aftersales issue trends and report recurring or emerging problems to the Head of Engineering.

What You Bring:

• Bachelor's degree in engineering, computer science, information technology, or a similar field
• 3+ years' experience in commissioning or testing fixed plant or vehicle control systems.
• Technical understanding of complex hardware and software systems, or a demonstrated ability to quickly learn complex systems.
• Experience with dynamic control systems, electronics, and CAN bus troubleshooting.
• Strong issue resolution tracking, process improvement, and technical management skills.
• Excellent written, verbal, and presentation communication skills.
• Strong organisational skills, attention to detail, and the ability to plan and make decisions under pressure to meet deadlines.
• Desirable: CAN bus, PLC, vehicle controller, and diagnostic experience; project management experience; experience using JIRA or similar ticketing/quality systems; and experience conducting root-cause or failure investigations, including warranty claim analysis
