Job Summary

• The primary role of this position is to ensure Poly and HyperX products meet applicable global regulatory requirements and that those requirements are clearly understood and executed by project teams and ODM partners. This role provides day-to-day guidance on compliance strategies planning and deliverables across multiple programs and may require periodic travel to external test laboratories in Taiwan (and less frequently internationally) to support efficient test execution and certification submission.

• Additional responsibilities include sustaining product compliance throughout the lifecycle by applying sound engineering judgment during the Engineering Change Order (ECO) process and providing practical guidance to resolve compliance issues. This is a proactive role: the Tech Regs Engineer engages early with ODM and NPI teams to drive design for compliance identify potential risks and support the processes and documentation needed to achieve on-time high-quality certifications.

Responsibilities

• Serve as the program interface between product development teams ODM partners test laboratories and regulatory authorities worldwide to drive compliance execution and timely approvals.

• Define the applicable global regulatory compliance requirements and certification deliverables for assigned products (e.g. communication headsets keyboards video conferencing cameras IP telephony mice and other wired/wireless peripherals) and translate them into clear project plans and milestones for the team.

• Lead ODM regulatory test execution as a project owner: align test strategy review SOWs/quotations build and track the test schedule confirm worst-case configurations manage risks/issues and drive completion on time and within budget.

• Drive non-compliance resolution using a structured approach (issue definition corrective-action plan owners due dates and escalation) coordinating with engineering teams and external suppliers worldwide.

• Manage day-to-day relationships with external test laboratories to ensure alignment on scope schedules deliverables and quality of compliance evidence.

• Provide technical leadership on global standards and legislation (with emphasis on US/Canada and EU) applying requirements to project decisions schedules and certification strategies.

Qualifications

• 7 years leading regulatory compliance and certification programs for consumer electronics with clear competencies in RF/EMC and Safety project/program management capability focused on regulatory approvals: plan track and deliver compliance test and certification milestones across multiple concurrent projects.

• Build and maintain compliance project plans (scope schedule milestones dependencies) and drive execution to meet certification dates.

• Risk/issue management for regulatory compliance: identify document escalate and drive mitigation for test failures evidence gaps and submission blockers.

• Stakeholder management across cross-functional teams (ODM NPI engineering test labs): run reviews publish status and track actions to closure for approvals.

• Budget/vendor coordination for compliance activities: review quotations/SOWs manage lab purchasing needs and control spend versus plan.

• Process ownership: define/standardize compliance workflows templates and checklists to improve certification cycle time quality and audit readiness.

• Strong written and verbal communication skills including executive-ready status updates and clear documentation.

• Able to work autonomously with minimal supervision while collaborating effectively with a global cross-functional team.

• English proficiency: strong ability to read/write technical documentation and communicate with global stakeholders.

• Knowledge of RF/EMC design principles and their application to compliance (layout grounding shielding antennas filtering).

• Ability to operate common EMC/RF test equipment and interpret results to support compliance debugging and pre-compliance evaluation.

• Experience maintaining global compliance/regulatory databases and certification records.

• Familiarity with non-regulatory equipment certifications and trade/commercial requirements (e.g. TCO).

• DECT experience is a distinct advantage.
