Work on technology that drives global trade integrity and industrial automation with real, daily impact

Precision mass metrology and dynamic weighing systems are foundational to modern society. They enable industrial automation, support fair commercial billing, and give consumers and businesses confidence in the accuracy and safety of the products they use everyday. Before these complex measurement systems can enter the market, they must be tested, assessed, and certified against the recognized industry standards. This is where NMi plays an important role.

For our Mass Metrology and Dynamic Weighing team, we are looking for a Certification Engineer who enjoys combining hands‑on testing and technical expertise with project ownership and customer contact. In this role, you evaluate advanced mass measurement systems including checkweighers, industrial scales, and digital load cells against international standards and legal metrology requirements. You manage certification projects from initial application through to final approval, ensuring a clear and technically robust process.

The role combines project management, technical evaluation and hands‑on testing. You collaborate with customers, test engineers, and internal specialists. Together you define test plans, review technical documentation, analyse test results, and carry out testing yourself, including at customer locations abroad.

You work in a field where high‑precision technology and regulations continuously evolve. This creates a dynamic environment that requires both precision and adaptability, offering variety in how you apply your expertise.

What you’ll do

• Manage multiple certification projects from start to finish, overseeing planning progress, scope, coordination
• Define test plans, coordinate testing activities, and combine hands‑on testing with technical review in close collaboration with test engineers
• Review technical documentation, analyse results, and assess compliance with relevant standards (e.g. MID, OIML, IEC)
• Act as the main point of contact for customers throughout the certification process
• Perform on‑site testing at client locations, including international travel

What you’ll get

• On the job training to develop your expertise in certification processes, standards, and regulatory frameworks
