Director, Codes & Standards; Petaluma, CA,

Enphase Energy is a global energy technology company and a leading provider of solar, battery, and electric vehicle charging products. Founded in 2006, our innovative microinverter technology revolutionized solar power, making it a safer, more reliable, and scalable energy source. Today, the Enphase Energy System enables users to make, use, save, and sell their own power. Enphase is also one of the most successful and innovative clean energy companies in the world, with more than 80 million products shipped across 160 countries.

Enphase is now bringing its semiconductor-based, software-defined power conversion expertise to a new frontier: the IQ Solid-State Transformer (IQ SST), a distributed solid-state transformer platform for converting medium-voltage AC to regulated AC and DC power.

Solid-state transformers are ahead of the rulebook. The codes and standards that govern medium-voltage power conversion, high-frequency isolation, and DC power distribution in data centers are still being written - and whoever shows up to write them will define the certification path, the installation requirements, and ultimately who can sell into this market. Enphase intends to be that company.

We are looking for a senior codes and standards leader to own and drive Enphase's position across the regulatory and standards landscape for the IQ SST business. This is an external-facing influence role. You will be Enphase's voice on the committees, panels, and working groups where the rules for solid-state transformers and data center power are taking shape. You will anticipate what is coming, shape it before it lands, and translate it back into clear, actionable direction for our product, engineering, and certification teams.

You will build and work a network of committee chairs, testing laboratories (NRTLs), utilities, AHJs, data center operators, and peer manufacturers — and you will already know many of these people on day one.

• Define and drive Enphase's codes and standards strategy for the IQ SST platform - medium-voltage power conversion, high-frequency isolation transformers, DC distribution, and grid interconnection - aligned with our product roadmap and  pilot and volume timelines.
• Represent Enphase on the committees that govern this space, securing seats and leadership positions where it matters most, including: UL Standards Technical Panels for UL 1741 (including its medium-voltage revisions), UL 2877 and UL 347/347A (MV power conversion up to 38 kV), and UL 1562; IEEE working groups (IEEE 1547 series, IEEE PES Transformers Committee, emerging SST/power-electronics-transformer efforts); NFPA/NEC code-making panels covering Articles 450, 490, 705, and the data center articles (645/646);
  
  and ICC code development affecting data center construction.
• Lead where standards don't yet exist: identify gaps (e.g., high-voltage DC distribution in data centers, certification paths for SST architectures), initiate new standards projects or task groups, and drive industry consensus toward requirements Enphase products are designed to meet.
• Engage data center industry bodies - Open Compute Project (OCP) power work streams, NFPA 75/76 fire protection requirements, and operator technical forums - so the DC power architectures our customers specify align with the standards we help write.
• Author and champion proposals: draft code change proposals, standards revisions, comments, and ballot positions; build coalitions to get them adopted; lead floor debate and comment resolution.
• Engage utilities and interconnection proceedings on medium-voltage service and grid-interface requirements for SST-powered facilities, in partnership with our policy and business development teams.
• Shape the certification path: partner with NRTLs and our certification engineering team to establish practical, repeatable evaluation schemes for SST products, reducing cost and time-to-market for each generation.
• Monitor, interpret, and forecast: maintain a forward radar of code cycles, standard revisions, and rule makings; brief executives and product teams on what is changing, when it takes effect, and what we must do about it.
• Support AHJ and field acceptance: help resolve jurisdictional interpretation issues for early deployments and support training and outreach that smooth adoption.

• A recognized codes and standards professional in power electronics, medium-voltage equipment, transformers, or data center power infrastructure, with 10+ years of…
