The Regulatory Requirements Engineer is the technical bridge between the ever-evolving global regulatory landscape and Ford Energy's system engineering organization. This role owns the translation of complex, often ambiguous regulatory and code language (UL, IEC, NFPA, NEC, UN38.3, regional grid interconnection codes) into precise, testable, and traceable engineering requirements. The engineer acts as an early-warning system for regulatory risk, ensuring that BESS products are designed to pass certification the first time, avoiding costly redesigns, schedule slips, and market-access delays.

Build and maintain a jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction compliance matrix for all markets in which Ford Energy products are sold or deployed. ### Requirements Engineering & Traceability Decompose regulatory clauses into atomic, testable, unambiguous engineering requirements suitable for inclusion in the system requirements architecture. Own and maintain bi-directional traceability links from regulation → requirement → design element → verification test in the requirements management tool. Partner with the Requirements and Test Methods Authoring Engineer to ensure regulatory-derived requirements have corresponding validated test methods. Facilitate requirements walk-throughs with systems, electrical, mechanical, and software engineering leads. ## Qualifications You'll have...

Experience with grid-scale or automotive regulatory frameworks (UL 9540/9540A, IEC 62619/62933, NFPA 855). Strong technical writing and requirements management skills (DOORS, Jama, or similar preferred). Even better, you may have... Master's degree in Engineering or related field. Direct experience with stationary Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS). Prior experience working directly with UL, TUV, or other NRTL reviewers on standard interpretation.
