Zusammenfassung

Heron Power is a dynamic startup building cutting-edge power electronics for the 21st-century grid. We seek an Engineering Program Manager to own the technical execution of the product roadmap from architecture through manufacturing launch.

This role is hands-on and technically deep, collaborating with power electronics, firmware, systems integration, test, and reliability teams to translate architectural intent into executable plans, surface risks early, and drive clear decisions.

Qualifikationen

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering (power electronics focus strongly preferred).
• 5+ years leading complex, multidisciplinary engineering programs, ideally involving power electronics, embedded firmware, or tightly coupled hardware-software systems.
• Strong technical foundation in power electronics systems, with ability to understand converter architectures, control strategies, and system-level tradeoffs.
• Demonstrated ability to work deeply with firmware/software teams, including understanding control loops, timing constraints, interfaces, and hardware-software dependencies.
• Experience driving programs from concept through validation and manufacturing launch, including prototype builds and design iterations.
• Strong grasp of DFM principles and realities of building, testing, and scaling power electronics hardware.
• Proven ability to distill complex technical programs into clear risks, decisions, and priorities for both engineering and leadership audiences.
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to influence across engineering, operations, and leadership teams.

Aufgaben

• Own and drive end-to-end technical execution of Heron Power’s first product launch, translating system-level goals into milestones across concept, architecture, validation, and launch.
• Drive deep coordination between power electronics, firmware/software, and systems integration teams, ensuring roadmaps are aligned and risks are actively managed.
• Lead program planning and execution across hardware design, embedded firmware, controls, test, reliability, compliance, supply chain, and manufacturing.
• Partner with technical leads to define product requirements, validation strategies, and decision gates with clearly documented tradeoffs.
• Facilitate and contribute to technical design reviews, including architecture reviews, design readiness reviews, and validation readiness reviews.
• Own engineering BOM strategy and NPI readiness, balancing performance, cost, availability, and manufacturability.
