About the role

The ideal candidate brings hands-on experience in functional safety engineering, risk assessment, and certification, and can provide both technical expertise and structured leadership in achieving certification outcomes. Candidates must have experience in industrial functional safety, not just automotive, and should have a relevant TÜV or similar certification.
