Sales Engineer

Have you ever wondered what

it's

like to work at a place where company culture is

really important?

Well, at Ahaus, it's the lens through which we view everything we do. In addition to great wages and benefits, we offer a supportive, family-first work environment that you won't find anywhere else. The average tenure of our phenomenal team of 100+ talented individuals is 10+ years, and we've got several folks who have been with us for 40+ years and counting- we believe that speaks volumes. We couldn't be prouder of our team.

Thanks to the hard work of our team through the years, we're getting ready to celebrate our 80th anniversary. We've grown from a small tooling shop in a backyard in Richmond, Indiana to a $30M+ tooling, engineering and custom automation firm. Throughout that growth though, we've never lost our small business feel, where our leaders truly care about the people working for them - and it shows. Sometimes our customers come to us looking for a specific need and an idea of how to address it, and sometimes we hear the challenge and jump in from a blank slate to create the perfect solution.

Ahaus is well known for flexible start times Monday through Friday, generous paid time off, paid holidays, employee recognition and incentives, volunteer and outreach events, employee breakfasts and barbeques, pitch-ins, summer games, company outings, shared hobbies, and many other perks. It's precisely why Ahaus enjoys a reputation as a place people want to be.

Our people love their hobbies; from building cars, tractors, firearms, and robots to marksmanship and trap shooting, axe throwing, cycling, restoring old furniture, music, and the arts. We have a team of diversely talented, skilled tradespeople, and we are always looking to welcome new talent if it's a good fit, not just for our organization, but for the prospective candidate too. If you're a team player who is looking for not just a job, but a place where you can build a long-term career, we'd love to hear from you.

We're looking for a Sales Engineer to cover outside sales of custom automation, robotics, machining & engineering solutions in our Southwest US territory – someone, with a little help in getting acclimated, who can hit the ground running. This territory includes Arkansas, Kansas, Louisiana, Missouri, Oklahoma, and Texas. If you're a team player with skills and outside sales experience that align with the functions below, we would like to hear from you.
