Compliance Engineer - Connected Products

Nusku is leading the energy transition by developing an innovative connected heating system designed to make the move away from gas boilers more affordable, practical and straightforward. Our mission is to reduce the carbon emissions associated with heating the UK’s approximately 29 million households, while reshaping how people think about home heating.

We combine innovation with practical engineering to develop products that are efficient, reliable and designed to integrate into everyday homes. By improving comfort for our customers and lowering energy costs, we aim to accelerate the UK’s journey to net zero.

We are looking for someone who is proactive, adaptable and willing to take ownership; combining both technical attention to detail with a practical engineering mindset towards software development, hardware design and product compliance.

As a Compliance Engineer, this role would suit someone who enjoys bringing compliance requirements into practical applications throughout the journey of product development, working alongside engineers to find proportionate solutions to compliance and cyber-security risks.

You should be comfortable understanding standards, reviewing software and hardware designs, establishing test requirements and challenge designs constructively with team members.

Most importantly, you will want your compliance skills to contribute to a mission that matters; helping Nusku bring a low-carbon heating solution into real homes.

As a Compliance Engineer, you will take ownership of product compliance activities throughout the development lifecycle, with a particular focus on software-controlled products, embedded controllers, connectivity and cybersecurity.

Working closely with our software, electronics, controls, hardware, testing and manufacturing teams, your responsibilities will include:

• Identifying applicable legislation, standards and certification requirements and translating them into clear product, software and hardware requirements.
• Developing and maintaining compliance and certification strategies for current products and future New Product Introduction projects.
• Producing compliance plans, test specifications, requirements traceability matrices, technical documentation and evidence to support CE/UKCA conformity and other product approvals.
• Reviewing embedded software, firmware, controller, electronics and connected-product designs to identify compliance and cybersecurity risks early in development.
• Planning, coordinating and carrying out verification and compliance testing, both in-house and with external test laboratories.
• Coordinating safety, EMC, RF and cybersecurity assessments, ensuring that testing and supporting evidence meet the applicable requirements.
• Investigating test and compliance failures with the relevant engineering teams and agreeing proportionate corrective actions.
• Assessing the compliance impact of software, hardware and product changes throughout the product lifecycle.
• Supporting effective configuration management, release control and the ongoing maintenance of technical compliance documentation.
• Building and maintaining productive relationships with test laboratories, certification bodies, cybersecurity specialists and, where applicable, UK approved bodies or EU notified bodies.

As part of a growing start-up, you will have the opportunity to shape Nusku’s approach to product compliance, cybersecurity and certification, establishing practical processes that support the safe and successful introduction of our products into customers’ homes.

We are a committed team, driven to improve the heat pump experience for our customers and reduce the carbon emissions of home heating. We expect you to share these…
