US Direct Sales Representative (WEST) - Industrial Inkjet Printing Systems

Tourmaline Enterprises Inc • Temecula, CA

6d • $35,000 - $55,000

About The Position

For over 27 years, Tourmaline Enterprises has been a trusted partner to manufacturing and packaging teams worldwide, providing reliable industrial inkjet printing systems for coding and marking production lines. As a small, family-owned, woman-owned business, we’ve built our reputation on accountability, transparency, and results—delivering solutions that help clients meet production needs for lot numbers, barcodes, expiration dates, logos, and more, all backed by responsive U.S.-based support.

With a global reach across 10+ countries and 500+ clients, Tourmaline is experiencing rapid growth and is intentionally scaling with the right people and structure in place. Despite our expansion, we’ve maintained a highly collaborative and supportive culture across departments, where teams work closely together to solve problems and drive outcomes.

We are looking for driven, high-performing sales professionals who are motivated to be part of that growth. If you’re looking for “just a job,” this likely won’t be the right fit. But if you’re energized by the opportunity to help build something meaningful—and have the passion and perseverance to excel in a performance-driven environment—this is a strong opportunity to grow with us.
