This role is for candidates with a Mechanical Engineering background — not for Software/IT professionals.
Ledvore is hiring an experienced Project Engineer to be the dedicated point of contact for one of our international automotive clients, based full time out of our Coimbatore office. This is a senior, client-facing role centered on relationship management, communication, and documentation — supporting the client's Europe/USA-based teams through portal management and explicit, consistent communication.
Key Responsibilities:
Own customer portal activity on behalf of the client (automotive supplier/sourcing portals) — managing RFQs and open tasks through to closure with minimal oversight
Act as the senior communication point between the client's European/US teams and internal stakeholders
Prepare, track, and maintain accurate documentation (reports, technical correspondence, status trackers)
Review technical drawings/specifications when required (basic CAD literacy expected)
Build and manage strong, long-term relationships with international client contacts,
including senior stakeholders
Mentor or guide junior team members on portal processes and client communication practices
Work on a shift basis, including a second shift (11:00 AM–12:00 PM start) to overlap with European/US working hours
Use AI tools where helpful to improve documentation and communication efficiency
Requirements:
Mechanical Engineering degree or equivalent — required
6–7 years of experience in a customer-facing role, ideally in automotive/industrial B2B
Fluent in English — written and spoken (essential, daily communication with Europe/USA clients)
Proven experience interacting directly with customers/clients (any industry background considered, as long as customer interaction was core to the role)
Basic working knowledge of CAD (SolidWorks, AutoCAD, or similar)
Strong documentation and follow-up discipline
Comfortable with shift-based working hours
