Inside Technical Sales Specialist - Spindle Manufacturing

We are a leading manufacturer and repair specialist in high-speed precision spindles and automation components. For nearly three decades, we have been at the forefront of the industry, partnering with manufacturers across woodworking, metalworking, aerospace, automotive, composites, stone, and robotics sectors. Our mission is to make the world more productive by delivering superior spindle performance, unmatched reliability, and rapid technical support that minimizes costly machine downtime. We offer a complete range of solutions, including new spindle manufacturing, expert repairs and rebuilds (often exceeding OEM standards), predictive health monitoring systems, custom engineering, and comprehensive lifecycle support. Known for our technical expertise and customer-first approach, we help manufacturers optimize their CNC operations and stay ahead in an increasingly competitive, high-precision manufacturing landscape.

We are seeking a driven, technically savvy Technical Sales Representative who thrives at the intersection of deep product knowledge and strong relationship-building.

In this hybrid role (primarily remote with occasional travel to our North Carolina headquarters and key customer sites), you will own the full sales cycle from proactive lead generation through to successful deal closure. You will work closely with our experienced application engineers and product management team to ensure every recommendation is technically sound and perfectly aligned with customer needs. If you are passionate about consultative selling in technical industrial markets and motivated by long-term customer success paired with exceptional earning potential, this is an outstanding career opportunity.
