Job Description:
Technical Support Engineer
Thailand — Renewable Energy Sector
Recruitment partner: Evantis Talent Solutions
About Our Client
Evantis Talent Solutions is partnering with a global manufacturer in the clean-energy and power-electronics sector to appoint a Technical Support Engineer in Thailand. The hiring organisation operates internationally with a strong regional presence in Southeast Asia and supplies technology used in residential and commercial renewable-energy projects. The full client identity will be shared with shortlisted candidates under confidentiality.
The Role
This is a mid-level technical role supporting customers, distributors, and installers across Thailand. You will act as the in-country technical point of contact — helping design appropriate solutions, training partners, and resolving issues on existing installations. You will work closely with regional account managers and the international headquarters team.
Key Responsibilities
• Provide first-line on-site and remote technical support to customers across assigned regions in Thailand.
• Support system design for solar PV, battery storage and related accessories, using both proprietary and third-party design tools.
• Deliver technical presentations alongside account managers to help progress and close opportunities.
• Run technical training sessions for distributors, installers, customers, and internal teams.
• Prepare local technical documentation including procedures, specifications, and presentations, adapted from headquarters materials.
• Troubleshoot and resolve technical issues across new and existing installations.
• Handle service calls and after-sales technical requests in a timely, customer-focused way.
• Support additional technical projects and assignments as directed by the regional management team.
Qualifications & Experience
• Open to Thai nationals only. Candidates must already hold long-term legal working eligibility in Thailand; the hiring organisation is unable to sponsor work permits or social security registration.
• Native or fluent Thai, with the ability to communicate confidently with local customers and deliver technical training to distributors and installers.
• Strong business-level English is essential, for day-to-day collaboration with international colleagues, the regional team, and headquarters.
• Approximately 3–5 years of hands-on experience in solar PV technical support, with a clear focus on residential applications.
• Demonstrable experience in residential system design, solution configuration, commissioning, and after-sales technical support.
Required Skills
• Solid working knowledge of solar modules, inverters, battery storage systems, mounting structures, commissioning, and troubleshooting.
• Strong customer-service mindset, with the ability to advise installers and resolve technical issues efficiently.
• Comfortable using common business tools such as ERP/SAP, Outlook, MS Teams, and CRM platforms.
• Willingness to travel regularly within Thailand and occasionally to other markets in the region.
• Comfortable working within an international, matrix-style organisation with headquarters teams in another time zone.
Preferred
• Working knowledge of Mandarin Chinese is a strong plus, to support collaboration with headquarters technical teams.
• Exposure to battery energy storage systems in a residential context.
• Familiarity with Thailand’s electricity market regulations and renewable-energy incentive policies.
• Flexibility for regular business travel.
• Valid driver’s licence (frequent customer and site visits).
Important Information for Applicants
The successful candidate may be engaged through an authorised third-party HR partner; however, you will be recognised as a full member of the hiring organisation’s team.
