Know your sensors, automation kit, and how to talk tech without putting people to sleep?
This role is bang in the middle of technical support, customer service, and application advice. You're the person customers and internal sales teams turn to when they need answers, alternatives, and actual solutions not just someone reading off a script.
What youll do:
* Support customers with product selection, cross-referencing, and replacements
* Handle sensor applications, PLC basics, and customer queries (phone, email, chat)
* Provide datasheets, CAD drawings, macros whatever gets the job done
* Investigate complaints and service issues, raise goodwill where needed
* Train new starters and support sales with technical guidance
* Log everything in SAP/C4C and help improve the internal knowledge base
* Occasionally run basic application tests to back up your advice
What youll need:
* Strong electrical/mechanical understanding (sensor and automation background ideal)
* Experience working with customers solving problems, not just logging them
* Calm under pressure and confident handling technical conversations
* SAP/C4C and MS Office experience
* Basic PLC knowledge is a bonus but if you know your circuits, youre halfway there
* Fluent English and good communication (written and verbal)
* Ability to work independently and juggle multiple priorities
