Our client is an international industrial automation and control technology business supporting manufacturers with sophisticated solutions for factory automation, motion control and embedded systems. Its collaborative, engineering-led culture brings together technical experts across Japan and Europe to solve complex customer challenges and deliver reliable, practical results.
Employees are encouraged to take ownership, make informed decisions and work closely with colleagues and customers. The company offers an attractive environment for engineers who value autonomy, international collaboration and the opportunity to contribute directly to technically demanding projects. Based in Tokyo, the Japanese organisation works regularly with engineering teams in Austria and Germany, providing a genuinely global working environment while maintaining close relationships with customers in Japan.
As a Field Application Engineer, you will integrate industrial control equipment into customer projects and provide technical support throughout implementation. Working from the Tokyo office, you will collaborate with customer engineers and internal technical departments to understand requirements, select appropriate control components and ensure effective system performance.
Your responsibilities will include supporting control-panel and PLC-related design, selecting components such as motors, noise filters and amplifiers, and coordinating technical matters with colleagues in Japan and Europe. You will participate in regular meetings with international headquarters engineering teams and visit customers across Japan when required.
This role offers significant autonomy and decision-making responsibility. It is well suited to an engineer who enjoys combining hands-on technical expertise with customer communication, project coordination and problem-solving in an international industrial automation environment.
