EVBox - EV Chargers Embedded Software
Embedded Product
EVBox owned a portfolio of EV Charging solutions, spanning 3 technological generations and serving multiple geographical markets and use cases, requiring a high number of SKUs, thus complicating product support in software.

- Legal charge billing controller (Eichrecht)
- User Experience (GUI, events, HMI, RFID, backlight, etc)

In 2021 I was one among the first to receive a Scaled Agile certification so I could help deploy the SAFe v5 Portfolio method of working.
I worked at EVBox, as a remote manager, from October 2020 to December 2024, at which point the AC business was wound down, assets divested, brand re-incorporated in a new entity which proceeded to become the new solely DC-focused EVBox headquartered in Bordeaux France.
