Scored from the posting itself — how clearly the role is described, how much it says about pay and benefits, and how recently it was listed. Not a judgement of FORT Robotics as an employer.

What you need

  • 7+ years in functional safety as a practising engineer in regulated domains
  • Experience taking at least one product through third-party certification end-to-end
  • Deep fluency in IEC 61508 parts 1–3
  • Working knowledge of ISO 13849 and IEC 62061 from the supplier side
  • Judgement to critically review safety analysis
  • Comfort with influence rather than line authority

Nice to have

  • TÜV Rheinland FS Engineer or Exida CFSE/CFSP certification
  • Machinery and off-highway experience
  • Safety-element-out-of-context or compliant-item work
  • EU Machinery Regulation readiness programs
  • Autonomy and SOTIF exposure

Worth weighing

  • No direct reports in this role; authority comes from safety plan and direct line to CTO
  • Base compensation range is stated but may vary based on experience and location
