- 5+ years of hands-on regulatory, EMC, RF, safety, or wireless compliance testing experience
- Demonstrated ability to create test plans, define test coverage, organize complex test programs, and make sound technical decisions with limited supervision.
- Strong working knowledge of EMC and RF test instrumentation, including spectrum analyzers, network analyzers, oscilloscopes, signal generators, antennas, coupling clamps, field probes, ESD simulators, power supplies, and product monitoring tools.
- Experience with EMC test automation and laboratory software such as EMC32, Nexio, BAT-EMC, Keysight tools, or similar systems.
- Ability to interpret regulatory standards, apply them to new product architectures, and translate requirements into practical internal test procedures and policies.
- Hands-on experience debugging radiated and conducted emissions, immunity, wireless performance, product configuration, and communication monitoring issues.
- Working knowledge of analog and digital electronics, electromagnetic theory as applied to EMC testing, and common communication interfaces such as Ethernet, USB, CAN, LIN, and wireless protocols.
- Experience generating and reviewing detailed EMC, RF, or safety test reports and technical documentation suitable for certification bodies, external labs, and internal audits.
- Strong organization, prioritization, written communication, and cross-functional leadership skills, with the ability to manage multiple programs and aggressive delivery targets.
