Important: you possess a fluent level of English, both spoken and written, allowing you to interact effectively with our clients, partners, and international teams.

As part of the development of our airport activity, we are looking for an Automation Pre-Sales Engineer to join our Pre-Project team.

You will be involved from the earliest phases of large-scale airport projects, contributing to the definition of innovative technical solutions adapted to our clients' needs within the framework of national and international tenders.

In connection with the sales, technical, project, and purchasing teams, you will participate in building competitive offers, ensuring the balance between performance, feasibility, costs, and deadlines.

Your main missions will be as follows:

  • Analyze client needs and tender requirements to identify the technical, functional, and economic challenges of the projects.
  • Participate in the definition of architectures and automation solutions adapted to complex systems intended for airport infrastructures.
  • Design and structure the technical components of offers in collaboration with various internal teams.
  • Evaluate the feasibility of proposed solutions and contribute to the optimization of technical and economic choices.
  • Coordinate exchanges with internal and external stakeholders, in France and internationally.
  • Capitalize on feedback and contribute to the continuous improvement of methods, tools, and proposed solutions.

This position will allow you to develop a global vision of major projects, within an international, collaborative, and innovation-oriented environment. You have training or experience in the field of automation, control-command, automated systems, or industrial computing.

You may come from various environments: design office, commissioning, systems integration, technical project management, technical support, or pre-project.

Previous experience in responding to tenders or in the airport sector is appreciated, but not essential.

You are recognized for:

  • your analytical spirit;
  • your ability to synthesize;
  • your technical curiosity;
  • your rigor;
  • your interpersonal skills;
  • your taste for teamwork.
