Comfort speaking with engineers, production managers, and sourcing teams
Ability to understand parts, drawings, specs, and volumes
Existing manufacturing relationships (preferred)
Valid driver’s license and ability to access secure/government facilities
If you want to sell real manufacturing work — not small job-shop quotes — this is your opportunity.
