The successful candidate will demonstrate ownership of complex, multi‑stakeholder enterprise sales cycles, with a strong track record of selling defined software or platform‑based solutions (rather than services‑only or hardware‑led offerings). You will be fully accountable for clear quota ownership and performance metrics, consistently delivering predictable pipeline creation and revenue outcomes.

Key Responsibilities

• Hands‑on experience operating within PLM ecosystems and supporting full product lifecycle management

• Working knowledge of aviation MRO platforms and sustainment/logistics technologies across A&D operations

• Understanding of technical publication standards including S1000D, ATA, and MIL‑SPEC

• Experience with CSDB environments and associated viewer technologies

• Proven ability to win net‑new business while expanding opportunities across existing accounts and whitespace

• Comfortable owning light account‑management responsibilities within the US portfolio

• Skilled in navigating multi‑year enterprise sales cycles and managing complex RFP processes

• Consistent success building and sustaining long‑term customer engagements

• Ability to credibly articulate real‑world sustainment, maintenance, and technical publication challenges to senior technical and operational stakeholders

Skills & Experience

• 6+ years' of industry-related business development experience
• Knowledge of complex, multi-stakeholder enterprise sales cycles
• Defined software or platform-based solution (not services-only or hardware-led)
• Strong knowledge of successful marketing strategies
• Focused and goal-oriented

What success looks like

• Demonstrated command of complex accounts (programs, influence networks, buying paths).
• Strong, predictable pipeline creation across both new S1000D and legacy-spec opportunities.
• Trusted advisor status with defense and aviation customers.
• Turning evaluations into structured procurement processes.
