Senior/Staff Product Certification Engineer
TLDR
Own the certification roadmap for energy storage hardware, coordinating UL/Intertek/CSA compliance to accelerate safe product deployment.
Run the NRTL relationship. Serve as the primary point of contact for UL, Intertek, and CSA — managing project quotes, testing schedules, and technical file submissions.
Build the technical record. Prepare, review, and maintain comprehensive Construction Files, including schematics, BOMs, and critical component lists.
Manage testing end-to-end. Oversee and witness on-site and laboratory testing. Troubleshoot non-conformances and partner with R&D to engineer solutions that meet safety requirements without compromising performance.
Stay ahead of the standards. Track evolving codes (NEC, NFPA 855) and ensure our internal design guidelines reflect the latest versions of applicable industry standards.Standard
