Applications Engineer

Funciones

The Pre-sales Engineer or Applications Engineer is a key position in the company. You’ll be one of the first contacts with the customer, playing a crucial role in bridging the gap between customer needs and the company’s capabilities.

This role involves transforming customer requests into tangible project deliverables, including design of layout, price calculations, and comprehensive quotations.

The Applications Engineer ensures that all technical and commercial aspects are meticulously addressed to facilitate successful project execution.

Also, you’ll take part in the negotiation of the project, the kickoff to the technical office and the follow-up of the project.

Your work is largely project-based pre‑sales / application engineering:

• Concept & layout design. Design layouts and solutions in AutoCAD based on the customer’s process and the available footprint.
• Analyse customer requests and constraints (space, process, capacity).
• Work with standard machines and configure/adapt them
• Technical & cost calculations: Break down solutions into machines, options and components, calculate machine and project costs using historical data, internal tables and engineering input. Translate costs into sales prices using price lists or margin targets.
• Quotations & customer interface (pre‑sales): Prepare technical and commercial quotations, and structure, describe and document the proposed solution clearly.
• Support the sales team with all technical aspects in customer discussions.
• Answer technical questions from customers and internal stakeholders before the order is placed.
• Combining technical knowledge with a financial perspective.
• You’ll work closely with sales, engineering and procurement to give the customer optimal service and support. Your scope is everything before the sale: from first concept to final quotation.
