Ocpp information

What is OCPP and what does an OCPP specialist do?

OCPP stands for Open Charge Point Protocol, an open communication standard used for exchanging information between electric vehicle (EV) charging stations and central management systems. An OCPP specialist is responsible for implementing, configuring, and maintaining OCPP-compliant software or hardware. They ensure seamless communication, troubleshoot protocol issues, and may support integration with payment or energy management systems. Their expertise helps charging networks remain interoperable and scalable as EV adoption grows.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an OCPP specialist?

To thrive as an OCPP Specialist, you need strong knowledge of electric vehicle charging infrastructure, networking protocols, and a background in software engineering or IT. Familiarity with OCPP standards, REST APIs, network security, and tools like Postman or Wireshark is typically required, along with relevant certifications in networking or EV charging technologies. Excellent problem-solving abilities, attention to detail, and effective communication skills help you troubleshoot issues and collaborate with cross-functional teams. These competencies ensure reliable integration and operation of EV charging systems, supporting the growth of sustainable transportation networks.

How does an OCPP specialist typically collaborate with cross-functional teams in the deployment of EV charging solutions?

An OCPP (Open Charge Point Protocol) specialist often works closely with software developers, network engineers, and product managers to ensure seamless integration of charging stations with backend management platforms. Daily responsibilities include troubleshooting communication issues, testing interoperability, and assisting with firmware updates. Effective collaboration is key, as OCPP specialists must translate technical requirements and resolve complex protocol-related challenges to enable reliable and scalable EV charging infrastructure. This role provides opportunities for career advancement into system architecture or project management as experience grows.

What is the difference between Ocpp vs EV Charging Station Technician?

AspectOcppEV Charging Station Technician
CertificationsNone required, but knowledge of networking and protocols helpsTechnical certifications in electrical systems or EV charging preferred
Work EnvironmentSoftware development, network management, and protocol configurationHands-on installation, maintenance, and repair of charging stations
Industry UsageUsed in communication between charging stations and management systemsInvolved in deploying and servicing charging stations in the field

Ocpp focuses on the software protocol enabling communication between EV charging stations and management systems, while EV Charging Station Technicians handle the physical installation and maintenance of the hardware. Both roles are essential in the EV charging industry but differ in skills and daily tasks.

This is not a fully remote position. Candidates must reside in the Greater Los Angeles area and be available for frequent site visits throughout Southern California, with occasional travel.
Commercial Electrical Construction Experience is a MUST. Prefer to have experience with EV Infrastructure 

Key Responsibilities
  • Conduct site walks and evaluate electrical, civil, utility, accessibility, equipment-placement, and constructability conditions.
  • Manage multiple EV charging/electrical projects from preconstruction through commissioning and closeout.
  • Review construction drawings, electrical single-line diagrams, equipment schedules, and specifications for scope, coordination, and constructability.
  • Coordinate electrical, civil, structural, utility, communications, and charging-equipment requirements.
  • Manage utility applications, service upgrades, transformers, permitting, inspections, meter installation, and energization.
  • Develop scopes of work, RFPs, bid packages, and contractor pricing requests.
  • Support contractor qualification, bid leveling, selection, negotiation, and onboarding.
  • Oversee contractors, consultants, suppliers, and commissioning teams.
  • Manage schedules, budgets, risks, RFIs, submittals, invoices, change orders, and project documentation.
  • Conduct field inspections for progress, quality, safety, code compliance, and consistency with approved plans.
  • Resolve field conflicts, design discrepancies, utility delays, equipment issues, and commissioning blockers.
  • Coordinate charger installation, network activation, testing, commissioning, and troubleshooting.
  • Manage punch lists, as-builts, warranties, inspection records, test reports, and closeout packages.
  • Report project costs, schedules, risks, milestones, and outstanding decisions.
  • Help standardize DynaChrg construction and project-delivery processes.
Required Qualifications
  • 7+ years of construction or technical infrastructure project-management experience.
  • Experience with electrical, EV charging, utility, renewable-energy, telecom, or similar infrastructure projects.
  • Experience managing projects from design/preconstruction through construction, commissioning, and closeout.
  • Ability to read construction drawings, electrical single-line diagrams, specifications, and technical scopes.
  • Working knowledge of commercial electrical distribution, including transformers, switchgear, panels, breakers, feeders, conduit, grounding, and metering.
  • Experience coordinating utilities, AHJs, engineers, contractors, inspectors, and suppliers.

  • Experience managing bids, RFIs, submittals, schedules, budgets, invoices, change orders, and closeout documentation.
  • Strong field problem-solving, organizational, communication, and stakeholder-management skills.
  • Valid driver’s license and reliable transportation.
  • Must reside in Greater Los Angeles or relocate before starting.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Level 2 or DC fast-charging project experience.
  • Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering, construction management, civil engineering, or related field; substantial relevant experience may substitute.
  • Experience with charging hubs, fleets, dealerships, multifamily, commercial, or public-sector projects.
  • Knowledge of utility service upgrades, transformers, switchgear, protection systems, load calculations, and single-line diagrams.
  • Familiarity with charger commissioning, OCPP, charging networks, energy management, battery storage, solar, or microgrids.
  • Knowledge of California permitting, accessibility, EVITP, prevailing-wage, rebate, or grant-funded requirements.
  • PMP, CCM, EIT, PE, OSHA 30, EVITP, or similar certification.
  • Experience with Bluebeam, Procore, Microsoft Project, Smartsheet, Salesforce, Asana, Sitetracker, or similar platforms.
Role Clarification
