To support its growth and international expansion in Europe and North America, eSOL is seeking an experienced Senior Field Application Engineer (FAE) to join its European team.

As a Senior FAE at eSOL, you will be part of the customer-facing technical team and report to the VP of Engineering of eSOL Europe (hierarchical) and the VP of International Sales (functional).

You will work closely with and provide valuable pre-sales technical support to the international sales team to win new customers, develop design-ins and grow business with existing customers, driving growth and success for eSOL. You will also participate in and support the company’s events (tradeshows, webinars, conferences, etc.).

You will be responsible for product presentations and demos to customers and partners, describing how the eMCOS real-time software platform is the optimal solution for their embedded multicore applications. During customer evaluations, proof-of-concept (POC) and pilot projects, you will provide field technical support, including on-site visits, to review software designs and architectures, investigate customer issues, and make suggestions for optimal use of eMCOS products and technology.
