About the Role

The Product Application Engineer serves as the technical specialist for Energy Management Systems (EMS), low-voltage power metering, power quality monitoring, and digital energy solutions. This role acts as a liaison between engineering, sales, partners, and customers, supporting the specification, deployment, integration, and optimization of energy monitoring solutions to enhance energy performance, manage assets, reduce costs, achieve sustainability goals, and improve electrical system visibility. A strong understanding of electrical distribution systems, power monitoring, energy management architectures, communication networks, and software platforms across various environments is essential. Familiarity with Building Management Systems (BMS) and smart building technologies is a plus as energy, electrical, and building operational data become more integrated.

Responsibilities

Provide technical expertise in power metering, power quality monitoring, EMS software, gateways, and associated infrastructure.
Support system architecture, metering strategies, communications design, and reporting frameworks.
Recommend solutions that meet customer requirements, industry standards, and energy management best practices.
Advise on sub-metering, energy visibility, power quality, carbon reporting, and electrical network optimization.
Support integration of EMS platforms with BMS and smart building systems.
Work with sales teams to position EMS and power monitoring solutions.
Participate in customer meetings, workshops, demonstrations, and proof-of-concept activities.
Support technical proposals, tender reviews, and solution design.
Collaborate with global teams to develop products and provide application examples and reference architectures.
Support system integrators, consultants, contractors, and commissioning engineers.
Assist integration between metering devices, EMS platforms, SCADA, BMS, cloud, and enterprise systems.
Support industry-standard protocols including Modbus, BACnet, MQTT, OPC UA, and REST APIs.
Act as a trusted advisor for consultants, facility managers, energy managers, and end users.
Help customers translate energy objectives into practical monitoring and optimization strategies.
Deliver technical training internally and externally.
Identify market trends and customer requirements to support future product development.

Requirements

Strong knowledge of low-voltage electrical distribution, power metering, and Energy Management Systems.
Experience with platforms such as Power Monitoring Expert (PME), EcoStruxure Power Operation (EPO), Resource Advisor, or similar solutions.
Understanding of power quality, load analysis, demand monitoring, and energy reporting.
Experience with Modbus, BACnet, Ethernet, serial communications, and IP networking.
Knowledge of networking fundamentals, cybersecurity principles, and remote connectivity.
Strong communication and stakeholder engagement skills.
Experience working with consultants, system integrators, contractors, switchboard manufacturers, or energy specialists.
Knowledge of switchgear, protection systems, cloud-connected energy platforms, and digital energy solutions.
Familiarity with ISO 50001, Part L, energy efficiency programmes, Net Zero initiatives, sustainability reporting, and carbon reduction.
Experience with power quality analysis, energy reporting, and metering applications.
Exposure to BMS and smart building platforms such as EcoStruxure Building Operation, Niagara, Siemens, Trend, Honeywell, or Distech.
Understanding of EMS-to-BMS integration and building automation protocols such as BACnet.
