 The Agency Certification Engineer owns product safety certification and regulatory compliance for the Industrial Control product portfolio; control circuit devices, pilot devices, contactors, starters, overload relays, control relays, and related motor-control and industrial control products. Serving as the primary technical authority and agency liaison for UL, CSA, and IEC certification bodies. This role ensures new and existing products achieve and maintain certification, that plant audits and certification files stay compliant, and that no product launch or shipment is delayed by a compliance gap. It demands a fast, responsive operator who actively tracks every open certification task to closure and gives leadership real-time status, not periodic catch-ups. The position works across engineering, the test lab, manufacturing, and the agencies, acting as the single point of accountability for certification status, part hands-on technical authority, part program manager driving multiple certification efforts in parallel.

Certification ownership & responsiveness - Own end-to-end agency certification for assigned Industrial Control product lines, from gap assessment through file approval and ongoing maintenance. - Respond rapidly to certification questions, engineering change requests, and agency inquiries — treating compliance as a fast-moving service function, not a back-office queue. - Determine applicable standards (UL 60947 / UL 508, CSA, IEC 60947 series, and others) and define the test and evidence plan required for each listing. Task tracking & program management - Actively track every open certification task, submittal, and audit action through to closure with clear owners and due dates, so nothing lapses or stalls. - Manage multiple concurrent certification programs against committed dates, escalating risks early rather than reporting them late. - Maintain a portfolio-wide view of certification status, expirations, and risk, and report it to leadership on a live basis. NPI/NPD launch support - Serve as the certification gatekeeper in NPI/NPD programs, embedding certification milestones into the project timeline so Industrial Control launches are never delayed by compliance. - Review designs, components, and materials early to confirm certifiability and prevent late-stage rework. Agency & audit management - Act as the primary contact for certification agencies and field representatives, managing submittals, reviews, and follow-up. - Lead follow-up/plant audits, resolve nonconformances, and drive corrective actions to fast closure. Change & maintenance control - Assess product, part, and material changes for certification impact and process re-evaluations to keep listings valid. - Proactively renew certifications ahead of expiration to prevent any lapse in compliance. Leadership & visibility - Mentor certification and design engineers on standards interpretation and compliant design practice. - Build and maintain certification dashboards and trackers (Power BI / Jira / Excel) giving leadership real-time status, expiration risk, and audit-action visibility."     Qualifications:
