Full description
MyDefence is a leading provider of advanced counter-drone technology, delivering mission-critical solutions to defense, government, and security customers worldwide. With rapid growth in the U.S. market, the company is expanding its team and strengthening its presence within key military communities.
To support this growth, we are looking for a technically minded and relationship-driven Sales Engineer to work closely with U.S. Army customers at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. This is a customer-facing role combining technical expertise, relationship building, and commercial development to support MyDefence's continued expansion in the U.S. defense market.
Key Responsibilities As Sales Engineer, you will serve as a trusted technical and commercial partner to military customers, working closely with the Commercial Director to develop relationships, identify opportunities, and support the sales process. Your responsibilities include:

- Develop a deep understanding of customer missions, operational challenges, and technical requirements
- Work closely with the Commercial Director to identify sales opportunities and support customer engagements through closing
- Deliver product demonstrations, technical briefings, and hands-on evaluations of MyDefence's C-UAS solutions
- Translate operational requirements into technical solutions in collaboration with internal engineering and product teams
- Support military exercises, field demonstrations, and customer events at Fort Bragg and other military installations
- Provide technical guidance, product training, and follow-up support to customers
- Identify opportunities to expand MyDefence's presence within existing military networks and across relevant units and commands
- Maintain knowledge of MyDefence's product portfolio and developments within electronic warfare, RF technology, and counter-UAS systems

- U.S. citizenship and ability to obtain and maintain a security clearance
Additionally, previous experience in technical sales, field applications, C-UAS technologies, or a relevant engineering degree is preferred but not required. Relevant military experience, technical understanding, and an established network are considered more important than formal commercial sales experience.
