Research and evaluate equipment and component options based on technical suitability, availability, lead time, and pricing.
Explore innovative approaches to customer application challenges and recommend practical, technically sound solutions.
Partner with Sales to determine the best path forward for Grundfos-proposed solutions and align the technical and commercial strategy presented to the customer.
Participate in customer meetings, including pre-bid discussions, bid reviews, and technical-clarification meetings, to provide technical support alongside Sales.
Gather, analyze, and maintain equipment and system costing data to support the development of standardized estimating libraries.
Obtain and evaluate supplier quotations and coordinate with Purchasing to establish accurate material costs, availability, and lead times.
Review customer purchase orders to confirm alignment with the proposed scope, pricing, and established project budget.
Prepare and deliver comprehensive technical and commercial turnover packages to Project Management, Engineering, and Manufacturing.
Lead technical review and turnover meetings to communicate project requirements and confirm the scope of supply with downstream teams.

Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, or a related discipline
5+ years of experience in applications engineering, technical sales support, or system design.
Strong understanding of high-purity water treatment processes, system hydraulics, sanitary design principles, and high-purity water-quality requirements.
Proficiency with engineering selection and sizing tools and ability to read technical drawings and specifications

It is a plus if you also:

Experience with Grundfos product lines or comparable water technology platforms
Familiarity with building services, water utility, or industrial process applications
Professional Engineer (PE) license or working toward certification
