Manager, Safety Certification & Standards
About the role
In today's dynamic worksites, seamless collaboration between people and machines is essential. FORT's platform ensures safe, secure, and dynamic control that surpasses legacy systems and next-generation AI capabilities. While autonomous machines offer significant advantages, they also introduce new safety challenges. FORT addresses these concerns by providing solutions such as the Wireless E-Stop, which allows operators to instantly stop any machine from a safe distance, enhancing safety during emergencies. Additionally, FORT's Safe Remote Control enables operators to manage heavy machinery remotely, reducing the risk of accidents and improving visibility. By ensuring communications integrity across any network, FORT empowers customers to protect their most valuable assets—people, data, and machines—ensuring they remain safe and secure. We're looking for a Manager, Safety Certification & Standards to own every standard and regulatory requirement that touches our products and to serve as the named Functional Safety Manager accountable for the lifecycle that proves we meet them. Our products are certified subsystems that other companies build into the machines they place on the market. That makes this role the bridge between one IEC 61508 safety lifecycle and the many certificates, data packs, and safety manuals our customers' own safety arguments depend on.
