HESH

HESH is a Human-Centric Operating System for the craft economy — an integrated platform combining PLM (Product Lifecycle Management), MES (Manufacturing Execution System), ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning), and MRP (Material Requirements Planning), all driven by AI agents. We help manual and light-manufacturing businesses replace spreadsheets and paper with a single system that runs their entire production.

Position Overview

We're looking for a Sales and Partnership Manager with experience selling ERP, MES, or other manufacturing software to own our B2B sales cycle and build our partner ecosystem. This is a hands-on role with real ownership: you'll run demos, close deals, develop partnerships, and help shape the sales playbook from the ground up — working directly with the founder.

Responsibilities

Prospect and develop new business opportunities 

Run product demonstrations tailored to each client's production setup and business goals.

Manage the full sales cycle — from first contact and discovery to a signed contract.

Build and grow a partner network: integrators, industry associations, consultants, and adjacent service providers.

Identify cross-sell and up-sell opportunities within the existing client base.

Build long-term relationships with key accounts and ensure a smooth hand-off to the Customer Success team.

Represent HESH at industry trade shows, conferences, and business events, and turn networking into pipeline.

Develop and execute sales strategies together with the founder and marketing team.

Work closely with product and tech teams to bring client feedback back into the roadmap.

Keep the CRM up to date, track pipeline, report on sales performance, and monitor market and competitor trends.

Requirements

2+ years of experience selling ERP, MES, PLM, MRP, or other manufacturing/industrial software in a B2B setting.

Comfortable with complex sales cycles involving multiple stakeholders (operations, IT, ownership).

Confident negotiating with business owners and top management, with a track record of closing deals.

Excellent communication and presentation skills — both discovery and demo.

Customer-oriented mindset with the ability to build long-term, trust-based relationships.

Ability to work cross-functionally with product, marketing, and technical teams.

Self-organized, proactive, and results-driven — you take initiative without waiting for instructions.

English — Upper-Intermediate or higher.

Nice to Have

Experience selling into fashion, garment, textile, or adjacent light-manufacturing industries.

Domain knowledge of apparel production, supply chain, or factory operations.

An established network of contacts among production owners, COOs, or other decision makers.

Experience building or managing partner/reseller channels.

Experience with CRM systems and modern sales tooling.

What We Offer

Competitive base salary and a sales bonus you directly influence with your results.

Long-term, stable employment.

Fully remote work.

Flexible schedule.

Annual performance reviews.

18 days of paid vacation per year.

10 days of paid sick leave per year.

Real influence on the product — your market feedback shapes the roadmap.

Fast decision-making and direct access to the founder, without corporate bureaucracy.

HESH is a Production OS for hand crafted manufacturers — PLM, MES, ERP, and MRP in one platform, powered by AI agents. We're looking for a Launch Manager / Production Consultant who does two things: helps factories optimize their production, and owns the rollout of HESH, from the first conversation to the point where the factory runs on the platform daily and sees real value.

This is a role for someone who understands how a factory actually runs and can turn that understanding into both advice and results.

What you'll do

Production consulting (pre-sale & standalone value)

• Run production audits and optimization consultations for factories: map their real processes, find bottlenecks, waste, and blind spots
• Show factories, concretely, how to plan better, distribute tasks smarter, and track output, with HESH as the tool that makes it stick
• Turn these consultations into a trust-building entry point that naturally opens the door to working with HESH

Launch & implementation (post-sale)

• Own onboarding for new customers: plan the launch, align on milestones, keep timelines on track
• Configure the platform for each factory's processes (specs/BOMs, tech packs, routings, work centers, roles)
• Organize data migration and setup (items, orders, inventory)
• Train the customer's teams, from technologists and pattern makers to floor supervisors and management
• Drive customers to their first value (TTFV) fast and reduce early churn

Product bridge

• Feed real factory insight back to the product team: translate what you see on the floor into requirements and escalate blockers

What we expect

• Real understanding of manufacturing processes, ideally garment/textile, but adjacent discrete manufacturing works too
• Experience implementing or administering ERP/MES/MRP systems, or a strong implementation or production-improvement background
• The ability to walk into a factory, quickly grasp how it works, and articulate where it loses time and money
• Strong customer-facing skills: consulting, training, and expectation management
• Analytical, process-oriented thinking that breaks factory chaos into clear, repeatable steps
• Fluent English; Ukrainian is a strong plus for local rollouts

Nice to have

• Experience in bridal / occasion-wear or fashion manufacturing
• Lean / production-optimization or industrial-engineering background
• Familiarity with ERP systems (BAS, 1C, SAP, or similar), inventory, and production planning
• Technical foundation: basic SQL, understanding of integrations and data import
• SaaS / startup experience and comfort with a fast-changing pace
