We are looking for a confident, proactive and customer-focused Application Engineer to join Hexagon’s Portable Metrology team. In this field-based role, you will provide expert application support for our portable metrology solutions, with a particular focus on Hexagon Laser Trackers and Absolute Arms. Working closely with customers and our sales team, you will play an important role throughout the customer journey – from pre-sales demonstrations and technical discussions to implementation, training and ongoing application support.

This is a mobile position involving frequent travel, including regular overnight stays. You should therefore enjoy working directly with customers and be comfortable spending a significant part of your working week on the road.

• Provide high-quality technical and application support for Hexagon’s portable metrology solutions, particularly Laser Trackers and Absolute Arms.
• Visit customer sites to provide hands-on application support, troubleshoot issues and identify effective solutions.
• Partner with the sales team during pre-sales activities, including customer visits, demonstrations and technical discussions.
• Develop and programme measurement routines, ensuring solutions are delivered in line with customer requirements and deadlines.
• Create training materials and deliver professional product and application training to customers.
• Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives and share knowledge and best practices across the team.
• Follow all relevant safety, operational and customer-site requirements during field activities.

• A minimum of 2 years of relevant experience in metrology, dimensional inspection, quality control or a closely related technical field, including hands-on experience with Laser Trackers.
• A solid engineering or technical foundation, with the ability to read and interpret technical drawings and confidently apply mathematical principles in a metrology environment.
• Strong communication and customer-facing skills, with the confidence to explain technical concepts, advise customers and represent Hexagon professionally.
• A proactive, self-confident and solution-oriented approach to your work.
• Willingness and flexibility to travel extensively across the region, based on customer and business needs.
• Good working knowledge of Microsoft Office and Windows environments.
• Fluent English.
