Sesotec, Inc. · Bartlett, Illinois
About Sesotec
Sesotec is a global manufacturer of inspection and sorting equipment, including X-ray inspection systems, metal detectors and material sorting systems. Our technology helps food processors and plastics manufacturers protect their products, their brands and their customers. Sesotec Inc., headquartered in Bartlett, IL, is the North American subsidiary of our German parent company, backed by decades of engineering expertise and a growing installed base across the U.S.
The Role
We're looking for a high-energy, early-career Sales Engineer to grow our business across the Midwest. You'll sit at the intersection of engineering and sales: walking production floors, understanding how a customer's line runs, and recommending the right inspection solution to keep contaminants out of their product.
You don't need inspection equipment experience. We'll train you on our technology. What you bring is a technical degree, 2 to 5 years in sales or applications engineering, ideally around industrial automation, and the drive to build relationships and win new business.
Own and grow a Midwest territory, prospecting new food & beverage processing accounts and expanding existing ones
Visit customer plants to understand their production lines, products and contamination risks, then recommend the inspection equipment
Run product tests and live demonstrations, working with our applications team to prove detection performance on the customer's own product
Build quotes and proposals, negotiate terms, and close orders
Partner with OEMs, packaging integrators and channel partners in the territory to uncover projects early
Keep pipeline, forecasts and activity current in our CRM
Coordinate with service, project management and our German engineering teams to deliver a smooth handoff from order to installation
Represent Sesotec at trade shows and regional customer events
Bring market and competitor feedback back to product management
What You Bring
Bachelor's degree in mechanical, electrical, industrial, manufacturing or a related engineering or technical field
2 to 5 years of experience in a sales engineering, applications engineering or technical sales role
A high-energy, enthusiastic approach: you like meeting people, picking up the phone and walking a plant floor
Clear communicator who can explain technical concepts to plant managers, QA leads and engineers alike
Willingness to travel roughly 50% across the Midwest
Experience in industrial automation, such as packaging machinery, conveying, controls, robotics or vision systems
Exposure to food processing or plastics manufacturing environments
Familiarity with CRM tools
Understanding of food safety programs (HACCP, GFSI, FSMA) or quality systems
Not required:
prior experience with X-ray, metal detection or sorting equipment. We'll teach you.

$80,000 to $100,000, based on experience and qualifications
