Are you technically curious and love creating solutions? Do you enjoy working with people and want the freedom to shape your own role?
Polytec Inc. is seeking a driven, technically minded individual to join our Technical Sales team, supporting our industry-leading Laser Surface Velocimeter (LSV) systems. In this role, you’ll collaborate with top manufacturers in steel, aluminum, converting, building materials, and beyond, helping them implement real-world measurement and control solutions.

  • Excellent communication and relationship-building skills.
  • Comfort in industrial environments, from steel mills to battery production lines.
  • Confidence engaging with everyone from operators to senior decision-makers.
  • Willingness to travel across North America, with occasional visits to our German HQ.
  • Experience in industrial sales or measurement/control systems is a plus.
