Oversee and witness on-site and laboratory testing. Troubleshoot non-conformances and partner with R&D to engineer solutions that meet safety requirements without compromising performance. Stay ahead of the standards. Track evolving codes (NEC, NFPA 855) and ensure our internal design guidelines reflect the latest versions of applicable industry standards.
