You will work closely with sales team members, including Account Managers, to understand client requirements, identify potential risks and communicate with stakeholders. At the level of Design Engineer 2 you will bring advanced skills, flexibility, and growing leadership capabilities to system design. Building on foundational experience, you will independently handle a wide range of designs, stepping into complex projects needing guidance infrequently. At this level, you refine your technical expertise, develop specializations, and take on higher-level design challenges while maintaining ownership of accurate, actionable design packages. Day-To-Day Responsibilities: Pre-Sales Design and Proposal Efforts * Independently collaborate with Account Managers to understand customer requirements and translate them into functional system designs. * Participate in client discussions to explain design concepts and demonstrate how proposed systems meet their needs with minimal oversight. * Provide accurate labor estimates and material requirements to support sales proposal creation. * Develop and maintain comprehensive design standards packages tailored for large and repeat customers accounts. Design Responsibilities * Develop detailed system documentation, including a bill of materials, conceptual block diagrams, infrastructure plans, and scopes of work. * Determine infrastructure requirements, such as power, data, and conduit, during pre-sales efforts and coordinate with general contractors. * Identify, account for, and communicate about project risks, site conditions, scheduling requirements, and dependencies in the design. * Review pre-construction documentation to ensure clarity and alignment with project objectives. * Coordinate with vendors, architects, consultants and contractors to align designs with project constraints during design development. * Review and validate designs from junior Engineers and guide on adherence to best-practices. Project Responsibilities * Support project teams during implementation and provide technical input as the "design authority" as needed. * Perform additional tasks, responsibilities, and projects as needed to support the team and organization, ensuring flexibility in adapting to evolving priorities and objectives. ## Related Videos - [WebAssembly Revolution: Elevating JavaScript's Reach and Performance](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1149-webassembly-revolution-elevating-javascript-s-reach-and-performance) - [How Cisco embraced a DevOps culture within its network engineering team](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/99-how-cisco-embraced-a-devops-culture-within-its-network-engineering-team) - [Agile work at CARIAD – Creating a customer web application for controlling the vehicle ](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/200-agile-work-at-cariad-creating-a-customer-web-application-for-controlling-the-vehicle) - [Computer Vision from the Edge to the Cloud done easy](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/263-computer-vision-from-the-edge-to-the-cloud-done-easy) - [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) - [Your Infrastructure Is Not a Playground: AI Agents for Infra Done Right](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2084-your-infrastructure-is-not-a-playground-ai-agents-for-infra-done-right) ## Related Articles - [How software is steering vehicle technology](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/515-how-software-is-steering-vehicle-technology) - [How to Find Tech Jobs in Vienna](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/292-how-to-find-tech-jobs-in-vienna) - [How We Built a Worry-Free System That Runs for 10+ Years – And What We’d Do Again](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/751-how-we-built-a-worry-free-system-that-runs-for-10-years-and-what-we-d-do-again) - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [How to Write a CV and Interview if You Don't Fully Qualify For The Job](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/183-how-to-write-a-cv-and-interview-if-you-don-t-fully-qualify-for-the-job) - [What’s the Difference between a Junior, Mid, and Senior Developer?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/238-what-s-the-difference-between-a-junior-mid-and-senior-developer)
