- Consistent with the obligations of these laws, ICON will make reasonable accommodations for qualified individuals with disabilities.
Responsibilities
- Translate building code acceptance requirements, including ICC-ES AC509, UFC, IBC/IRC, and ASTM/ACI/ASCE, into technical code requirements for product development and testing, including for novel or precedent-limited product questions where established approaches don't directly apply.
- Own the regulatory-side review and approval of test plans, specimen designs, and test matrices for standard and complex campaigns, and advise other regulatory engineers on test-plan review approach
- coordinate with the Product Development testing team that executes and owns the testing function.
- Lead the technical case-building when a new pathway or product approval is needed, involving department leadership only on the most novel matters.
- Define the quality-control outcomes and requirements for regulatory acceptance of ICON's additive concrete construction and building products, serving as the technical reference other ICON teams consult as they develop and implement their QC processes.
- Manage third party review relationships, including ICC-ES. Lead the planning and presenting at the semiannual inspections, and sustain that relationship through ongoing work and acceptance criteria development.

- Practical design and/or testing experience with concrete and masonry structural systems and materials
- Demonstrated ability to analyze and interpret structural and material test data using engineering principles and statistical methods, and to draw defensible technical conclusions from it
- Experience connecting engineering evidence to code compliance or regulatory acceptance, for example, evaluation reports, code-compliance substantiation, or standards-based qualification
