We also develop our own robotics technology, software and Physical AI, and we are now stepping confidently into Physical AI industrial solutions, combining proven automation with robotics and humanoids. We already work with well-known pharma companies, and for the last 5 years we have delivered projects together with Siemens as their preferred OEM partner.
Join us to be part of the team shaping how factories will run in the coming decade.
The Role
We need a solution engineer at heart, not just a document writer. You will combine working knowledge of industrial automation with the ability to propose feasible, innovative solutions across our full solution range. You will write detailed, transparent proposals that explain the concept, prove technical feasibility and make the commercial case, and you will own the journey from first discovery call to closure, working closely with the simulation, engineering and project teams.
Key Responsibilities
- Identify and pursue new opportunities in pharma, food/FMCG and manufacturing
- Run discovery calls and site surveys, understand the client’s process and problems, and shape a practical, innovative solution
- Write detailed proposals,
functional specifications and solution documents that explain the concept clearly and show feasibility and value
- Define the automation concept and control architecture (PLC, SCADA/HMI, networks, I/O scope) and confirm technical feasibility with engineering before committing to the client
- Identify project risks, assumptions and constraints at the proposal stage, with clear scope boundaries
- Prepare project budgets: BOMs, integration effort, cost breakdowns and margins
- Create presentation decks, solution architecture diagrams and factory floor layouts (AutoCAD or equivalent)
- Coordinate closely with simulation, engineering, procurement and project teams to include simulation results, technical data and accurate costs in proposals
- Manage the lead pipeline, track proposals and follow deals through to closure
- Maintain a library of standard templates, reference layouts and reusable proposal content
- Support the sales team in client meetings with technical clarifications
Preferred Candidate Profile
- 4 to 7 years of experience in sales, pre-sales, solution or proposal engineering in industrial automation
- B.E./B.Tech in Mechanical, Electrical, Mechatronics, Instrumentation, Electronics or a related field
- Working knowledge of robot palletising, conveyor and robot handling solutions,
with the ability to judge what is feasible
- Understanding of PLC and SCADA/HMI platforms (Siemens preferred), industrial networks (Profinet, Ethernet/IP, OPC-UA) and safety systems
- Strong grasp of automation project costing, integration, FAT/SAT, installation and commissioning
- Proven ability to write detailed, well-structured proposals and explain concepts clearly to technical and business readers
- Balanced sales and technical judgement: wins client confidence while staying realistic on feasibility
- Proven ability to engage decision-makers (plant heads, operations directors, CXOs) from discovery to closure
- Strong coordination and stakeholder management skills across internal teams
- Experience with pharma, food/FMCG or premium manufacturing clients
- Excellent written and spoken English
- Proficiency in AutoCAD or similar layout tools, plus Excel, PowerPoint and Word
Good to Have
- Exposure to AGV/AMR, material handling, MES or Industry 4.0 projects
- Interest in Physical AI, humanoids and emerging industrial technology
- Experience working with European clients or teams
What We Offer
- Early role in a growing India team with direct access to leadership
- Work on advanced automation and Physical AI projects for global clients
- Exposure to Siemens-partnered, pharma-grade projects
