Drive program objectives and schedules, be calm in the face of uncertainty, and confident navigating ambiguity - unafraid to make the hard callsBachelors degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Industrial/Systems Engineering, Sustainability Science, or a related technical discipline 8 to 10 years of experience in product environmental compliance, ecodesign, energy efficiency regulation, or a closely related field within consumer electronics, hardware manufacturing, or a regulated industry Excellent and rigorous program management skills Demonstrated expertise with global ecodesign regulations and frameworks including EU ErP (Energy-related Products Directive), ESPR (Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation), EU Batteries Regulation, ENERGY STAR, EU Energy Labelling, and emerging repairability/durability scoring frameworks (e.g., France Repairability Index, EU Repair Score) Proven track record of leading complex, multi-stakeholder programs - including building project plans, managing schedules and dependencies, conducting risk assessments, and driving deliverables to completion Strong understanding of product lifecycle principles - including energy efficiency, material efficiency, design for disassembly, repairability, and end-of-life considerations as they apply to consumer electronics hardware Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to translate highly technical regulatory content into actionable guidance for engineering and business audiences Proficiency working with senior engineering leaders, and briefing executive audiences Demonstrated ability to influence without authority - aligning cross-functional teams (engineering, legal, operations, supply chain) around shared compliance objectives Willingness and ability to travel internationally (estimated 10-20%)MSME/MSEE or MBA preferred, but not required Direct experience implementing or evaluating products for compliance to EU ecodesign or EU energy regulated products regulations, particularly Monitors/Displays, Standby/Networked devices, External Power Supplies, computers, smartphones and tablets, or equivalent regulations. Develop and maintain comprehensive program plans - including schedules, milestones, Gantt charts, risk registers, and compliance implementation roadmaps - for regulatory initiatives affecting Apple hardware (e.g., EU Energy-related Products Directive (ErP) Lot 3, Lot 5, Lot 7, and emerging Lot X measures; the EU Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR the EU Batteries Regulation; Frances Repairability and Durability Indices; US state-level right-to-repair legislation; and Indias emerging e-waste and resource efficiency rules).
