Hydrogen Project Engineer Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Envision Group is a global Greentech company operating across Europe, North America, and Asia. Guided by our mission to "solve challenges for a sustainable future," we design, sell, and operate smart wind turbines while advancing green chemicals to reduce the global carbon footprint. We are committed to wind and solar power, electric batteries, and Green Hydrogen - with the goal of building a zero-carbon world.

Green Hydrogen is central to our net-zero strategy. Where conventional hydrogen production generates significant CO emissions, our technologies use renewable energy and water to produce hydrogen emission-free. We are dedicated to improving efficiency, reducing costs, and scaling manufacturing to meet growing global demand.

We are seeking a Project Manager to join the H2 Center of Excellence (COE) R&D team in Burlington, MA. In this role you will own the planning, execution, and delivery of hydrogen technology innovation projects - spanning electrolyzer product development, materials research, system integration, and pilot-scale demonstrations. You will coordinate across engineering, chemistry, manufacturing, procurement, and product management disciplines, and serve as the primary bridge between our U.S. and Asia-based engineering teams.

You will report to the H2 COE Program Director and work closely with a cross-functional team of engineers, scientists, and global operations partners to bring green hydrogen technology from concept to commercial scale.

1. Project Planning & Execution

• Develop detailed project plans, schedules, milestones, and resource allocations for R&D initiatives.
• Define project scope with technical leads and ensure alignment with the product roadmap and strategic goals.
• Manage project risk logs, mitigation plans, and contingency scenarios.
• Track progress using structured stage-gate, Agile, or hybrid R&D processes appropriate to the project phase.

2. Cross-Functional Coordination

• Facilitate collaboration across mechanical, chemical, electrical, controls, and materials engineering teams.
• Coordinate with Product Management to align R&D outputs with customer requirements and commercialization timelines.
• Partner with Procurement and Supply Chain to secure specialized equipment, components, and lab materials.
• Serve as the primary liaison between U.S. and China engineering teams, ensuring clear, timely, and culturally-informed communication.

3. Technical Program Leadership

• Review engineering documentation, experiment plans, test data, and design revisions to ensure alignment with project objectives.
• Lead problem-solving sessions and root-cause analysis when technical challenges arise.
• Support definition and execution of Engineering Validation Testing (EVT), Design Verification Testing (DVT), and pilot deployment testing for electrolyzers and hydrogen systems.
• Ensure IP documentation, data-sharing protocols, and design records are maintained in accordance with company policy.

4. Safety & Compliance

• Ensure all R&D activities meet safety regulations, hazardous materials handling standards, and company EHS policies.
• Maintain documentation for risk assessments, safe operating procedures (SOPs), and incident reports.
• Partner with lab managers and EHS teams to maintain safe working environments across chemical labs, test bays, and pilot sites.

5. Budget & Reporting

• Prepare and manage project budgets, forecasts, and procurement plans.
• Track R&D spending, material consumption, prototype costs, and vendor expenses.
• Present regular status updates, KPI dashboards, and risk assessments to senior leadership.
• Support government grant or program reporting where applicable (e.g., DOE, ARPA-E).

6. International & Supplier Collaboration

• Manage timelines and deliverables from external partners, testing labs, research institutions, and component suppliers.
• Coordinate logistics for prototype manufacturing, shipment, installation, and field testing.
• Ensure documentation, IP, and data-sharing protocols are followed across all external partnerships.

7. Documentation & Continuous Improvement

• Maintain structured project documentation aligned with engineering quality systems.
• Support development of standard procedures, design records, BOMs, test reports, and lessons learned.
• Drive continuous improvement in R&D project execution through retrospective reviews and process refinement.
