Sales and Channel Leadership

  • Own revenue and gross margin; design and lead a multi-channel model (direct enterprise/key accounts, distribution/VARs, e-commerce/inside sales) to exceed targets.
  • Build a scalable key account program; negotiate complex enterprise deals; develop distributor programs, enablement, and joint business plans.
  • Partner with marketing to drive demand generation, digital funnel performance, and brand visibility; enforce CRM and pipeline rigor.

Operational Excellence

  • Lead S&OP and end-to-end operations: supply chain, local inventory policy, order fulfillment, service and calibration, and customer support.
  • Ensure regional compliance (trade/export controls, quality, safety, financial controls) and continuously improve cost, cycle time, and customer experience (e.g., response and repair TAT, NPS).

People and Culture

  • Recruit, develop, and retain a diverse, high-performing team; establish clear objectives, coaching, and succession plans.
  • Lead across time zones; resolve cross-regional issues; model values, ethics, and a performance-and-learning mindset.
  • Foster a culture of ownership, innovation, and collaboration—building the business with an entrepreneurial spirit.

External Engagement

  • Represent RIGOL with key customers, channel partners, universities, standards bodies, and industry forums; elevate the brand through thought leadership and public speaking.

Qualifications

  • 10+ years of experience in test & measurement, electronics, or adjacent industrial technology; 5+ years in P&L/general management or senior commercial leadership with a strong growth track record.
  • Proven success scaling revenue via both direct enterprise sales and distribution channels; expert negotiator with strong executive presence.
  • Deep applications understanding across oscilloscopes, spectrum/RF, power, and compliance testing; adept at translating customer needs into product and GTM actions.
  • Strong financial and operational acumen: budgeting, pricing, margin management, working capital, S&OP, and data-driven decision making.
  • Experience operating across the United States and Latin America; Spanish and/or Portuguese is a plus.
  • Comfortable collaborating with Asia-based HQ and manufacturing; cross-cultural fluency and familiarity with Asian business practices are advantageous.
  • Bachelor’s degree in business with strong technical aptitude, or in engineering with commercial/financial acumen; MBA is a plus.
