Vice President of Sales

At Continuous Composites Inc., we are redefining what is possible in advanced manufacturing. Our patented CF3D® technology — the world’s first continuous fiber 3D printing platform — enables real-time deposition and curing of continuous fiber composites, unlocking geometries and performance that traditional methods cannot achieve. We work with the most demanding customers in Aerospace and Defense, from hypersonic vehicles to primary aircraft structures, and we are scaling from development into production. We are looking for a Vice President of Sales to lead our commercial organization and drive revenue growth across machine sales, parts production, and government-funded development programs.

Build and Expand Relationships Continue the momentum built with existing accounts and expand Continuous Composites’ presence into new programs, platforms, and customer organizations. Grow the pipeline by identifying where CF3D® solves real performance, weight, and lead-time problems. Be Technically Credible Earn trust with engineers, program managers, and procurement teams by understanding the technology deeply enough to shape what gets proposed and sold. You are not an order-taker — you add value in every customer interaction by connecting CF3D® capabilities to the customer’s actual technical challenges.
