This individual will interact directly with customers on-site, walk facilities, evaluate installations, and collaborate with internal engineering teams to tailor technical solutions. The ideal candidate thrives in entrepreneurial environments and excels at translating complex technology into clear business value.

  • Serve as a trusted technical advisor focused on long-term value delivery


Minimum Qualifications

  • Strong understanding of process analyzers, measurement systems, and industrial instrumentation

  • Ability to communicate and sell complex technology solutions and ROI-driven outcomes

  • Hands-on experience collaborating with engineers/techs on system installations or technical integrations

  • Strong pipeline management, forecasting, and deal execution skills

  • Ability to excel in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment


Ideal Profile

  • Proven track record selling technical measurement, analyzer, spectroscopy, or process control systems
