About the role

If you enjoy hands-on engineering, combining electrical systems and software, working directly with customers, and taking real responsibility, this role will push you forward quickly — experience helps, but what matters most is your ability to take ownership and solve real problems..
This role offers real independence in the field — you take over systems on-site, make decisions and get them operational. No two projects are the same, with changing locations, technologies and customers.
