About the company

We are looking for a technical testing engineer for Avant Tecno to strengthen the product safety and compliance of skid steer loaders and attachments. From the very beginning, you will work as part of the product safety and documentation team, where you will get hands-on with actual machines and gradually grow your expertise and responsibilities in product safety specialist roles.

Your tasks

In the initial phase, your work will focus on the planning, execution, and documentation of compliance testing, as well as the development of testing operating models. The job combines practical testing, interpretation of technical standards, and analysis of test results. You will produce reliable information to demonstrate the safety and compliance of products for use in product development, documentation, sales, and customer communication.

Tasks and responsibilities

• Planning, coordinating, and executing tests for skid steer loaders and attachments based on product, standard, and regulatory requirements
• Preparation of machines, measuring equipment, and measurement arrangements to be tested, as well as practical testing, such as noise and brake tests and verification of the technical characteristics of attachments
• Analyzing test results, evaluating reliability and repeatability, and documenting results and conclusions
• Building and developing uniform testing, reporting, and documentation practices
• Collaboration with external test laboratories regarding safety, EMC, noise, and other regulatory requirement-related tests
• Participating in risk assessments, technical investigations, deviation investigations, and the assessment of new products' compliance together with other specialists

In this role, you will move between warehouse, testing, and office environments and work closely with product development, documentation, product managers, and sales. You will familiarize yourself with product safety requirements through the application of practical tests and technical standards with the support of other specialists. As your expertise grows, you will increasingly participate in risk assessments, technical investigations, and the assessment of products' compliance with standards.

Success in this position requires a hands-on, independent, and systematic work approach as well as problem-solving skills. You enjoy working with machines and are motivated to determine their characteristics through measuring and testing.
