Job DescriptionSalary: $85,000 - $95,000 Exciting opportunity for a Software Product Support Engineer who will be responsible for formalizing, standardizing, supporting and scaling Future Energys software products! This role requires a technically proficient, experienced professional who proactively defines product configurations, operationalizes the product for scalable support, and develops documentation and training materials to empower internal teams and client success. Early-stage client interaction and site visits to understand real-world configurations will be essential, with an emphasis on eventual product enablement and support handoff. Some of the key responsibilities for this ON-SITE Michigan based role include: Responsibility #1 Product Definition and Standardization • Analyze and document Future Energy's CSMS (Charge Station Management System)platforms functionality and configuration options to establish company-wide default standards., • Establish OCPP configuration standards, default settings by client type (dealership, hospitality, fleet, workplace), and onboarding templates., • Assist in defining service tier configurations based on complexity and support requirements., • DocumentCSMSplatform capabilities and limitations and how they affect Future Energy products., • Configure driver mobile app features and notification settings; understand driver user flows to support configuration and troubleshooting., • Collaborate closely with clients during early implementation phases to understand real-world use cases and refine configuration settings., • Develop clear, detailed documentation and training materials for internal teams to enable scalable product support., • Formalize processes for ongoing product updates, configuration management, and client support handoff. Responsibility #2 Technical Expertise and Support • Act as the technical point of escalation for complex product-related client issues., • Diagnose complex OCPP connectivity issuesby analyzing communication logs and identifying protocol errors., • Design and implement load management configurations for multi-charger sites with electrical capacity constraints., • Provide deep technical knowledge of CSMS-to-EVSE (Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment) device integrations, including networking fundamentals (DHCP, VLANs, firewall rules, cellular/WiFi connectivity) and firmware update management., • Configure andtroubleshoot OCPP security profiles, manage server certificates, and ensure secure charging station communications using TLS/SSL protocols., • Manage API integrations with third-party systems (payment processors, CPO roaming networks, push notifications)., • Evaluate new integration requirements and determine platform capability gaps requiring engineering support. Responsibility #3 Client Interaction and Site Visits • Engage directly with clients during product rollout and configuration definition phases., • Conduct site visits as needed to observe, document, and resolve unique product scenarios not replicable in-house (network troubleshooting, power capacity analysis, operational workflow optimization)., • Support client escalations requiring high-level technical expertise and ensure positive outcomes., • Extract patterns from client-specific situations to build repeatable configuration solutions. Responsibility #4 Collaboration and Continuous Improvement • Work cross-functionally with Operations, Client Success, and Product teams to incorporate client feedback into product refinements., • Stay informed of industry best practices related to EV charging network operations, CSMS platform scalability, and managed services., • Advocate for process improvements that enhance product stability, usability, and supportability., • Identify when client requests should become standard platform features vs. remain custom solutions. If you have the skills to do this role, 3-5 years hands-on experience with CSMS platforms and commercial EV charging station deployment/support and know how to troubleshoot connectivity issues related to DHCP, DNS, firewall configurations, port forwarding, cellular/WiFi/Ethernet, this could be the career for you!!!
