Aerospace and Defense Sales Engineer at Eurofins

About the Opportunity Eurofins Electrical and Electronics is building its Aerospace, Defense, and Military testing vertical and is looking for an Aerospace and Defense Sales Engineer to help lead that growth from scratch.

That is intentional. Defense customers conduct witness testing on site and we need someone present who can own those relationships in the room, support the technical team, and raise the energy and expertise level of the building.
