Application engineers
Within the sales department, the role of the application engineers is to establish the technical-commercial offers in response to customer requests. It is up to them to develop the best proposal: technical, cost and time.
“The strengths sit in the technical diversity of the positions but also in the diversity of the customers that we have all over the world.”
Emilie, Application Engineer
