NordicEPOD

NordicEPOD is building Norway’s next great industrial success story. We stand at the forefront of the technological revolution driving AI infrastructure across Europe and shaping the digital society of tomorrow. Our modular power units (EPODs) form the beating heart of data centers, powering the rapid global growth of artificial intelligence, cloud computing, and digital transformation. We deliver standardized, high-performance power systems that integrate UPS, switchgear, cooling, and monitoring technology – all developed with an uncompromising focus on sustainability, digitalization, and reliability. From our new 12,000 m² factory in Sande, near Oslo, we can produce up to 350 EPOD units per year, powered by Eaton technology and fully integrated digital processes. Since our founding in 2022, our growth has been remarkable, reaching revenues of more than NOK 1.8 billion in 2024. As we expand internationally with a new factory in Portugal, our ambition is clear: to become the leading provider of modular power infrastructure for data centers across the EMEA region.

That’s why we’re looking for forward-thinking, solution-oriented people to join us on this journey. At NordicEPOD, you’ll have the opportunity to shape an emerging industry, influencing how data centers are designed, built, and powered. With 170 colleagues today and rapid expansion ahead, our journey has only just begun. Together, we’re building something big: for Norway, for Europe, and for the future.

To support this rapid growth, we are now seeking a Project Manager to take a pivotal role in delivering large, high-value projects that are critical to both NordicEPOD and our customers. Each project can range from several hundred million to over a billion NOK, meaning that your ability to drive successful execution will have a direct impact on our customers’ operations and NordicEPOD’s continued success. This is a strategically important position where you will play a key role in shaping how complex, industrial-scale power systems are delivered – efficiently, safely, and with excellence.

In this role, you will coordinate input from engineering, supply chain, documentation, and site operations, establishing clear structures and accountability across all stakeholders. Working closely with customers, suppliers, and internal teams, you’ll ensure progress, alignment, and delivery quality throughout the process.

We’re looking for a structured and proactive project manager or consultant experienced in managing complex, multi-stakeholder environments – ideally with a background from management consulting or large companies within energy, construction, or technology. You combine strategic perspective with operational drive and thrive in dynamic, cross-functional settings.

If you’re curious, solution-oriented, and ready to build your career in one of Europe’s fastest-growing industrial tech companies, this is your opportunity to join us at the forefront of the data-center revolution.
