Our uniquely redesigned product delivers a significantly more compact fuel cell system with high power density and lower production costs. In response to the challenges of climate change and the global shift toward decentralized energy, EH Energy provides high-performance, cost-effective fuel cell solutions to our clients and partners.\nTo support our rapid growth and bring our systems to global markets, we are seeking a Certification Engineer. In this critical role, you will take full ownership of our product compliance roadmap, bridging the gap between innovative engineering and strict global regulations. You will lead hazard and risk assessments, define certification strategies across international markets (EU, North America, marine), and interface directly with notified bodies and classification societies to ensure our fuel cell systems are safe, fully compliant, and market-ready.\nThis role requires a full-time, on-site presence at our office in Nyon, Switzerland. We are unable to offer remote or hybrid arrangements, so candidates should be based locally or prepared to relocate.\nKey responsibilities\nCertification strategy and project management\nIdentify applicable directives, regulations, harmonised standards and class rules early in the development cycle and translate them into design requirements (EU, North America, marine)\n\nSelect and manage notified bodies, NRTLs, classification societies and test laboratories, own budgets, schedules and contracts for certification work\n\nPlan and witness type tests, factory acceptance tests (FAT) and site acceptance tests (SAT)\n\nSafety engineering and risk analysis\nLead risk assessments to ISO 12100 and hazard studies (HAZID, HAZOP to IEC 61882)\n\nLead design and process FMEA (IEC 60812) for stacks, balance of plant, containers and fuel processing\n\nRun explosion-protection assessments: hazardous area classification (IEC 60079-10-1), ventilation and gas detection concepts, and equipment selection\n\nSpecify and verify safety functions to ISO 13849 (PL) and IEC 61508, including safety requirement specifications and validation reports\n\nCompliance and technical documentation\nCompile and maintain technical construction files, CE Declarations of Conformity, type-approval dossiers and certification reports\n\nWrite and review user, installation, operation and maintenance manuals, safety instructions and labelling\n\nMaintain the standards register and assess the impact of new or revised standards\n\nManage certification change control: assess design changes for impact on existing certificates\n\nCollaboration and continuous improvement\nAct as the internal authority on certification scope: ensure in-service conformity of series production with certified designs, and support procurement and supply chain on material and packaging compliance (e.g. RoHS, packaging regulations).\n\nSupport design reviews and supplier qualification, including component certificates (ATEX, PED, electrical)\n\nStandards and regulatory scope\nThe role covers, but is not limited to, the frameworks below. Working knowledge of most is expected; deep expertise in several is required\nIEC 62282 series, CSA/ANSI FC 1:2021, ISO 16110-1 and Machinery Regulation (EU) 2023/1230\n\nRequired qualifications\nMaster’s or bachelor’s degree in mechanical, electrical, chemical, process or safety engineering, or equivalent\n\n5+ years in product certification, compliance or safety engineering for complex electromechanical or process equipment (energy, gas, process, machinery or marine)\n\nDirect experience with hydrogen or fuel cell systems and the IEC 62282 series, CSA/ANSI FC 1 or ISO 16110\n\nProven track record of taking products through CE marking and third-party certification with notified bodies or NRTLs\n\nHands-on experience leading FMEA, HAZOP and risk assessments, and documenting them to auditor standard\n\nSolid knowledge of ATEX / IECEx, hazardous area classification and explosion-protection concepts\n\nExperience specifying and validating safety functions to ISO 13849 and/or IEC 61508\n\nExcellent technical writing: clear, structured, audit-ready technical files and manuals\n\nFluent English, written and spoken\n\nPreferred qualifications and personal profile\nNice to have\nMarine type approval with a classification society (DNV, LR, BV, ABS) or IGF Code projects\n\nExperience with fuel processing, reformers or fire equipment, and with pressure equipment under PED\n\nCertified functional safety qualification or ATEX/IECEx competence certification\n\nFamiliarity with North American codes (NEC, NFPA) and UL/CSA certification\n\nPersonal profile\nRigorous and structured, with a strong safety mindset and an eye for detail\n\nPragmatic: finds compliant solutions that keep development moving\n\nConfident communicator with engineers, auditors, authorities and customers\n\nSelf-driven in a fast-growing, scale-up environment;
