  • Communicate With Clarity: You tailor messages to different audiences and deliver information in a way that drives understanding and alignment.
  • Champion Health & Safety: You model proactive safety behaviors and contribute to an injury-free, interdependent workplace culture.
  • Integrate Drawings Into Process Design: You interpret product and equipment drawings to design manufacturing processes that meet all technical specifications.
  • Select the Right Equipment: You choose manufacturing equipment that aligns with Cummins standards and supports project needs.
  • Drive Data-Led Manufacturing Design: You use digital modeling and simulation tools to make informed decisions and continuously improve processes.
  • Document Processes for Consistency: You create clear, standardized manufacturing procedures that ensure continuity and quality across stakeholders.
  • Solve Problems Systematically: You apply structured problem-solving methods to identify root causes, implement durable solutions, and prevent recurrence.

Responsibilities
To be successful in this role you will need the following:
  • Deep Machine Safety Expertise: You need strong knowledge of global, national, and local machine-safety regulations to interpret requirements and guide plants, projects, and leadership effectively.
  • Risk Assessment & Technical Evaluation Skills: You must be able to perform machine safety risk assessments, inspections, verifications, validations, and system design reviews - including safeguarding and functional safety evaluations.
  • Controls & Systems Knowledge: Success requires hands-on understanding of electrical, pneumatic, hydraulic, and automation control systems, plus the ability to read or reverse-engineer detailed control schematics when documentation is missing.
  • Ability to Develop Standards & Processes: You need the capability to create and maintain internal guidelines, specifications, maintenance programs, testing protocols, and documentation related to machine safeguarding and functional safety.
  • Strong Collaboration Across Global Teams: You must work effectively with remote, cross-disciplinary teams and the Global Manufacturing Engineering group to ensure consistent application of machine-safety standards worldwide.
  • Incident Investigation & Problem-Solving Skills: You need the ability to lead or support root-cause analyses for machine-safety incidents and drive corrective and preventive actions across multiple sites.
  • Training & Communication Capability: You must be able to train employees, communicate new requirements, and translate complex safety concepts into clear guidance for diverse audiences.
  • Project Leadership & Vendor Management: You need the ability to act as SME on capital projects, manage external consultants, support remediation work, and ensure all safety solutions meet Cummins and industry standards.

Education, Licenses, Certifications:
College, university, or degree in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) or related field, or equivalent experience required.
This position may require licensing for compliance with export controls or sanctions regulations.
Experience:
Intermediate level of relevant work experience required.
Qualifications
  • Engineering Foundation: A bachelor's degree in engineering and a practical understanding of machinery operation to ground all safety decisions in sound engineering principles.
  • Advanced Machine Safety Expertise: At least 3+ years of hands-on experience leading machine safeguarding programs, including risk assessments, safety-system evaluation, and implementation of Safety Functions (SRP-CS) per ISO 13849-1 using tools like SISTEMA.
  • Functional Safety Certification: Certification as a Functional Safety Engineer (CSME or TÜV) to validate expertise in machinery functional safety requirements.
  • Strong Controls & Automation Knowledge: Deep technical understanding of electrical, pneumatic, hydraulic, and automation control systems, including the ability to read and interpret complex schematics.
  • Standards & Regulatory Mastery: Working knowledge of Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC and detailed application of key standards such as ISO 13849-1/2, IEC 62061, ISO 12100, and relevant ANSI/ISO regulations.
  • Safety Hardware & System Proficiency: Familiarity with a wide range of safeguarding technologies - interlocks, presence-sensing devices, safety relays, safety PLCs, safety-rated drives/servos, and pneumatic/hydraulic safety valves.
  • Testing, Validation & Troubleshooting Skills: Ability to use electrical/mechanical test equipment, commission and troubleshoot safety functions, and program logic solvers, safety relays, and HMIs.
  • Leadership in Cross-Functional Safety Work: Experience leading multidisciplinary risk assessments, guiding teams with limited safety knowledge, managing consultants, and driving company-wide machine-safety improvement plans.
