Qualifications:

• A bachelor's degree in Electrical or Electronic Engineering or a comparable level of hands-on experience.

• A minimum of five years of experience performing compliance testing on power electronics or grid-interactive inverters.

• Hands-on experience with major standards like UL 1741, IEEE 1547, and IEC 62109.

• Demonstrated proficiency in successfully completing product certifications.

• Practical experience with both grid-interactive and grid-support standards and codes.

• Strong communication and documentation skills.

• Exceptional attention to detail, with the ability to interpret and apply complex technical standards.

• Proficiency in operating lab equipment, executing tests, troubleshooting issues, and reporting data effectively.

Responsibilities:

• Develop and execute engineering and pre-compliance test plans by interpreting and applying various standards, such as UL 1741, IEEE 1547, and IEC 61000 Series.

• Draft test plans that align with internal product design requirements, outlining grid and safety compliance needs.

• Configure test setups, including both hardware and firmware, process the resulting data, and submit findings for official certification.

• Conduct a wide range of tests, including those for electrical safety, fault response, environmental exposure, electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), and abnormal conditions.

• Operate and maintain a variety of lab instruments, such as oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, and grid simulators, as well as build, calibrate, and modify test fixtures.

• Generate comprehensive test reports and documentation, and serve as a technical liaison between the internal certification team and third-party NRTLs (Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratories) like UL and Intertek.

• Provide technical input for estimating testing efforts, identifying site requirements, and determining which standards are applicable.

• Work with cross-functional teams to troubleshoot test-related issues and contribute to a safer, more efficient, and accurate lab environment.

• Familiarity with energy storage systems, solar inverters, or other grid-tied power products is beneficial.

• Experience with automation and scripting for compliance testing, particularly with Python.
