Salary: USD 150,000 - 200,000 / annual
Amperesand is building intelligent, software-defined power infrastructure products based on advanced medium voltage Solid State Transformer technology. The company is addressing a critical infrastructure gap: electricity demand is skyrocketing due to AI data centers, electric vehicles, and industrial growth, yet the power infrastructure behind mega-projects hasn't meaningfully changed in nearly 100 years. Amperesand's products are faster to deploy, dramatically smaller and more efficient, and capable of supporting modern, dynamic energy needs for data centers, EV charging, renewables, microgrids, and industrial installations.
As a Senior Product Compliance Engineer, you will be a critical part of the product development process, getting ahead of engineering design decisions by identifying and interpreting applicable regulatory standards. You will work closely with product managers, firmware teams, hardware engineers, and third-party test agencies (such as TUV, UL, or CSA) to align product innovation with global certification paths.
Key responsibilities include:
• Standards Mapping & Interpretation: Identify relevant regulatory standards during product planning (e.g., UL 1741-SB, UL 2877, IEC 60730, IEEE 1547, NEC 705) and guide cross-functional teams on how to comply efficiently.
• Early-Stage Engagement: Engage early with product managers, firmware teams, and hardware engineers to de-risk compliance bottlenecks before they emerge downstream.
• NRTL Engagement: Build relationships and coordinate test and certification efforts with Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratories (e.g., TUV, UL, CSA) to secure certifications while advocating for interpretations favorable to Amperesand.
• Documentation Ownership: Develop and maintain compliance documentation including test plans, technical construction files, declarations of conformity, and certification roadmaps.
• Test Planning & Witnessing: Oversee and perform pre-compliance testing, witness formal certification testing, and support root cause analysis of any compliance issues.
You will represent Amperesand's interests with NRTLs, shaping how products are reviewed and helping ensure the company retains maximum design flexibility while achieving certification. This role requires deep familiarity with standards such as UL 1741-SB, UL 2877, IEC 62477, IEC 60730, and IEEE 1547, along with the technical understanding to guide teams through the practical implications of compliance decisions.
Amperesand is led by breakthrough energy hardware development veterans and funded by top-tier investors. The company has hubs in San Francisco, Reno, and Singapore, with a global team laser-focused on building foundational technology to solve the most pressing problems in power infrastructure at scale.
REQUIREMENTS:
The posting does not explicitly state years of experience or formal education requirements in the provided excerpt. However, the role requires deep familiarity with standards including UL 1741-SB, UL 2877, IEC 62477, IEC 60730, and IEEE 1547, along with technical understanding of power infrastructure, electrical engineering, and product compliance processes. Experience working with Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratories (NRTLs) and knowledge of global certification pathways are essential.
