What You’ll Do:

• Lead the global commercial strategy for a new programmable automation platform.
• Define sales plans by geography and application (e.g. plastics, extrusion).
• Develop the value proposition, tools, and customer targeting strategies.
• Engage with product management, marketing, and local sales to drive adoption.
• Provide first-level training and support to internal sales teams.
• Benchmark competitors and position the platform effectively in target markets.
• Build a 3-year business plan including revenue targets and investment forecasts.
