Approved successfully up to 6-megawatt power conversion for marine environment. Top of electrical approval, it included the EMC, environmental/mechanical, pressure, manufacturing, quality system, SW approvals. We used normal testing, simulation and documentation based evidence to prove the compliance. Approval include both CE and rigorous Marine classification society approvals up to 7 marine classes. These marine deliveries were classified as an essential service which raise the bar in approvals. I ramped up the Russia Maritime approval. Worked also in ABB Ability IOT device (3G-modem monitoring device) which main purpose is to provide error free functionality for customer. This task included CE , and UL approval. I also acted as a consultant for many ABB IOT/3G implementations.Simultaneously I proved myself that I am still eager to learn new technology quickly - I did have zero experience of the power electronic and Marine technology when I started. I received very good feedback about my skills to learn new technology and attitude to handle approval. It was also good to realize that same good certification experiences and practices worked in totally different industry area.
