A Snapshot of Your Day

As an Application Engineer for Gimpel Valves, you will support a fast-paced Sales and Marketing environment focused on engineered valve solutions for steam turbine applications. You will work closely with internal teams, external customers, engineering firms, and end users to understand application needs, review technical and commercial requirements, and develop proposals for new valves, replacement valves, spare units, upgrades, repairs, and modernization solutions. Your day may include evaluating customer specifications, reviewing drawings and job history, aligning with cross-functional teams, preparing proposal content, and helping shape solutions that meet customer operating needs, safety requirements, outage schedules, and commercial objectives.

How You’ll Make an Impact

• Manage assigned customer inquiries from initial RFQ review through proposal release, including review of specifications, drawings, job order history, operating conditions, outage schedules, and stakeholder input.
• Develop engineered Gimpel valve solutions for trip and throttle valve applications, including OOTTV, TMTTV, EHTTV, spare valve units, steam section replacements, actuator upgrades, trip block upgrades, and modernization opportunities.
• Prepare complete proposal inputs, including scope, cost information, pricing recommendations, assumptions, clarifications, exclusions, lead times, documentation requirements, inspection and test requirements, and commercial inputs.
• Coordinate with Engineering, Manufacturing, Supply Chain, Field Service, Project Management, Sales, and other stakeholders to align technical scope, proposal strategy, customer expectations, and internal approvals.
• Support bundled solutions with Field Service, customer clarification meetings, quote reviews, and inquiry-to-order accuracy to ensure proposals are properly scoped, priced, and scheduled.
• Consolidate technical and commercial scope after order receipt, support handoff to Project Management, and participate in project follow-up discussions to review profitability and identify potential budget overruns.

What You Bring

• Associate degree with 5–10 years of experience in a technical, commercial, proposal, valve, rotating equipment, or similar role. In lieu of degree, experience will be considered. Those with more experience may be considered for a more senior level.
