The Opportunity

A rapidly growing industrial technology company is expanding its Midwest sales team.

They help manufacturers improve uptime, reduce unplanned downtime, and gain real-time visibility into equipment performance through advanced sensing and performance-monitoring solutions.

The company is investing in emerging sales talent with strong drive and commercial instincts. This is not a senior enterprise-level role — it’s built for motivated sellers ready to own a territory and grow. This environment rewards self-starters, with support available but without a highly structured training or lead-generation engine.

If you’re competitive, resilient, and energized by new business development in industrial environments, this is a strong next step.

What You’ll Do

This is a full-cycle territory role focused on new customer acquisition.

You will:

• Proactively prospect and generate your own pipeline through outreach, networking, and field engagement
• Run discovery with plant, engineering, operations, and reliability leaders
• Translate operational pain points into clear business value
• Lead presentations, proposals, and negotiations
• Partner with internal technical specialists to shape solutions
• Manage pipeline, forecasting, and CRM activity

You’ll have strong product and technical support, but are expected to independently drive activity and pipeline.

Who This Role Is For

Experience:

• 3–7 years of B2B sales experience (SDR, BDR, Inside Sales, or early AE)
• Exposure to industrial, manufacturing, automation, hardware, or plant-facing customers preferred
• Track record of hitting activity and revenue targets

You likely are:

• A true hunter who enjoys prospecting
• Competitive and income-motivated
• Comfortable working independently with limited structure 
• Comfortable building your own approach to pipeline generation
• Curious about how industrial operations work
• Organized and accountable
• Willing to travel regionally and spend time at customer sites

This is ideal for SDRs or junior sellers ready to step into full territory ownership.

Why It’s Attractive

Performance-Driven Comp Plan

• Competitive base salary up to $150k & accelerators
• Uncapped commission
