Success in this role comes from understanding customer challenges, developing long-term relationships, and helping bring proven products into new markets.

• Build relationships with OEMs, distributors, engineers, purchasing teams, and other key customer stakeholders
• Develop market intelligence around customer needs, competitors, pricing, and emerging opportunities
• Partner with Product Management to identify product enhancements and future growth opportunities
• Support distributors and sales teams with technical guidance and joint customer development efforts
• Utilize Microsoft Dynamics 365 to manage opportunities and customer activity
• Travel approximately 50-60% throughout North America, typically involving 2-3 weeks per month of weekday travel with 2-3 overnight stays during travel weeks.

What We're Looking For

• Experience in business development, technical sales, product management, or application engineering within industrial manufacturing
• Hydraulic, pneumatic, fluid power, lubrication, oil packaging, or related industry experience is highly preferred
• Ability to understand customer applications and recommend technical solutions
• Strong communication, presentation, and relationship-building skills
• Self-motivated professional who enjoys developing new business and opening new markets
• Manufacturing experience is preferred
• Certified Fluid Power Hydraulic Specialist certification is a plus, or willingness to obtain it
