This role acts as a technical bridge between OEM customers, sales, and Parkers global engineering teams, ensuring that customer performance requirements are converted into reliable, efficient, and cost-effective system designs. The position demands strong hands-on hydraulics expertise, customer engagement skills, and the ability to influence design decisions at the machine architecture level.
Responsibilities
- Work closely with OEM customers to understand machine functions, duty cycles, and performance requirements.
- Design and engineer mobile hydraulic and electro-hydraulic systems using Parker Hannifin products.
- Develop hydraulic system architectures including load sensing, closed center, flow sharing circuits etc.
- Select and size pumps, motors, valves, cylinders, hoses, filters, and related components.
- Perform hydraulic calculations for flow, pressure, power, efficiency, and thermal performance.
- Prepare hydraulic schematics, layouts, bills of materials, and technical documentation.
- Optimize systems for energy efficiency, controllability, noise reduction, and reliability.
- Support RFQs and techno-commercial proposals by providing technical solutions and justifications.
- Function as the technical interface between customers, sales teams, and internal engineering functions.
- Support prototype builds, system testing, and machine commissioning at customer sites.
- Analyze test, field data, and recommend design improvements or corrective actions.
- Troubleshoot hydraulic and electro-hydraulic issues related to performance, overheating, durability etc.
- Collaborate with engineering, manufacturing, quality, supply chain, and global engineering teams.

- Provide technical training and knowledge support to sales, service teams, and customers.
- Deliver optimized hydraulic system solutions that meet OEM performance, reliability, and cost targets.
- Ensure technical accuracy and completeness of hydraulic designs, calculations, schematics, and BOMs.
- Drive OEM design wins by influencing machine architecture toward Parker system solutions.
- Support timely and competitive RFQ responses with technically sound and differentiated proposals.
- Achieve right-first-time application delivery through effective validation, testing, and risk mitigation.
- Resolve field and customer issues efficiently using structured root-cause analysis and corrective actions.
- Optimize system efficiency and total cost of ownership through value engineering and design improvements.
- Collaborate effectively across functions and regions to ensure alignment with Parker standards and processes.
- Maintain compliance with Parker, OEM, ISO, and SAE standards in all application engineering activities.
- Build and sustain technical credibility with customers through professional engagement, training, and support.
- Decide on hydraulic system architecture (open center, closed center, load sensing, electro-hydraulic) within approved Parker guidelines.
- Approve selection and sizing of Parker hydraulic components to meet application requirements and standards.
- Determine technical feasibility and risk level of customer applications during RFQ and concept stages.
- Decide on system optimization approaches to improve efficiency, controllability, and reliability.
- Approve hydraulic schematics, calculations, and application documentation before customer release.
- Decide on prototype configuration and test parameters for system validation and machine trials.
- Recommend design changes or corrective actions based on test results and field feedback.
- Decide on trade-offs between performance, cost, and standardization within defined authority limits.
- Escalate and recommend high-risk or non-standard applications for management or global engineering review.
