This gives people the freedom and potential to travel into a more sustainable future. How neat is that?

Within just a few years, we've built our domestic market-leading position by supplying superior charging installations for housing co-ops and private homes alike.

As a Norwegian EV pioneer, our goals are aimed at bringing the best charging technology to the rest of the world. Are you up for this challenge?

At Zaptec, we build technology that powers the transition to electric mobility. Our charging solutions are used across Europe, and as the EV industry evolves, so do the standards and requirements surrounding our products.

To help us navigate this landscape, we're looking for a Compliance Lead Engineer who will play a key role in ensuring our products meet relevant regulations and standards. You'll work closely with our product teams, certification bodies, and external partners, helping translate complex requirements into practical guidance that supports innovation and safe product development.

• Ensuring compliance documentation such as certificates and test reports are updated and accessible.
• Monitoring regulatory developments and contributing to relevant industry forums and standardisation work.

Is this you?

You are curious about how technology and regulations evolve and enjoy staying informed about developments in the industry. At the same time, you're pragmatic and solution-oriented, helping teams move forward in a practical and structured way.

Some personal skills we value
