  • Preparing technical reports; effectively interpreting and communicating tests results to clients and management team.
  • Managing project schedules to ensure deadlines are met.
  • Managing concurrently a portfolio of customer projects.
  • Interfacing directly with customers.
  • Communicating with all levels of management both internally and externally.

• Approximately 10% international and domestic travel for on-site testing.

BS Electrical Engineering or BS Electro-Mechanical Engineering is required.
  • Minimum of 3+ years related experience, preferably in product development or testing of electrical equipment.
  • Demonstrated experience with process and/or industrial control equipment and industrial control systems.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
  • Strong managerial, organizational, client facing, and customer service skills.
  • Experience in project/time management and the ability to prioritize job duties and multi-task in a fast paced environment.
  • Proficiency in MS Office applications.
  • Familiarity with third party product certification and industry standards such as FM Approvals, IEC and CSA International is desirable.
