• Deliver compelling technical and commercial presentations to support proposals and bids.
• Represent the company at industry events, trade shows, and customer meetings across the DACH region.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with internal teams to align customer needs with the company’s technology roadmap.
• Maintain a strong pipeline and deliver accurate sales forecasting and reporting.

Your Profile

We’re looking for someone who combines technical credibility with commercial tenacity. You’ll be confident managing complex sales cycles and experienced in growing business in technically demanding markets.

You should bring

• Proven experience in business development or technical sales within power electronics or semiconductors.
• Knowledge of products such as:
  • IGBT modules
  • Power assemblies
  • High-power UPS systems
  • Industrial motor drives and converters
  • HVDC systems
• Experience engaging with customers such as Siemens, ABB, Schneider Electric, or similar.
