Sales Manager (m/f/d)

About the Job

RockQ Technologies (formerly NC-Vision) is a Stuttgart-based software company. We build an AI-powered no-code platform that manufacturers use to run MES, traceability and quality on the shop floor, to connect machines and legacy systems, and to bring AI into production through our ML Studio, from quality checks to predictive maintenance. We don’t sell big-bang projects. We help customers modernise step by step, one line or one plant at a time, keeping what works. Our platform is live with manufacturers such as Continental, Novoferm and Murrelektronik, and we are backed by RockawayQ, part of Rockaway Capital.

Your Responsibilities

• Map and prioritise target customers among mid-cap manufacturers in DACH, starting with your own network
• Build the top of the funnel: direct outreach, industry events, partners and LinkedIn
• Run proofs of value with our consultants and tech team to turn interest into real projects
• Own the revenue target for new and existing customers
• Lead offers, negotiations and closing, with an eye on margin and not just volume
• Grow accounts from a first line or plant to a rollout across sites, and from MES and traceability to AI use cases
• Build partnerships with system integrators and distributors where they widen our reach
• Make sure new customers are onboarded smoothly, together with our delivery team

Your Profile

• 5+ years of B2B software sales, with a track record of closing and growing complex deals
• From the manufacturing industry: you understand how a plant runs, where production hurts and who decides on investment
• A real network among mid-sized manufacturers in DACH, with credible references from projects you brought in and saw delivered
• Confident selling software and AI solutions shaped together with the customer, not just off-the-shelf products
• Ideally experience at an MES, manufacturing software, automation or industrial IoT company
• Commercially driven and hands-on, comfortable building things in a small, growing team
• German native or native-level German, fluent English

What We Offer

• Own the commercial success of an innovative, AI-powered no-code platform for manufacturing.
• A direct line to leadership and real influence on go-to-market strategy.
• A dynamic, innovative environment with room for growth and responsibility.
• A culture that values respect, open feedback and sustainable work practices.
• A hybrid working model with in-office collaboration and remote flexibility.
• Competitive conditions and a focus on long-term collaboration.
