Business Development Engineer (Switzerland/Lausanne)

Beschreibung:

IKOS is a leading technology consulting firm specialized in the Railway sector with an additional offer in the Energy sector. Within 19 branches in 10 countries (France, Spain, Belgium, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, UK, USA, Canada, Sweden), over 1,000 consultants work for our company on large-scale railway and energy projects internationally. Our unique market position allows us to keep expanding thanks to two key factors: * Our specialization in railway engineering, which has been our passion and expertise for 15+ years * The development of a new kind of human-sized consulting firm that focuses both on the technological achievements of our clients and the progress of our consultants At IKOS, we believe that the international technology consulting market is characterized by the need for highly-trained specialists. Therefore, when we planted the seeds to start our company in 2005, we did so with two goals in mind, which today remain at the heart of our business: * To provide technical assistance on our clients' railway projects, alongside individually curated methods to enhance competitiveness and performance. Strategies have involved shortening the innovation cycle, integrating complex products and services, achieving faster time-to-market, and keeping our clients on the cutting edge of breakthrough new technologies. * To provide a state-of-the-art, exceptional service that stands out from our competitors by offering our specialized expertise while having a local presence out in the field. To support our expertise in the railway industry, IKOS developed a second focus in the energy sector. This expansion was born through IKOS providing strategic power supply solutions for the rail sector, after which other clients doing business in both the energy and rail industries began seeking expert advice as well. Today, IKOS is an esteemed knowledge hub for the energy sector, and our clients know they can count on us.
