Project Manager (m/f/d) Intelligent Metering Systems
The VDE , one of the largest technology organizations in Europe, has stood for innovation and technological progress for more than 130 years. The VDE is the only organization in the world to combine science, standardization, testing, certification and application consulting under one roof. For more than 100 years, the VDE mark has been synonymous with the highest safety standards and consumer protection. We are committed to promoting research and young talent and to lifelong learning with on-the-job training opportunities. In the VDE network, more than 2,000 employees at over 60 locations worldwide, more than 100,000 volunteer experts and around 1,500 companies are shaping a future worth living in the VDE network: connected, digital, electric. We are shaping the e-digital future.
We are preparing the energy system and electricity grids for the challenges ahead. We are committed to interdisciplinary and fact-based work and are open to new applications and ideas. We fight for consensus with passion. Our success is characterized by creating joint solutions despite differing interests.
Our daily bread is the smart meter rollout and the integration of renewable energies and new consumers such as wallboxes and heat pumps into our electricity grid. As an interface between politicians, authorities and the energy industry, we work day in, day out to roll out smart metering systems.
Our solutions are developed in individual project groups. In these groups, you will meet many people who are just as committed as we are. Help shape the digitalization of electricity grids with your commitment and make the new technology a model for success.
