Summary

Application Engineer (Electrical / Industrial Systems)

We're looking for a hands-on Application Engineer who can move quickly from concept to quote to execution. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a technical, customer-facing environment and wants to make a direct impact on complex electrical and industrial projects.

You'll lead pre-sales support, develop quotations, and help deliver solutions across power distribution, automation, and mining-related systems-including E-Houses, substations, switchgear, and control systems.

What You'll Do

Own the quotation process from initial request through final submission
Translate customer requirements into technical solutions and specifications
Develop accurate, competitive proposals for electrical and industrial systems
Partner with engineering, sales, and production to deliver customer-ready solutions
Support orders through production and provide clear, proactive customer updates
Troubleshoot technical and process issues with minimal direction
Build strong customer relationships through responsive, consultative support
Present technical information clearly-internally and externally

What You Bring

3-5+ years of experience in quotations, application engineering, or technical sales
Background in switchgear, substations, E-Houses, industrial power systems, or similar
Ability to read and interpret electrical schematics and system layouts
Experience developing product specs and project-based quotes
Strong communication skills and a customer-first mindset
Experience with SAP or similar ERP systems (preferred)
Associate degree in Electrical Engineering (or equivalent experience)

Why This Role Stands Out

High visibility impact - you directly influence revenue and project success
Variety of work - no repetitive quoting; complex, custom solutions
Collaborative environment - direct access to engineering and leadership
Growth opportunity - expand into senior engineering or commercial leadership paths
Stability + innovation - established company with advanced industrial technology

Details

Work environment: In-person, office setting
Full-time with competitive pay + full benefits (medical, dental, vision, 401k, PTO)
