• Supporting design reviews, FATs, SATs, commissioning, and customer acceptance
• Ensuring compliance with European and international standards
• Driving continuous improvement initiatives within machine safety and compliance
• Acting as the go-to expert for safety-related questions across the organization

The position includes approximately 15-20 travel days per year, primarily related to customer meetings, project activities, factory and site acceptance testing, and commissioning support.

You are proactive, analytical, and self-driven, with strong communication skills and the ability to build trust across all levels of the organization. Most importantly, you understand how to balance compliance requirements with practical business needs while maintaining a strong customer focus.
