Job description

Senior Sales Engineer – Aviation & Test Systems

Indianapolis, IN (Hybrid Travel Role | ~30–40% Travel)

A leading global engineering and test systems organization is seeking a Senior Sales Engineer to drive growth across the aviation and aerospace sector. This role sits at the intersection of technical expertise and strategic sales, supporting major OEM relationships and expanding market share across North America.

This is a high-impact, customer-facing role with visibility into cutting-edge aviation test systems, simulation, and engineered solutions.

Why This Role Stands Out:

  • Direct engagement with top aerospace OEMs and industry leaders
  • Ownership of high-value, long-cycle technical sales
  • Opportunity to influence future aviation testing and engineering solutions
  • Strong internal collaboration with global engineering and product teams
  • High autonomy with entrepreneurial ownership of territory and pipeline

What You'll Do:

  • Serve as a trusted advisor to aerospace customers, building long-term partnerships
  • Drive new business development and account growth across aviation clients
  • Lead the full sales lifecycle: discovery, solution design, proposal, negotiation, and close
  • Translate complex technical requirements into tailored solutions
  • Collaborate with engineering, product, and global teams to deliver high-impact outcomes
  • Maintain and grow a strong pipeline of capital equipment/test system opportunities

What You Bring:

  • 5–7+ years of experience in technical sales, engineering, or test systems
  • Background in aerospace, defense, or aviation environments
  • Experience working with or selling into OEMs or complex engineering organizations
  • Ability to navigate long sales cycles and high-value CAPEX solutions
  • Strong communication, relationship-building, and influencing skills
  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering or related field (Mechanical, Electrical, Mechatronics, etc.)

Preferred Experience:

  • Aviation component testing or simulation
  • Capital equipment or engineered systems sales
  • Exposure to ITAR/EAR, FAR/DFARS, or regulated environments
  • Military or hands-on technical experience highly valued

Compensation & Benefits:

  • Base salary: $110K–$120K
  • Comprehensive benefits package
  • Relocation support available for top candidates

Why Partner with Northwest Talent Solutions:

Northwest Talent Solutions delivers high-impact career opportunities aligned to long-term growth, not just job placement.

  • Direct access to exclusive, high-priority roles not widely advertised
  • Transparent, high-touch communication throughout the process
  • Deep expertise in engineering, aerospace, and technical sales markets
  • Focus on career alignment, not volume recruiting

Confidential search. Qualified candidates will be contacted directly with full details.
