I have a .eps file with a transparent background, that I'm trying to convert
to a .png file, but I need to preserve the transparency.

Does anyone have any advice on how to achieve this? It seems like a simple
goal. In fact, I'm surprised that a simple "convert image.eps image.png"
doesn't keep the transparency with no extra effort.

This issue has been discussed recently. (In fact, I asked the same question.) At least for vector EPS, the solution is

convert image.eps -channel RGBA image.png

or was it the other way round (?)

convert -channel RGBA image.eps image.png

As Anthony sai, you have to have an eye on the Postscript level (which should be 3) and to my opinion also on the IM version as I could not get that running in the latest version.
