• Partner with customers to define technical requirements and develop optimized hydraulic and electronic system solutions.
• Provide pre-sales technical support, including customer presentations, demonstrations, and training.
• Design, size, validate, and troubleshoot application solutions using Danfoss products and technologies.
• Conduct machine testing and performance verification both on customer sites and at Danfoss application development facilities.
• Act as the voice of the customer by sharing market trends, technical requirements, and application insights with internal stakeholders.

What We're Looking For

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, or equivalent engineering experience.
• Experience in application engineering, preferably within mobile off-highway equipment or related industries.
• Strong knowledge of hydraulics, electronic control systems, communication networks, and software-based control solutions.
• Proven ability to manage technical projects and work directly with customers in a consultative environment.
• Professional proficiency in English; additional Spanish language skills are considered an advantage.

• We promote from within and support your learning with mentoring, training, and access to global opportunities.
• You’ll have flexibility, autonomy, and support to do your best work while maintaining a healthy work-life balance. Your well-being matters to us.
• We strive to create an inclusive work environment where people of all backgrounds are respected, and valued for who they are.
• You’ll receive benefits like 13th salary, annual bonus, paid vacation, pension plans, personal insurance, and more. These vary by country and contract, but they’re worth asking about—we think they’re pretty great.

All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, or other protected category.
