Reporting to the Senior Director, Product Development & Industry Affairs, this role is responsible for leading laboratory operations that support product development, certification, and compliance for Atkore's electrical, safety, and infrastructure products.

  • Collect, analyze, and interpret test data to determine root causes of non-compliant results and support design or process improvement recommendations
  • Identify and plan future laboratory capability needs, including new equipment, fixtures, software, and infrastructure aligned with long-term Atkore product strategy
  • Conduct regular 1-on-1 meetings with direct reports, provide clear expectations, manage performance, and support training and competency development
  • Drive continuous improvement in laboratory safety, efficiency, effectiveness, and certification success rate

What you'll bring:
  • Bachelor's degree in mechanical or electrical engineering, advanced degree preferred.
  • 2-5 years of work experience in a manufacturing environment
  • Experience working in a lab setting preferred.
  • Proficiency in Engineering Software (Inventor, SolidWorks, AutoCAD)
  • Understanding of Product standards and Conformity assessment programs (UL, CSA, NSF, etc..)
  • Strong Organizational and communication skills

Within 3 Months, You'll:
  • Complete Atkore new-hire immersion and safety training
  • Build relationships with key internal stakeholders and certification partners
  • Actively perform and oversee laboratory testing while becoming familiar with lab equipment, procedures, and certification workflows

Within 6 Months, You'll:
  • Independently lead complex testing activities and certification efforts
  • Serve as the primary technical authority for laboratory outputs and developing ISO/IEC 17025 processes
  • Coach lab personnel through testing and certification requirements while ensuring documentation discipline
