  • Experience in submissions for official certification through relevant compliance bodies such as FCC, ISED, UK, and CE.
  • Hands-on experience in compliance test setup in semi-anechoic chambers and with test equipment like signal generators and spectrum analyzers.

  • Review product designs for compliance readiness and perform risk assessments.
  • Lead debugging, root cause analysis, and corrective action to address compliance risks.
  • Deliver concise compliance updates to leadership, translating complex regulatory matters into clear business impact.
  • Work with manufacturing partners and labs to ensure all in-production devices remain compliant.
  • Create mechanisms and best practices to prevent repeat compliance issues and improve certification efficiency.
