The posting

WHAT TO EXPECT

Heron Power is a startup company building cutting-edge power electronics for the 21st-century grid. We aim to debottleneck the growth of electricity generation and consumption with scalable, innovative, and less costly hardware solutions, accelerating the electrification of everything.

Our first focus goal is to build better converters (inverters & rectifiers) to connect large-scale renewables, storage, and loads to the grid. Heron’s leadership team is made up of seasoned veterans who have designed and shipped gigawatts of power conversion products over the past decade.

We understand that no one individual knows everything. We will all learn a lot together and from each other. We strive to build a collaborative, enriching environment conducive to personal, technical, and career growth. You can expect to work in a dynamic and collaborative environment, driven by first principles engineering, solving difficult problems.

JOB OVERVIEW

As a Senior Compliance Test Engineer you are responsible for identifying all regulatory and technical hurdles Heron’s products must clear on the path to market. Then, in collaboration with the design engineering team, will demonstrate Heron's products meet or exceed all requirements, achieve all certifications, and successfully enter target markets.

HOW YOU WILL CONTRIBUTE

- Interpret UL, IEC, ISO, and other regulatory requirements and translate them into test plans, test procedures, and pass/fail criteria that support Heron’s certification for each product and new market entry.

- Plan and run safety, performance, and environmental compliance testing, including dielectric withstand, partial discharge, impulse, insulation resistance, temperature rise, abnormal/fault, and grid-interconnection tests.

- Run pre-compliance testing in-house to find design issues early and lower the risk of formal certification.

- Coordinate and support witness testing, TPTDP, and CTDP programs with NRTLs and third-party labs, acting as Heron’s technical point of contact during test campaigns.

- Write clear, traceable test reports, data packages, and certification evidence that meet NRTL and ISO/IEC 17025 expectations.

- Design, build, and validate test setups, fixtures, and automation for MV and HV power electronics.

- Find and analyze test failures with design engineering, and drive root cause analysis and corrective action.

WHAT YOU WILL BRING

We have a short list of must-have requirements. We prioritize candidates with a strong grip on first principles, hands-on skills, and initiative.

Must-Have Requirements

- Undergraduate degree in electrical engineering, mechanical engineering or equivalent

- 5+ years' experience in regulatory and compliance certification for solar, wind, battery or other power electronics products

- Working knowledge of standards such as UL 1741, IEEE 1547, IEEE 2800, IEC 62477-1, UL 347, or similar.

- Experience with HV test equipment (hipot, PD systems, impulse generators), power analyzers, oscilloscopes, and data acquisition systems.

- Experience working with NRTLs (UL, CSA, TÜV, Intertek, etc.) on certification projects.

- Strong technical writing and documentation skills.

- Ability to thrive in ambiguity, relying on your first principles engineering experience to identify creative solutions to hard problems.

- Capability to remain engaged, proactive, and positive under pressure, owning assignments and taking full accountability

- Effective communicator and negotiator with excellent attention to detail.

- Hands on experience designing and operating test equipment and data acquisition systems, such as oscilloscopes, power and spectrum analyzers, data loggers, etc.

Nice-to-Haves

- Experience designing or testing medium-voltage systems (e.g., 5kV–35kV), including insulation coordination, clearance/creepage, and partial discharge considerations.

- Experience with manufacturing processes and material selection for high-power assemblies (e.g., busbars, potting, conformal coating, HV connectors).

- Experience developing DFMEA, PFMEA and HARA for complex hardware design and manufacturing environment

- Experience participating in product-relevant standards committees

- Hands-on experience with test automation using Python, LabVIEW, or embedded scripting for power hardware validation.

If you are passionate about technology and enjoy working in a fast-paced environment, we would love to hear from you. Join us in accelerating the electrification of everything at Heron Power.

Heron Power provides competitive compensation (salary and equity) and benefits. The salary for this role ranges from $120,000 to $150,000 per year.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
