Original job description

Description

Position Overview We are seeking a hands-on Functional Safety Engineer to support the development and certification of complex robotic construction systems. This engineer will own system-level safety activities, including hazard analysis, functional safety requirements, safety feature development, risk documentation, and certification readiness.

The ideal candidate has experience applying functional safety principles to robotics, automation, industrial machinery, or similarly complex electromechanical systems. This is not an audit-only or compliance-monitoring position. The engineer must be able to identify hazards, develop practical solutions, implement safety improvements, and work across mechanical, electrical, controls, and software teams.

Key Responsibilities

-Lead functional safety activities for complex robotic and electromechanical systems. -Develop and maintain hazard analyses, risk assessments, and system safety documentation from the ground up. -Translate identified hazards into clear system, subsystem, and component-level safety requirements. -Support the transition from initial hazard analysis into the development and implementation of specific safety features. -Work with controls, robotics, mechanical, electrical, computer vision, and software teams to integrate safety into product design. -Develop safety functions that use sensors, controls, machine awareness, or computer vision to detect people and environmental hazards. -Define and implement appropriate machine responses, including controlled stops, reduced-speed operation, interlocks, and other risk-reduction measures. -Apply functional safety standards such as ISO 13849 and relevant transferable standards, including IEC 62061 and IEC 61508. -Support OSHA compliance and other applicable machinery and workplace safety requirements. -Partner with external certification consultants to advance products toward NRTL, UL, and other applicable certifications. -Review mechanical and electrical drawings and provide practical recommendations for safety-related design changes. -Oversee the implementation and verification of safety improvements rather than only documenting or flagging potential concerns. -Communicate safety risks, requirements, and recommended solutions clearly across multidisciplinary engineering teams. -Take ownership of safety initiatives and independently drive work forward in a fast-paced product-development environment.

Additional Skills & Qualifications

Experience working directly with certification laboratories or third-party certification consultants. Experience developing safety functions involving sensors, controls, machine perception, or computer vision. Familiarity with safety-rated controls, interlocks, emergency stops, guarding systems, presence detection, and controlled machine-stop functions. Experience with complex mobile, autonomous, industrial, or construction-related robotic equipment. Familiarity with SolidWorks, AutoCAD Electrical, or SolidWorks Electrical. Experience working in a startup, rapid product-development, or similarly fast-moving engineering environment.
