OUR MISSION: ENABLE 80 MILLION TONNES OF ANNUAL CO₂ EMISSION REDUCTIONS BY 2045
About Greenstrides
Greenstrides is an energy-efficiency company with an ambitious mission: to enable 80 million tonnes of annual CO₂ emission reductions by 2045.
We believe many of the technologies needed to significantly reduce the world's energy consumption already exist. The challenge is getting them deployed at scale. Greenstrides identifies proven energy-saving technologies from around the world and accelerates their adoption across ASEAN and Australia.
Our solutions are selected around a simple principle: sustainability should strengthen business performance. We help customers reduce energy consumption, operating costs and carbon emissions while improving their bottom line.
Our Initial Focus
1. Restaurants & Commercial Kitchens
Intelligent modulation of kitchen exhaust and ventilation systems.
Improvement of electrical energy characteristics, including voltage, current, power factor and harmonics.
Reduction of refrigeration energy consumption through on-demand defrost and other optimisation technologies.
Monitoring, measurement and continuous improvement of energy performance.
2. HVAC & Cooling Systems
Electrical energy optimisation across cooling infrastructure.
Chiller and cooling-system optimisation, including AI-driven plant operation.
Technologies that improve heat transfer and cooling efficiency.
Air-side optimisation and control improvements.
Unique and patented technologies that improve the efficiency of existing cooling systems.
Rather than developing every technology ourselves, Greenstrides works with specialist technology companies around the world, combining proven solutions with strong local implementation capability to accelerate market adoption.
The Opportunity
We are looking for an Implementation Engineer who wants to build more than an engineering career. As an early technical hire, you will help translate innovative energy-efficiency technologies into real, measurable energy and carbon savings at customer sites.
This role is designed to evolve. You will start hands-on, learn the ground reality deeply, turn that experience into repeatable systems, train others, and progressively grow into a managerial role capable of building and leading implementation teams across regions.
Start Hands-On. Learn Deeply. Then Build to Scale.
During the initial years, this will be a deliberately hands-on role. Before you can build an implementation organisation, you need to understand implementation yourself.
That means being at customer sites, understanding panels, wiring, controls and equipment, working alongside technicians and contractors, commissioning systems, troubleshooting problems and discovering the practical issues that only become visible during real-world implementation.
Because many customers - particularly restaurants, hotels and commercial facilities - cannot interrupt operations during normal business hours, a meaningful portion of installations may take place at night or outside normal working hours. Candidates should be comfortable with nighttime installations, particularly during the initial years.
The purpose is not for this to remain a permanent night-installation role. The objective is to build enough field depth to identify the kinks, failure points and unnecessary complexity in implementation - and then engineer them out.
From Engineer to Manager
The longer-term objective is for the Implementation Engineer to move from personally executing and supervising implementations to building the capability for others to deliver them successfully.
As you gain experience, you will be expected to standardise and simplify Greenstrides' implementation model so that trained Implementation Executives, contractors and local technical partners can deploy solutions reliably across multiple markets, with senior engineering expertise providing oversight and escalation support.
Standardised site-survey and scoping procedures.
Installation methodologies, drawings and technical standards.
Commissioning and quality-control protocols.
Troubleshooting playbooks and escalation processes.
Training programmes and competency standards.
Remote technical-support and performance-monitoring procedures.

What You Will Do
Site Assessment & Engineering
Conduct technical site surveys at restaurants, hotels, commercial buildings and other customer facilities.
Understand existing electrical, refrigeration, ventilation, HVAC and control-system configurations.
Collect equipment specifications, electrical measurements, operating parameters and site data.
Review electrical drawings, single-line diagrams, control schematics and equipment documentation.
Identify suitable Greenstrides technologies and develop scopes of work and implementation requirements.
Solution Implementation
Translate site assessments into practical implementation plans.
Coordinate with customers, contractors, electricians, technicians and technology partners.
Supervise installation and integration of Greenstrides technologies.
Participate in testing, commissioning, handover and technical documentation.
Work hands-on alongside installation teams when required, including nighttime or off-hours work during the initial years.
