Case Study: How a DC Fast Charging Company Hired a Manufacturing Quality Engineer in Record Time

EV Employers By EV.Careers Published on November 6, 2025

When one of the country’s leading DC fast charging manufacturers needed to expand its Midwest operations, they were ready to take production quality to the next level.

But there was one problem—finding the right person to lead that effort.

The role required someone who could handle the precision of manufacturing, understand the pace of EV production, and bring a problem-solving mindset to the table. In other words, no easy task.

Client Challenge: A Great Role in a Tough Location

The Midwest has many strengths—but a deep pool of EV manufacturing engineers isn’t one of them.

Our client had been searching for weeks, running into the same issues over and over:

  • Plenty of engineers, but few with EV or high-voltage production experience
  • A limited local talent pool, making relocation a must for most qualified candidates
  • HR teams are juggling too many openings to give this critical role the attention it needs

They needed results—and fast.
