About the company:

⚡ envelio - Supporting the smarter, faster evolution of your power grid. 

We provide distribution grid operators with the Intelligent Grid Platform (IGP) – a software suite that brings all your grid data together to enable real-time decisions, long-term planning, and much, much more. 

With real-time digital twins, automated grid assessments, and live monitoring, IGP empowers DSOs to manage increasing infrastructure complexity, renewable integration, and growing power demand.

Our applications cover the full spectrum of operations and planning:
🔹 Process thousands of connection requests in minutes, not days
🔹 Detect grid congestion risks before they cause trouble
🔹 Simulate and plan new grid areas with confidence
🔹 Evaluate the grid impact of EVs, PVs, and heat pumps before they’re built

IGP integrates seamlessly with existing systems like GIS, NIS, SCADA, MDM, EDM and others – enhancing visibility without overhauling existing workflows. And because it’s modular, grid operators can start where they need impact the most.

Trusted by grid operators across Europe and beyond – from Westnetz to Helen Electricity Network and Eversource – envelio's IGP is setting new standards in grid management and planning, facilitating a smoother transition to renewable energies.

Your Role

As a Localization Operations Specialist, you ensure that our localization operations run smoothly, efficiently, and at scale. You work at the intersection of Product Design, Engineering, and our external language service providers who localize the IGP into 3+ languages. In this role, you will improve localization workflows, coordinate external partners, and implement multilingual updates to our platform and documentation.

How You Make an Impact

  • Planning and managing external localization cycles: You strategically plan external localization batches and ensure timely, high-quality deliveries.
  • Coordinating our language service providers: You manage the collaboration with our LSPs, including handoffs, queries, and QA loops.
  • Optimizing our localization toolchain: You continuously optimize the process chain between our localization tool CrowdIn and integrated tools like Gitlab and Figma to increase scalability.
  • Driving improvements in our localization processes: You refine our processes and tooling as you help shape our overarching localization strategy.
  • Handling wording requests: You proofread and translate strings in our platform, from small UI adjustments to entire apps. You collaborate with teams like Design, Product Management, and Engineering to find the best solution.

Your Profile

  • You hold a university degree in a field like translation studies, technical communication, language technology, or terminology management.
  • You have gained solid translation skills through your studies and possibly through projects, internships, or positions, and you are able to familiarize yourself with complex subject areas for translations.
  • You are confident using TMS platforms such as Trados, Phrase, or Lokalise. Experience with CrowdIn is a plus.
  • Ideally, you have prior experience in localization or translation management. Previous project management experience in other sectors is also an advantage.
  • You can work both strategically and in a hands-on way.
  • Ideally, you have a basic understanding of development environments (e.g., PyCharm, VS Code) and version control systems (e.g., Gitlab, Github), or you’re eager to learn.
  • Your translation languages are German and English.
  • You enjoy learning new skills and growing in a cross-functional environment.
  • You want to help shape a growing area of responsibility.

How we localize

  • Agile approach based on the Toyota Kata methodology: Together we define target conditions and refine our workflows through short, iterative steps.
  • Design-stage localization: We work closely with our designers to provide value early in the development process.
  • No MT/LLM workflows: Instead, we focus on clear guidelines and scalable, integrated localization processes. We use AI tools strategically where they add real value.

Your Benefits

  • Flexible working mode within Germany: Hybrid, from home or in our lovely office in Cologne 
  • Option for remote work from abroad (up to three months per year from anywhere in the EU or the USA)  
  • State of the art technology and modern tech stack 
  • Excellent hardware equipment (16 inch MacBooks, 2 screens at your workplace)  
  • Support for your health through sports membership cooperations  
  • Flexible use of a monthly mobility budget (e.g. Jobrad, public transport) 
  • Time and resources for individual growth  
  • envelio pension plan  
  • Regular company and team events
