Application Engineer

We are looking for an experienced Application Engineer to join our Energy team and support customers with advanced monitoring and diagnostic solutions for high-voltage electrical assets.

In this role, you will be the technical link between customers, sales, product management, and engineering. You will support the full customer journey: from technical sales discussions and product demonstrations to field testing, system installation, commissioning, training, data analysis, and post-installation support.

The ideal candidate has a strong background in electrical engineering, power systems, high-voltage equipment, or condition monitoring, with practical experience or a strong interest in Partial Discharge diagnostics. This is a hands-on, customer-facing role that combines field work, application expertise, technical communication, and commercial awareness.

• Support sales teams during customer meetings, proposal preparation, product demonstrations, workshops, and technical discussions.

• Help understand customer needs and translate them into suitable technical solutions.

• Explain complex technical topics clearly to both technical and commercial audiences.

• Support the preparation of technical content for proposals, presentations, and customer communication.

• Support testing and monitoring for high-voltage assets such as transformers, switchgear, cables, and other grid equipment.

• Plan and execute customer site visits, field demonstrations, installations, commissioning, and troubleshooting of monitoring systems.

• Prepare technical reports based on field measurements, monitoring data, or third-party results.

• Deliver customer training on theory, measurement principles, system operation, data analysis, reporting, and asset condition assessment.

• Collaborate with engineering, product management, operations, logistics, and sales to ensure successful project delivery.

• Contribute to application notes, technical documentation, training materials, case studies, conference papers, and presentations.

• Provide structured feedback from field experience to improve products, applications, and customer support processes.

• Share application knowledge internally.

• Competitive salary.

• Lots of traveling, to anywhere across the globe (10 to 30% traveling time, depending on the workload).

• Innovative high-tech, international organization, with lots of growth opportunities.

• The opportunity to work in a cross-functional and interdisciplinary environment.

• A lot to learn and to develop. We stimulate personal development.

• Master’s degree or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Power Engineering, Physics, or a related technical field.

• Typically, 3–6+ years of experience in electrical systems, applications, testing, diagnostics, or a related technical field.

• Strong problem-solving skills and ability to investigate technical issues in field and customer-facing environments.

• Excellent communication and presentation skills, with the ability to explain complex technical topics clearly.

• Customer-oriented mindset, professional attitude, and ability to build trust with customers and internal teams.

• Strong business ethics, reliable work approach, and professional personal character.

• Willingness to travel internationally for customer visits, installations, commissioning, training, and events, typically around 30% of the time.

• Foundational to solid understanding of Partial Discharge theory, measurement techniques, or condition monitoring.

• Experience with high-voltage electrical equipment, substations, grid assets, or industrial power systems.

• Practical experience with PD testing, PD data interpretation.

• Experience with fibre optic sensing, acoustic emission, asset management, condition monitoring, structural health monitoring, non-destructive testing, or predictive maintenance.
