The LLE AME Application Engineer is the technical application lead for Light Lifting Equipment solutions across the Americas. The role converts customer and sales requirements into safe, compliant, commercially viable end-to-end material handling solutions. It integrates Konecranes LLE products with below-the-hook devices, support structures and third-party equipment, while providing local second-level technical support to all AME sales streams.
RESPONSIBILITIES:
Lead application engineering for standard, configured and custom LLE opportunities from early concept through offer, order clarification and field support.
Partner with AME sales streams to interpret customer processes, specifications, duty requirements and constraints; recommend practical LLE solutions that improve safety, productivity, reliability and return on investment.
Develop application concepts, equipment selections, layouts, preliminary calculations, technical descriptions, scope boundaries, assumptions, exclusions and cost inputs required for accurate proposals and formal estimates.
Own complex or escalated local second-level support cases, coordinate resolution across functions and capture reusable technical knowledge for future opportunities.
Work closely with the Konecranes KHA factory to finalize and align offer and order drawings, confirm product application, address technical questions and support manufacturability and execution.

Engage the Global AME Product Line and Engineering teams on product application, non-standard requirements, design clarification, product feedback and continuous improvement.
Identify, qualify and collaborate with below-the-hook designers and suppliers for lifting devices, attachments and interfaces; review supplier proposals for fit, capacity, controls, documentation and integration risk.
Develop or coordinate structural support solutions, including runways, freestanding structures, foundations/interfaces and related supplier scopes required to integrate the complete system.
Coordinate third-party equipment and supplier content so mechanical, structural, electrical, controls and operational interfaces are clearly defined and integrated into one customer solution.
Provide field support for application validation, site surveys, installation/commissioning questions, troubleshooting and key customer opportunities, with travel as business needs require.
Maintain organized records of completed offers, calculations, drawings, supplier solutions and lessons learned; use these references to improve speed, consistency and quality.
