ZwitterCo is actively seeking a Senior Applications Engineer to become a pivotal contributor to their innovative team. This role is focused on the effective and high-impact application of ZwitterCo’s advanced membrane technology across multiple industries, particularly in the fields of water and wastewater applications. The successful candidate will take on both internal and external responsibilities, acting as a subject matter expert on how ZwitterCo membranes can be implemented and integrated into larger industrial processes and wastewater operations.
The primary responsibilities for this role are as follows:
Serve as both an internal and customer-facing expert for ZwitterCo products and targeted applications/markets, focusing particularly on opportunities present in Europe.
Collaborate with the sales team during the customer discovery process to evaluate commercial opportunities, assessing their technical feasibility and risk.
Provide essential post-sales technical support for partners and end-users, ensuring customer success through site visits to monitor product performance or troubleshoot any issues.
Develop systematic guidelines for process and system design for spiral-wound membrane products aimed at integration and fabrication partners in target applications and markets.
Lead the development of ZwitterCo's internal knowledge database by assimilating existing research and planning internal studies to gather product performance data.
Create detailed customer proposals, entailing design and cost estimates for membrane systems using internal datasets, alongside proofreading and reviewing proposals written by junior applications engineers.
Facilitate in-person and online technical training sessions for OEM engineers and end-users.
Evaluate, mitigate, and communicate technical risks associated with new projects or partnerships.
Author technical guidance documents, delivering both oral and written presentations to customers, industry partners, and ZwitterCo business leaders as necessary.
Mentor less experienced members of the applications engineering team.
To qualify for the Senior Applications Engineer position at ZwitterCo, candidates must possess certain educational and experiential credentials:
A university degree in an engineering discipline is essential unless the candidate has extensive previous work experience relevant to the role. Degrees in chemical, environmental, or mechanical engineering are preferred.
A minimum of 6+ years of experience with crossflow membrane systems is highly desired.
Subject matter expertise in at least one of the following fields:
Broad knowledge of non-membrane water and wastewater treatment technologies like coagulation/flocculation and dissolved air flotation.
Familiarity with current product lines for RO/NF/UF membranes available in the market.
Excellent communication skills—both written and oral—are required, including comfort with public speaking (hosting training sessions, webinars, etc.). Fluency in English is mandatory, while French and/or Arabic proficiency is highly desired.
Awareness of local practices and regulations affecting water and wastewater treatment is a plus.
This full-time position is fully remote, catering to candidates located in Europe. However, access to a major international airport is beneficial due to the expected 25% travel requirement. Travel mainly involves site visits for customer success and attending conferences, with most trips anticipated to be short in duration (2-3 nights). Additionally, the role may necessitate travel to ZwitterCo offices in the US for meetings, training, and workshops on several occasions throughout the year.
While salaries are not explicitly detailed, compensation is stated to be commensurate with experience and location. The package may also include equity opportunities if applicable.
ZwitterCo is at the forefront of materials science, having developed a groundbreaking class of zwitterionic membranes that exhibit unparalleled fouling resistance. Their membrane solutions surpass the limitations of conventional filtration, making it viable to treat complex wastewater, purify water for reuse, and enhance efficiency in food processing applications.
ZwitterCo serves customers across 20+ countries in diverse sectors, such as food and beverage, agriculture, and industry. The company is committed to investing in its technology, equipment, and global service platform to aid its industrial clientele in achieving ambitious sustainability and growth targets.
Noteworthy accolades include being honored as the Global Water Intelligence's 2023 Breakthrough Water Technology Company of the Year and one of Fast Company's Top Innovators of 2024. This makes ZwitterCo an attractive employer in a rapidly evolving industry.
