EV Charging Technical Lead | Al-Futtaim Automotive - BYD | KSA

Role Summary

Overview of the Role

The EV Charging Technical Lead would be responsible for the managing Al-Futtaim's EV Charging infrastructure (Home Charging & Flash Charging) across the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The role operates at the intersection of hands-on site execution, contractor governance, and structured technical reporting, ensuring every charger deployed under the Charge2Moov network is installed, commissioned, and maintained to OEM and regulatory standards.

Reporting to the Senior Manager – EV Charging, the position acts as the single point of technical accountability between field contractors, internal commercial and aftersales stakeholders, and KSA regulatory bodies including SE, SASO, and MOMRAH. The Technical Lead directly influences network uptime, customer satisfaction, and the scale-out roadmap of Al-Futtaim's EV charging ecosystem — a strategic pillar of the brand's KSA EV proposition.
