Collaborate with project teams to provide technical solutions.

Key Responsibilities

Product Design & Development

• Design and develop fire alarm devices, gas detectors, flame detectors, control panels, and safety system components.

• Create engineering designs including electrical schematics, PCB layouts, mechanical housings, and system architectures.

• Develop prototypes and conduct design iterations to improve sensitivity, reliability, and long-term stability of sensors.

Sensor & System Integration

• Integrate gas sensors (electrochemical, IR, catalytic bead, semiconductor), flame sensors (UV/IR, multi-spectrum), and smoke/heat detectors.

• Collaborate with embedded software engineers to implement signal processing, calibration algorithms, and communication interfaces.

• Select components that ensure long-term accuracy in harsh or hazardous environments.

Testing & Validation

• Conduct engineering tests: environmental, vibration, thermal cycling, ingress protection (IP), EMC/EMI, and hazardous-area compliance.

• Validate detection performance against industry standards (EN 54, EN 60079, NFPA, UL/FM, ATEX, IECEx).

• Perform root-cause analysis and implement corrective actions for design issues.

Documentation & Compliance

• Prepare detailed technical documentation including design specifications, BOMs, test procedures, and reports.

• Support certification processes (ATEX, IECEx, UL/FM, SIL/Functional Safety).

• Document calibration methods and maintenance requirements.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Work with manufacturing teams to ensure design-for-manufacturing (DFM) and design-for-assembly (DFA) requirements are met.

• Support supply chain teams in component selection, vendor evaluation, and quality assurance.

• Collaborate with product managers to define technical requirements and product roadmaps.
