Requirements

You are someone who takes initiative and is motivated by building new relationships and opportunities from the ground up.

You’re naturally curious about how businesses operate and can identify where automation can create meaningful impact in manufacturing processes. You don’t wait for opportunities to come to you - you go out and find them, engaging new customers and opening doors in industries where there isn’t an established presence yet.

You’re comfortable navigating both technical and commercial conversations, asking the right questions, and guiding customers toward solutions that make sense for their operations. You bring a practical, solutions-oriented mindset and are confident working through ambiguity to move opportunities forward.

Self-directed and organized, you manage your time, pipeline, and priorities effectively while collaborating with internal teams to deliver strong outcomes. You’re energized by the challenge of growing a territory and contributing to something that is still being built.
