About the Job

Technical Sales Engineer - Packaging Automation (PA Territory)

Build your pipeline. Own your territory. Get paid for what you close.

This is a true hunter role. No accounts are handed to you-you are responsible for generating your own opportunities, building your pipeline, and closing business. If you're looking for inbound leads or a maintenance role, this is not it.

We work directly with manufacturers to improve how their production lines perform-delivering packaging equipment, industrial printing systems, and fully integrated automation solutions.

The Role:

  • You operate like a business owner within your territory.
  • You'll prospect, open doors, and close deals-working directly with plant managers, operations leaders, and engineers to identify inefficiencies and implement real solutions.
  • If you have experience selling into manufacturing or industrial environments, this is a high-income opportunity.


What You'll Do:

  • Candidates must be based in the Philadelphia area and willing to travel throughout PA, NJ, DE, and MD.
  • Prospect daily (calls, email, LinkedIn, on-site visits)
  • Build and manage your own pipeline from scratch
  • Identify operational gaps and position solutions
  • Sell packaging equipment, coding systems, and automation solutions
  • Conduct on-site demos and technical presentations
  • Work with internal engineering to configure systems
  • Negotiate pricing and close deals
  • Attend trade shows and generate new business
  • Maintain CRM activity, pipeline, and forecasting
  • Support customers post-sale for long-term success


What You Bring:

  • Proven outbound sales / hunter experience
  • Background in packaging, automation, or industrial equipment sales
  • Comfortable selling into manufacturing environments
  • Strong communication and closing skills
  • Self-driven and competitive mindset
  • Ability to manage a territory independently
  • Technical aptitude (engineering background is a plus)
  • CRM experience required


What You'll Get:

  • $70,000-$250,000+ (base + uncapped commission)
  • Health, Dental, Life Insurance
  • 401(k) with company match
  • Paid time off
  • Growth into larger territories and leadership