Performance Monitoring & Troubleshooting
Monitor equipment and system performance after implementation.
Analyse energy-consumption and operating data.
Identify abnormal performance and troubleshoot technical issues.
Coordinate corrective actions with contractors and technology partners.
Support measurement and verification of energy savings.
Technology Transfer & Process Building
Participate in technical training and knowledge-transfer sessions with global technology partners.
Develop expertise across multiple energy-efficiency technologies.
Convert partner knowledge and field experience into practical deployment procedures.
Build Greenstrides' internal engineering standards, checklists, training materials and troubleshooting guides.
Continuously improve implementation so it becomes simpler, safer, faster and more scalable.
What Success Could Look Like
Phase 1 - Master the Ground Reality
Work hands-on alongside contractors and technology partners. Participate in site surveys, installations, commissioning and troubleshooting - including nighttime installations where customer operations require them. Build practical judgement by seeing what actually happens in the field.
Phase 2 - Build the Playbook
Turn field experience into repeatable processes. Standardise how Greenstrides scopes, installs, commissions, monitors and supports its technologies. Identify recurring problems and systematically remove them.
Phase 3 - Build the Team
Train and supervise Implementation Executives, contractors and technical partners. Move progressively from personally executing installations to technical oversight, quality assurance and escalation support.
Phase 4 - Scale Across Markets
Take increasing responsibility for developing implementation capabilities across Singapore, ASEAN and Australia - building local teams, developing implementation leaders and ensuring consistent technical quality across markets.
Who We Are Looking For
Diploma or Degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, Building Services, Energy Engineering or a related technical discipline.
Some practical engineering experience is preferred, but learning attitude, ownership and trajectory matter just as much.
Practical knowledge of electrical systems, motors, VFDs, control panels, HVAC, refrigeration or building systems is advantageous.
Comfortable working at customer sites and understanding how equipment actually operates.
Curious, resourceful and able to learn unfamiliar technologies quickly.
Comfortable analysing technical and energy data.
Clear communicator with customers, contractors and technical partners.
Willing to work hard and get hands-on, especially during the company's early growth phase.
Comfortable with nighttime and off-hours installations when customer operations require them.
Able to turn technical learning into repeatable processes that less-specialised implementation teams can execute.
Interested in developing from an individual technical contributor into a manager who can build, train and lead teams across regions.
Genuinely excited about sustainability and measurable environmental impact.
The Person Who Will Thrive Here
We are looking for someone with an unusual combination of engineering curiosity, humility, ownership and ambition.
In the beginning, you should be comfortable putting on your safety shoes and spending the night at a customer site figuring out why something is not working. You should want to understand not just what needs to be done, but why it works, what can go wrong and how the implementation can be improved.
But you should not want to remain the person who has to solve every problem personally. Your mindset should evolve from 'How do I solve this?' to 'How do I make sure our team never has to solve this problem from scratch again?' - and eventually to 'How do I build and lead teams that can deliver this successfully across hundreds or thousands of sites?'
That transition - from hands-on engineer, to systems builder, to people leader - is fundamental to this role.
Why Join greenstrides?
Build something from the beginning: help create the engineering and implementation capability that Greenstrides will scale across multiple countries.
Learn technologies from around the world: gain exposure across electrical systems, HVAC, refrigeration, controls, IoT and AI-driven optimisation.
Accelerated career growth: strong performers can grow into Implementation Manager, Engineering Manager or Regional Implementation Leader roles.
Learn in an entrepreneurial environment: Greenstrides is founded by entrepreneurs with experience building and scaling businesses across multiple international markets.
Make your engineering work measurable: successful projects translate directly into lower energy consumption, lower customer operating costs and lower CO₂ emissions.
Our Ambition
Less energy consumed. Lower operating costs. Lower CO₂ emissions.
80 MILLION TONNES OF ANNUAL CO₂ SAVINGS BY 2045
If you are an engineer who wants to learn quickly, work hands-on, take ownership, build systems and grow into leadership alongside an ambitious sustainability company, we would like to hear from you.
