Job Summary
In this role, you will develop technical solutions for high-power applications, execute customer-specific projects, and operate an applications lab to deliver product demonstrations and technical training.
Job Technologies
Your role in the team
- The Product Line Applications Engineer is the technical owner of "how the product is used" for the high-power product line - bidirectional (regenerative) DC sources and loads for battery, e-mobility and data center power test.
- The role turns product capability into proven, demonstrable customer applications: through custom project engineering, live demonstrations, application content, and a dedicated high-power applications lab that this role is expected to specify, build up and operate.
- The position is part of the Product Line organization and serves as the technical bridge between Product Management, R&D, Sales, and the field organization.
- It is neither a sales role nor a development role, but a customer-facing technical leadership position that ensures effective collaboration across all functions and translates application insights into successful products and solutions.
- Support customers and internal teams with technical product questions, system sizing, configuration recommendations, and application-related inquiries.
- Assist in translating customer requirements into practical technical solutions and system concepts for a variety of power electronics applications.
- Contribute to customer-specific projects by helping define requirements, preparing technical documentation, and supporting solution development.
- Collaborate with Product Management, Engineering, Sales, and Service teams to address technical challenges and support successful project execution.
- Design, build, maintain, and deliver product demonstrations, proof-of-concept setups, and application-focused presentations for customers and industry events.
- Support the operation and continuous improvement of the applications laboratory, including test setups, equipment maintenance, safety procedures, and verification testing.
- Create and maintain application notes, technical documentation, training materials, and reference examples to support customers, sales teams, and partners.
- Assist with test automation, software integration, and industrial communication interfaces while supporting customer test systems and application environments.
