Application Engineer

The Impact You'll Make

As our new Application Engineer in Sweden, you'll be a key technical partner to our customers and sales team, turning customer needs into practical drive and power conversion solutions.

You'll join a small, experienced Swedish team working across the country. This gives you a broad role with exposure to different customers, industries and applications. Rather than focusing on one specific segment, you'll use your technical expertise where it creates the most value, particularly for key customers and during the pre-sales phase.

You'll support customers from the first technical discussion through solution design, sizing and quotation to implementation. You'll have the independence to manage customer relationships in Sweden while working closely with technical and commercial colleagues across Sweden, Denmark and Norway.

The role offers flexibility in where you work. You can be based in the Stockholm, Linköping, Göteborg or Malmö area, including locations within reasonable travelling distance, and combine homeworking with customer visits and time at a Danfoss office.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Work with customers and our sales team to understand technical requirements and assisting system designs, supporting customer meetings, project scoping and pre-sales discussions.
• Dimension and select frequency converters, drives and power conversion solutions for different applications.
• Act as a trusted technical partner to key customers, taking technical ownership of their applications from initial requirements and product selection through technical clarification, verification, implementation and commissioning on site.
• Perform technical analyses, testing and evaluations against customer specifications, helping customers and sales colleagues solve technical challenges.
• Share your expertise through technical presentations, product and software training, and collaboration with sales, service partners and technical colleagues across Scandinavia.

You'll have regular contact with customers, so travel is a natural part of the role. You can expect 20-30 travel days per year, mainly within Sweden, with occasional travel to Denmark and Norway.

What We're Looking For

We're open to different educational and career paths. What matters most is a strong technical foundation, practical electrical understanding and an interest in working directly with customers.

To succeed in this role, you'll bring:

• A technical background in electrical engineering, automation, mechatronics or a related field. You may also have started your career as an electrician or electrical installer and are now ready for the next step.
• Practical electrical knowledge and an interest in motor control, frequency converters, drives and power conversion.
• The ability to work independently, translate customer requirements into practical technical solutions and manage different priorities.
• Confidence working directly with customers and supporting sales colleagues in technical and pre-sales discussions.
• Fluency in Swedish and English, both written and spoken. Swedish is essential for customer collaboration in Sweden, while English is used across our Scandinavian organization.

Experience with drives, frequency converters, power conversion, electrification or similar technologies is an advantage, but not essential. Familiarity with Danfoss Drives products or Salesforce would also be beneficial.

Most importantly, you bring technical curiosity, initiative and a willingness to learn. We value practical experience alongside formal education, so if you've built your expertise through hands-on work combined with further technical learning, we'd encourage you to apply.

What You'll Get from Us

You'll join a small, experienced Swedish team where you'll have significant independence and the opportunity to build close relationships with customers and sales colleagues. At the same time, you'll be part of a wider Scandinavian technical community where knowledge, expertise and assignments are shared across Sweden, Denmark and Norway.

The breadth of the Swedish market means you'll work with different customers and applications rather than being limited to one segment. It's an opportunity to deepen your technical expertise, develop your commercial understanding and take real ownership of customer challenges.

The position offers a flexible hybrid working model, including the possibility of working from home. Depending on where you're based and the needs of the role, your week may combine homeworking, customer visits and time at a Danfoss office.

We'll support your career growth with mentoring, learning opportunities, and access to global career paths.

You'll have the flexibility, autonomy, and support you need to do your best work while maintaining a healthy work-life balance.

You'll be part of an inclusive workplace where people of all backgrounds are respected, valued, and empowered to succeed.

You'll receive a competitive rewards package that includes benefits such as an annual bonus, paid vacation, pension plans, health insurance, and more. As a global company, these benefits vary by country and contract.

Ready to Make a Difference?

If you enjoy combining hands-on technical expertise with customer interaction and want the freedom to take ownership of technical challenges, we'd like to hear from you.

You don't need to come from one specific educational or industry background. If you have strong electrical knowledge, enjoy solving technical problems and are motivated to develop your expertise in drives and power conversion, we encourage you to apply, even if you don't meet every preferred qualification.
