Qualifications

• 2+ years of experience in product support, technical sales, or a related product/commercial role.
• Working knowledge of quoting processes; comfort with CRM and ERP systems (SugarSell preferred; AS/400 and Edge/Atlas quoting tools a plus).
• Bachelor's degree or equivalent combination of education and experience.

• Own technical specifications and product configuration for assigned lines - the go-to source of expertise for RSMs, reps, and clients.
• Champion assigned product lines: partner with Product Management to build use cases, best-practice guides, and reusable demonstration assets for internal teams.
• Partner with Engineering, Product Marketing, and COS to keep solution documentation and roadmap alignment consistent across teams.
• Field technical product questions from Regional Sales Managers, reps, and clients, providing strategic recommendations where a standard answer doesn't apply.
• Conduct daily SDA reviews, approving within delegated DoA or escalating to leadership when thresholds are exceeded.
• Ensure adherence to transactional control conditions on quotes and product changes, flagging areas of operational risk as they develop.
• Own the liaison relationship between Regional Sales Managers, plants, and Operations on product-related matters.
• Quoting is a shared responsibility. The Product Specialist owns the technical side of every quote - configuration, feasibility, and sign-off - while the COS owns intake, routing, and the commercial side.
