Description
What are your new tasks? Here is an overview:
Are you an organizational talent, do you like to work in a structured way, are you familiar with project work and can quickly find optional solutions? Then this is the job for you!
Questioning: It is important to us that our engineers objectively scrutinize and check the relevance of all requests and steps throughout the project.
Provide support in the preparation of quotations: As an expert, you determine the necessary steps so that Sales can offer these to our customers.
Creating project plans, including reporting: As a project engineer, you know that good and precise planning is the key to success. Regular, condensed reporting to management is part of this.
Planning of tests in internal/external laboratories: Coordination with our worldwide laboratories is required for the necessary tests.
Regular review and adherence to planned time frames: Projects are always time-bound for us. Of course, who likes to wait for their work! That's why each of our engineers is fully responsible for their deadlines. You could say that structure and order are the be-all and end-all in this job.
Plan and carry out tests with customers (witness test): Some tests cannot be carried out in our own laboratories. Our engineers travel to customers or external laboratories to carry out the tests on site. Therefore, business trips are also part of the job.
Creating the necessary documentation: For us too, no project is complete without the necessary documentation! Especially as a certifier, our documents must be complete, up-to-date and correct. You've come to the right place if that's your thing!
Supporting management: e.g. with audits in the form of e.g. data revision, identifying potential for improvement, drawing up training plans, later mentoring new colleagues.
Expand customer contact and network with customers: In order to offer our customers the best possible service, “networking” is part of the job. As an expert, this is a matter of course for you.

About this role
UL Solutions is seeking a Fire Suppression Engineer to manage certification projects from conception through delivery. You'll own the full project lifecycle: scrutinizing customer requests for feasibility, preparing technical quotations, building detailed project plans, and coordinating testing across UL's global laboratory network and customer sites. The role demands strong organizational discipline—you'll track timelines rigorously, produce regular management reports, and ensure all documentation meets certification standards. Travel to customer facilities for witness testing comprises roughly a quarter of your time.
This position suits someone with a technical engineering background in safety, fire protection, or mechanical engineering and proven experience navigating certification frameworks (EN and CE standards). You'll need solid project management fundamentals, the ability to quickly master unfamiliar technical topics, and confidence communicating with customers, colleagues, and leadership across language and cultural boundaries. Meticulous attention to detail is non-negotiable; certification work leaves no room for incomplete or inaccurate records.
Beyond project delivery, you'll support management through internal audits, process improvement initiatives, and mentoring. Building and maintaining customer relationships is integral to the role. Fluent English—both written and spoken—is essential given the international scope of the work.
