Data Centers have been driving significant growth across the digital infrastructure segment in recent years. Schneider Electric delivers end-to-end data center solutions across power, cooling, digital, and sustainability domains, supporting customers throughout the full data center lifecycle - from concept and design to deployment and operation.
As a Solution Consultant, you will support opportunities of medium to high technical and commercial complexity, primarily in the early selling and solution shaping phases. You will work closely with Sales, Opportunity Leaders, and Solution Architects to help customers understand how Schneider Electric's data center solutions can address their business, technical, and operational requirements.
Your role is to act as a trusted technical and commercial advisor, translating customer needs and constraints into credible, high-level solution concepts and differentiated value propositions, while ensuring alignment with Schneider Electric's validated architectures and portfolio.
The role focuses on early-phase solution consulting and value positioning. Detailed system engineering, final technical validation, and execution ownership are handled by Solution Architects, System Architects, and project delivery teams.

- Support early opportunity phases by helping shape solution concepts across Schneider Electric's data center portfolio, including power, cooling, digital systems, and sustainability solutions.

- Support the review of customer RFQs and help identify compliance aspects, deviations, assumptions, and constraints, in close collaboration with Solution Architects.
- Help translate customer requirements into feasible solution options, without owning detailed engineering or final technical design.
- Explain and demonstrate the technical and business benefits of proposed solutions to customers, including aspects such as resilience, scalability, energy efficiency, sustainability, and speed-to-market.
- Coordinate with internal stakeholders (Sales, Solution Architects, Business Units, Application Centers) to ensure solution coherence and consistency during the tendering phase.
- Support customer meetings, workshops, and presentations as a solution and portfolio expert.
- Maintain awareness of technology trends and data center market developments to continuously enhance solution positioning.
- Promote collaboration and effective communication among all stakeholders involved in an opportunity.
