Job Details: Job Location: Lee Spring Brooklyn - Brooklyn, NY, Position Type: Full Time, Salary Range: $70000.00 - $80000.00Salary/year, Job Category: Sales, Description
About us:
Founded in Brooklyn in 1918 by Robert Lee Johannsen, Lee Spring has grown into a global manufacturer with locations across the U.S., Europe, Latin America, and Asia — stocking more than 25,000 catalog products alongside custom-engineered solutions.
If you're looking for a special place to build or grow your career, you've found it. As a Sales Engineer at Lee Spring, you won't just sell a catalog part number — you'll act as a customer's technical partner, translating force, motion, and fatigue requirements into a spring or wire form solution that works in their application.
The Sales Engineer is a customer-facing, technically fluent role responsible for growing new business and expanding existing accounts by delivering value-based spring and formed wire solutions. You'll serve as the connective tissue between sales, engineering, and operations — making sure every solution that reaches a customer is manufacturable, cost-effective, and built to perform.
What You’ll Do:
Customer-Facing & Business Development
Research and identify new account opportunities within assigned territories
Build long-term relationships with customer engineering and purchasing teams
Confer with customers to assess application needs — force, motion, fatigue resistance, and durability
Technical Estimation & Quoting
Prepare technical estimates and formal quotations that balance performance, manufacturability, cost, and lead time
Develop, present, and respond to proposals, including RFP responses for industry-specific solutions
Design & Program Support
Support spring and formed wire design work in partnership with internal engineering
Guide projects through prototyping, testing, PPAP, and customer qualification
Support new program launches with analytics-driven problem solving and continuous improvement
Challenges You’ll Navigate
Winning trust with engineers who need precision, not a sales pitch
Moving fast on quotes while making sure what's quoted can be built
Managing a full project lifecycle — from first conversation through production launch — without losing momentum
Qualifications: Qualifications
Job Requirements:
Bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering or related field
2–4 years of experience spanning engineering and sales-facing work
Working knowledge of engineering principles and their practical application to product design
Strong communication skills — written, verbal, and presentation
Comfort with quantitative work: quoting, cost analysis, and technical proposal development
No prior spring industry experience required — Lee Spring provides training and team support to help you succeed
