End-to-end intralogistics concepts are designed by you through the integration of hardware and software into one coherent overall solution. During the sales phase, ownership of the solution lies with you - from the initial concept through to the final customer proposal. Customer requirements are analyzed and turned into tailored automation and intralogistics concepts across mobile, stationary, and software components. Technical solution designs, cost calculations, and timelines are developed and validated by you to support strong and commercially viable customer proposals. Solutions are presented in a clear and structured way, with you acting as the technical expert toward the customer. Close alignment with Sales, partners, suppliers, Realization, Product Management, Service, and CTO teams is part of your role to ensure consistency and a smooth handover into execution. You combine KION portfolio elements with third-party technologies to create best-fit, scalable solution concepts. Clear, transferable solution designs created by you enable successful project execution beyond the sales phase. Standardization and continuous improvement are supported through your contribution of best practices, scalable solution approaches, and market feedback across the ONE Solution Design organization. ## Related Videos - [Beyond Hiring: Building a Sustainable Talent Acquisition Engine at Deutsche Bahn](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1856-beyond-hiring-building-a-sustainable-talent-acquisition-engine-at-deutsche-bahn) - [XR Demystified: Separating Facts from Fiction in 2024](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1117-xr-demystified-separating-facts-from-fiction-in-2024) - [WebAssembly Revolution: Elevating JavaScript's Reach and Performance](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1149-webassembly-revolution-elevating-javascript-s-reach-and-performance) - [Google Gemma and Open Source AI Models - Clement Farabet](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1354-google-gemma-and-open-source-ai-models-clement-farabet) - [Design as an algorithm, not as a feature](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/471-design-as-an-algorithm-not-as-a-feature) - [Remote Driving on Plant Grounds with State-of-the-Art Cloud Technologies](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/251-remote-driving-on-plant-grounds-with-state-of-the-art-cloud-technologies) ## Related Articles - [The Biggest German Tech Companies](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/424-the-biggest-german-tech-companies) - [Finding IT & Technology English-speaking Jobs in Germany ](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/446-finding-it-technology-english-speaking-jobs-in-germany) - [Jobs in Germany for Americans](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/423-jobs-in-germany-for-americans) - [Finding Jobs in Germany](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/375-finding-jobs-in-germany) - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [System change: restart as developer?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/39-system-change-restart-as-developer)
