• Electrical (multimeters, clamp meters, insulation testers, process calibrators, power supplies)
• Mass (balances, weighing scales, mass standards)
• Force/Load (load cells, force gauges, tensile/compression testing equipment)
• Perform both laboratory and on-site calibration activities.
• Ensure traceability of measurements to national and international standards.
• Calculate and report measurement uncertainty as per laboratory requirements.
• Review calibration results and determine compliance against specifications.
• Troubleshoot instruments and provide technical recommendations for repair or adjustment.
  

• Prepare calibration certificates and reports in accordance with ISO/IEC 17025 requirements.
• Maintain calibration records, work instructions, technical procedures, and quality documentation.
• Ensure compliance with laboratory quality management systems and accreditation requirements.
• Participate in internal audits, external audits, and accreditation assessments.
• Support implementation and continuous improvement of ISO/IEC 17025 procedures.
• Assist in corrective actions, root cause analysis, risk assessments, and non-conformance investigations.
• Maintain laboratory environmental monitoring records and equipment traceability.
  

• Provide technical support to customers regarding calibration requirements and measurement best practices.
• Coordinate with sales and service teams on calibration contracts and customer requirements.
• Support method validation, proficiency testing, and inter-laboratory comparison activities.
• Assist in the development and revision of calibration procedures and work instructions.
  

• Bachelor's Degree or Diploma in Mechanical, Electrical, Instrumentation, Electronics, or Mechatronics Engineering.
  

• Minimum 3–5 years of experience in an ISO/IEC 17025 accredited calibration laboratory.
• Hands-on experience in calibration of Pressure, Temperature, Torque, Dimensional, Electrical, Mass, and Force/Load parameters.
• Experience in uncertainty calculations and technical review of calibration certificates.
• Exposure to accreditation body assessments and quality audits.
  

• Strong knowledge of ISO/IEC 17025:2017 requirements.
• Understanding of laboratory quality management systems.
• Knowledge of measurement uncertainty calculations and traceability requirements.
• Familiarity with international standards such as:
• ISO 17025
• ISO 9001
• ILAC Guidelines
• EURAMET Guides
• Relevant ASTM, ISO, and IEC standards
• Ability to interpret engineering drawings and technical specifications.
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office and calibration management software.
  

• Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Strong documentation and report-writing abilities.
• Effective communication and customer-facing skills.
• Ability to work independently and manage multiple calibration projects.
• High attention to detail and commitment to quality.
  

• UAE Driving License.
