Job Description

Are you passionate about matching water technology solutions to real-world engineering challenges? Then join us in our mission to pioneer smarter solutions for moving and transforming water, reducing energy consumption, and enhancing quality of life for people.

As our new Applications Engineer, you will be providing expert technical guidance on product selection, system design, and application optimization to ensure Grundfos solutions meet the precise needs of customers and projects. You'll be part of a diverse, supportive and inclusive culture, that celebrates our differences and puts people first by fostering growth, well-being, and a sense of belonging.

What you will be doing

As a key part of the Applications Engineering team, you'll create impact by bridging the gap between customer requirements and Grundfos technology to deliver reliable, energy-efficient solutions that advance sustainable high-purity water solutions worldwide.

Your main responsibilities include:

  • Evaluate customer inquiries, specifications, and operating requirements to define the technical and commercial scope of proposed high-purity water treatment solutions.

  • Develop conceptual system designs and perform preliminary engineering calculations to support equipment sizing, selection, and estimating.

  • Prepare detailed cost estimates and identify value-engineered alternatives that optimize system performance, cost, and overall customer value.

  • 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.

What makes you a great fit

Above all, you are a technically sharp engineer with strong customer-facing communication skills and a genuine enthusiasm for solving complex high-purity water system challenges. We would also imagine that you have:

  • 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

Why you will love working here

  • A working environment built around your needs, with flexible hours, home working opportunities and parental support.

  • Annual bonuses, health insurance and a strong focus on well-being activities.

  • Three days' additional paid leave for volunteering in your community.

  • Access to on-demand training and learning sessions and carefully structured programs to pursue personal and professional development opportunities.
