About The Position

Phillips Additive Manufacturing is seeking a high-energy, technically-minded Sales Engineer to serve as our market trailblazer, opening doors and fueling the front end of our business development engine in the Great Lakes region. In this vital role, you will be the face of our entry-to-mid-level additive technologies, engaging education-focused accounts, nurturing early-stage adopters, and conducting consultative, application-fit discoveries to help customers confidently identify the right solutions. By proactively prospecting high-fit accounts, qualifying inbound leads, and expanding our market footprint, you will transform raw curiosity into high-value pipeline, establishing yourself as a trusted advisor from day one. This is a highly collaborative position where your strategic knowledge will enable you to feed an enterprise-level ecosystem.

Armed with exceptional CRM discipline, a passion for continuous technical learning, and a collaborative spirit that bridges the gap between our applications team, OEM partners, and clients, you will champion Phillips' mission and build a career at the absolute cutting edge of advanced manufacturing.
