Position Overview
We are seeking a Senior Field Applications Engineer (FAE) to serve as the primary technical interface between our customers and internal engineering teams. This role is ideal for an engineer who enjoys building relationships, influencing technical decisions, and driving new business opportunities through engineering expertise.

This is not a traditional sales position-it's an engineering-first role with a strong commercial focus. The successful candidate will work alongside Sales, Product Management, and Engineering to identify customer needs, develop technical solutions, support new product introductions, and drive design wins from concept through production.

We're looking for a Mechanical or Electrical Engineer who can comfortably engage customers, understand complex engineering challenges, and translate technical requirements into business opportunities. The ideal candidate enjoys being in front of customers, building long-term partnerships, and becoming a trusted advisor throughout the design cycle.

Key Responsibilities

• Serve as the primary technical liaison for key customers, providing expert application support on connector, interconnect, and electronic assemblies.
• Lead on-site and remote technical engagements including design reviews, prototype testing, troubleshooting, and performance optimization.
• Collaborate with sales and product management to define customer requirements, develop application proposals, and drive solution adoption.
• Support product integration with electrical and mechanical systems, ensuring compatibility, reliability, and manufacturability.
• Develop and deliver technical presentations, trainings, and design guidelines for customers and internal teams.
• Document application findings, create technical reports, and track issues through to resolution with R&D and quality teams.
• Provide feedback to product development on connector design, interconnects, and electronics trends to influence roadmaps and new features.
• Mentor junior application engineers, sharing best practices in testing, validation, and customer communications.
• Participate in trade shows, customer visits, and cross-functional project meetings to promote products and gather market intelligence.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or related field
• 5+ years of field applications engineering, or related customer-facing engineering experience, ideally with connector and interconnect products.
• Strong electrical and electronic knowledge including signal integrity, power distribution, and electromagnetic compatibility.
• Hands-on experience with mechanical aspects of connector design, assembly, and validation.
• Proven ability to troubleshoot complex system-level issues in the field and collaborate with R&D to implement fixes.
• Excellent communication skills for presenting technical concepts to customers and internal stakeholders.
• Experience with test equipment (oscilloscopes, network analyzers, power analyzers) and prototype validation.
• Willingness to travel regularly to customer sites and manufacturing partners.

Benefits

• $130K-$170K (DOE)
• Medical, Vision, Dental
