• Lead discovery meetings, technical workshops, and in‑depth requirement assessments to shape customer needs early in the buying cycle
• Drive the creation of tailored solution concepts and product adaptations in close, agile collaboration with Product Management, Engineering, and Manufacturing
• Develop and present winning solution proposals, system architectures, and high‑impact technical presentations together with internal experts
• Actively guide customers through prototype builds, evaluation units, testing, and approval phases to accelerate decision‑making and shorten sales cycles
• Build and expand long‑term, trust‑based relationships with technical influencers, specifiers, and commercial decision‑makers
• Continuously monitor market trends, competitor moves, and emerging technologies in IPCs, embedded computing, and Industry 4.0 to identify new hunting opportunities
• Aggressively manage and grow a high‑velocity pipeline, deliver accurate forecasting, and drive contract negotiations to consistent, above‑quota deal closure
