  • Consultative Support: Participate in technical advisory meetings to guide clients through the certification process.
  • Commercial Collaboration: Assist the sales team in preparing accurate technical quotations based on project scopes.
  • Leadership (Senior Level): Mentor junior engineers and perform final technical reviews of draft reports.

Qualifications and Skills

  • Educational Background: A Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical, Mechanical, or Systems Engineering (or a closely related discipline).
  • For Recent Graduates: A Master's Degree in Electrical or similar Degree and strong academic record with a focus on laboratory work, technical writing, or research projects
  • For Experienced Hires: * Familiarity with standards for Hazardous Locations (such as the 60079 series ) or Ordinary Locations (such as 62368-1, 61010-1, or 60335-1) 1-3 years Experience
  • Practical experience in electrical and mechanical testing protocols.
  • Analytical Mindset: The ability to interpret complex regulatory language and apply it to physical hardware.
  • Communication: Excellent verbal and written skills for explaining technical requirements to non-technical stakeholders.

Benefits & Perks

  • Comprehensive Health: Competitive medical, dental, and vision insurance packages.
  • Financial Security: Life and disability insurance plus a 401(k) plan with company matching.
  • Work-Life Balance: Generous paid vacation time and recognized public holidays.
  • Career Development: Full training in international regulatory standards and opportunities for domestic and international travel.

We offer up to $1000 for successful referrals so let me know if anyine in your network could be interested.
