We’re one of the fastest-growing industrial AI companies in the world. We grew ~700% last year, tripled headcount, and expect to double or triple again as demand keeps accelerating—because the product works in production: high accuracy, fast deployment, and an operator-friendly experience that makes real factory rollouts possible (not just pilots).
The opportunity (why this role is different) We’re intentionally building this team across the U.S. strong candidates help define where we expand next. Your location, network, and ability to open and grow a region will directly shape your territory.
This is not a cold-start, 0→1 sales role. We already have major customers, executive buy-in, and proven deployments running in real factories today. Your job is to take that momentum and multiply it across factories, regions, and customer sites.
You’ll be selling at the exact moment manufacturing leadership is demanding AI outcomes. This is one of the easiest and most tangible ways for a factory to “enter AI” because it directly improves yield, scrap, throughput, and labor.
We’re supply constrained at times because demand is so strong—the more you’re out in the field, the more you will sell.
What You’ll Own We’re not pre-allocating fixed territories, we’re building them intentionally around talent and opportunity.
Why We Win (and Why Selling Overview Is Different)
This is “delta selling” with a product customers genuinely want.
The key to winning isn’t slick talk—it’s becoming a product expert, running high-signal evaluations, and helping the customer move quickly.
Support model (you’re not alone) This is a high-ownership role, but it is not hero mode. You’ll have a dedicated applications and engineering escalation path. We do not run hero mode as a strategy.
We also have a proven evaluation playbook and a defined path from first station to expansion—so you’re not inventing the process from scratch.
What We’re Looking For Path A: Proven seller (traditional)
Path B: Highly technical “conversion to sales” (also great) You don’t need a traditional sales resume to be successful here.
If you’re a strong controls engineer / automation engineer / manufacturing engineer (or equivalent) from a top manufacturer, and you’re social, likeable, and want to step into a customer-facing role you can be a great fit.
This product sells itself when the evaluation is run correctly. The key to selling is becoming a product expert, earning trust on the factory floor, and driving decisions with clear execution.
