About this role
Germany | Remote / Field-Based | Full-time | Permanent
Our client is a Swiss technology company developing an AI-powered industrial monitoring solution that combines thermal imaging hardware and software. The technology helps industrial facilities prevent fires, detect equipment issues early, and reduce costly unplanned downtime.
As the company continues to expand across the DACH market, our client is looking for an experienced Account Executive to join the team in Germany. This is a hands-on sales and account development role for someone who can build their own pipeline, win new industrial customers, and grow those relationships over time — from an initial deployment at one facility to broader, multi-site partnerships.
The role is remote and field-based, combining home-based work with regular customer site visits across Germany.
What you'll do
- Own the full sales cycle — from prospecting and discovery to site visits, proposals, negotiation, and closing
- Build your own pipeline and actively develop new business
- Sell to industrial customers, working with Plant Managers, Operations, Maintenance & Reliability, Safety, Procurement, and executive stakeholders
- Own your accounts after the initial sale and grow them over time
- Expand successful deployments from one area to the whole facility and across multiple customer sites
- Build strong business cases around fire prevention, equipment reliability, downtime, and ROI
- Maintain accurate CRM, forecasting, and account plans
- Regularly visit customer sites and attend relevant industry events
What we're looking for
- Proven experience in complex B2B sales of technical or industrial solutions
- Experience selling directly to factories, plants, or other industrial facilities
- Strong new business / hunter skills and experience generating your own pipeline
- Strong account development experience — upselling, expansion, or multi-site growth
- Experience working with operational and technical decision-makers
- Comfortable with regular travel and face-to-face customer meetings
- Based in Germany
- Fluent German, with proven experience selling in the German market
Experience in industrial automation, fire protection, condition monitoring, predictive maintenance, industrial IoT, machine vision, or safety technology would be highly relevant.
What’s offered
- Permanent full-time employment
- Remote setup with regular customer-facing field work
- Competitive base salary + uncapped variable compensation
- Commission on both new business and account expansion
- Equity
- Direct access to company leadership and significant ownership of your accounts
- Opportunity to join the commercial team at an early stage of its growth in Germany

About this listing
Published on Ashby under the board identifier Onhires, which is the name the employer’s own job board carries. RoleSprint has not verified the company’s registered or trading name, so it is shown exactly as published rather than tidied up.
RoleSprint is not the employer and not a recruiter. Applications are made on the employer’s own site and never reach us; what RoleSprint does is help you decide whether a role is worth your time and prepare for it if it is.
