What to Expect

Heron Power is a startup building cutting-edge power electronics for the 21st-century grid. We aim to debottleneck the growth of electricity generation and consumption with scalable, innovative, and lower-cost hardware solutions—accelerating the electrification of everything.

Our first focus is building better converters (inverters & rectifiers) to connect large-scale renewables, storage, and loads to the grid. Heron Power’s leadership team has designed and shipped gigawatts of power conversion products over the past decade. We’re a first-principles engineering culture that values momentum, rigor, and learning fast together.

Job Overview

Heron is building a software experience that makes power hardware easy to deploy, operate, and service at scale. The Software Product Manager will own the end-to-end software roadmap that supports Heron’s customer commitments across three core market applications: Solar, BESS, and Hyperscale AI Data Centers; spanning the full Heron Link lifecycle: commissioning → operations → service.

You will be the “connective tissue” between Commercial / Forward Deployed Engineering / Field Service and firmware & software engineering, ensuring we discover the right requirements, write excellent PRDs, make sharp tradeoffs, and ship reliable features that work in the field. Our pilot programs already span solar, storage, and data center deployments, and the product is progressing through compliance and hardened deployments (e.g., UL 1741, IEE2800, IEC 61850/62109, cybersecurity hardening) —this role is central to executing that trajectory.

In addition, you’ll own the software/service tooling strategy for Heron Care—our long-term service offering—defining the tools and features required to deliver service outcomes and scale operations

How You Will Contribute

• Own customer discovery + PRDs: turn field/customer input into crisp PRDs with clear why, success metrics, and rollout plan.

• Drive the roadmap across Solar, BESS, and Hyperscale Data Centers: prioritize, sequence, and communicate software requirements across commissioning → operations → service.

• Be the bridge between Commercial/FDE/Field Service and Engineering: translate commercial commitments into buildable specs; ensure pilots transition cleanly into scalable deployments.

• Define Heron Care software tooling: roadmap service features for monitoring, diagnostics, triage, and reporting to enable long-term service delivery at scale.

• Ship with high velocity and low process tax: run lightweight planning/launch rituals that increase clarity and execution without slowing the team.

What You Will Bring

We value clear thinkers who thrive in ambiguity, have a deep understanding of infrastructure markets, and are energized by building from zero.

Must Have Requirements

• 6+ years in product management (or closely related software/systems role) with ownership of shipped products.

• Strong ability to turn ambiguity into clarity: sharp prioritization, excellent PRDs, and clear tradeoffs.

• Proven cross-functional leadership bridging customer-facing teams and engineering to deliver on commitments.

• Comfort in technical, infrastructure-adjacent domains (commissioning, reliability, telemetry/observability, integrations).

• Working fluency with industrial integration concepts and common protocols (e.g., IEC 61850, Modbus, DNP3, OPC UA, MQTT).

• Startup mindset: high ownership, fast iteration, and strong written communication.

Nice to Haves

• Experience building software for power electronics, renewables, storage, EVs or data-center power infrastructure.

• Experience with commissioning tooling, configuration management, fleet management, telemetry/observability, and remote diagnostics.

• Familiarity with OT cybersecurity expectations and best practices for critical infrastructure environments.

If you are passionate about technology and enjoy working in a fast-paced environment, we would love to hear from you. Join us in accelerating the electrification of everything at Heron Power.

Heron Power provides competitive compensation (salary and equity) and benefits. The salary for this role ranges from $150,000 to $220,000 per year.
