We sat down with Leon, a seasoned project manager in energy and charging solutions, to uncover what project management in digital engineering is really like. From the outside, it may appear structured and predictable—but the reality is far more dynamic. In fast-moving, high-stakes projects, success demands constant adaptability, rapid decision-making, and a sharp focus on the bigger picture. As Leon puts it, “Forget the textbooks—sometimes the first thing to go is the plan itself.”.

The Hidden Work You Don't See

So, what's the secret to a successful project? According to Leon, a huge part of his job is something most people don't even see: “coordinating the interaction between different departments and interest to create the functioning overall project.” When you look at a finished energy storage system, you're not thinking about the complex web of supply chains and technical problem-solving that happens behind the scenes. It's this complex coordination that ensures everything comes together at the right time and in the right place.
