Technical Sales – Mechatronics & Robotics

Location: Huntley, IL with 25% travel

Are you passionate about automation, robotics, and motion control — and thrive at the intersection of engineering and sales? Join a growing team that blends cutting-edge technology with customer-driven innovation.

As a Technical Sales Engineer you’ll serve as a key technical resource and sales partner for OEMs, industrial distributors, and system integrators across North America. You’ll combine your engineering know-how with strong communication and relationship-building skills to deliver smart, customized solutions that help customers succeed.

What You’ll Do

  • Identify and develop relationships with OEMs, distributors, and system integrators in the mechatronics and robotics space.
  • Build and nurture leads across the U.S. and Canada — from first contact through post-sale support.
  • Conduct research, cold calls, and outreach to discover new business opportunities.
  • Lead technical product presentations and engaging “lunch & learn” sessions.
  • Manage inbound leads from digital campaigns, trade shows, and e-commerce.
  • Provide pre-sales application support, helping customers find creative technical solutions.
  • Collaborate closely with Sales, Marketing, and Engineering to ensure seamless customer experiences.
  • Support account management, quotes, and training initiatives.
  • Participate in trade shows and industry events to grow brand awareness and capture new leads.

What You Bring

  • Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical, Mechatronic, or Electrical Engineering (required).
  • 2+ years of professional experience; 3–5 years in automation, motion control, or robotics preferred.
  • Experience with inside sales, outbound prospecting, or customer engagement.
  • Familiarity with tools like HubSpot, Infor, ZoomInfo, or CRM/ERP systems.
  • Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings and blueprints.
  • Strong communication, presentation, and follow-up skills.
  • A goal-oriented, energetic, and self-motivated approach to work.

Why You’ll Love It Here

  • Be part of a fast-growing team at the forefront of robotics and mechatronic innovation.
  • Collaborate with engineers, sales professionals, and technical experts across North America.
  • Opportunities for career growth, training, and travel to customer sites and trade shows.
  • Work in an environment that values initiative, curiosity, and creativity.
