As Akuo continues to scale, the OT function is undergoing a major transformation, evolving into a structured organization built around three complementary pillars

Joining as an OT Project Manager, you will take on a strategic and transversal role, with direct exposure to complex international projects and high‑impact technical decisions.

• You act as a central interface, coordinating internal and external IT/OT experts and working closely with integrators, contractors, grid operators and suppliers.
• You establish clear governance and reporting, ensuring reliable follow‑up of milestones, validations and associated payments.
• You secure a smooth handover to Operations, guaranteeing quality deliverables and operational readiness.

Beyond new projects, you will also lead revamping and compliance initiatives on existing power plants, addressing hardware obsolescence and technological upgrades — from cost estimation and planning to stakeholder coordination.
