Senior Software & Connectivity Support Engineer (Industrial / Electrical Systems)

This is a hybrid position (3/2) based in Istanbul (Turkey), Budapest (Hungary), Belgrade (Serbia) or Casablanka (Morocco)

We are looking for a senior technical support engineer who acts as the first escalation point for complex software and connectivity issues within Eaton's electrical and energy-management portfolio.
In this role, you will support customers, partners, and internal teams by troubleshooting non-standard software and networking issues, working closely with R&D, product management, and L3 engineering teams, and contributing to process improvement, knowledge sharing, and customer satisfaction initiatives.

The position combines advanced technical troubleshooting, customer-facing communication, and internal technical leadership in an industrial environment.

What you'll do:

  • Act as first escalation point for non-standard software and connectivity issues
  • Diagnose and resolve complex customer cases in collaboration with L3 engineers, R&D, and Product Management
  • Provide advanced technical support via phone, email, and web-based channels
  • Support trial licence management and deployment for partners and customers
  • Deliver technical training to partners, customers, and internal teams (remote and onsite)
  • Contribute to process improvements, documentation, and knowledge-base development
  • Participate in continuous improvement (CI) initiatives and best-practice sharing
  • Support technical reporting and KPI tracking at team level
  • Act as a trusted technical expert for software and connectivity topics in the electrical portfolio

Qualifications and skills:

Core technical skills:

  • Software troubleshooting (industrial applications)
  • Networking fundamentals (TCP/IP, industrial communication protocols)
  • Electrical products & energy-management systems
  • Software-hardware interaction
  • Technical documentation

Professional skills:

  • Customer-facing technical communication
  • Structured problem-solving
  • Cross-functional collaboration
  • Training & knowledge transfer
  • Continuous improvement mindset

Languages:

  • Fluent Business English (mandatory)
  • French (very nice to have)

What we offer:

  • Competitive compensation and benefits package
  • Flexible working solutions
  • Excellent working environment - safety and ethics are important for us
  • Culture & Values - we are more than the products we invent and produce - the way we do business is just as important. At Eaton, our values and culture define who we are - both individually and as an organization - and direct our activities every day
  • Learning & Development - we invest in our employees for the long term - not just with salary and benefits, but with ongoing learning and development opportunities, made available through Eaton University
