About SoftInWay

SoftInWay is a global engineering software company specializing in turbomachinery, thermal\-fluid, and system simulation solutions. Our flagship platform, AxSTREAM, is used by leading aerospace, energy, and industrial companies worldwide to design, analyze, and optimize rotating machinery and complex thermo\-fluid systems.

We work with engineers who build real machines—not slideware.

Role Overview

We are looking for a Simulation Software Sales Executive based in Bristol with proven experience selling engineering or simulation software into technical organizations. This role is focused on aerospace, defense, and high\-end industrial customers, with an emphasis on long\-term relationships and consultative selling.

This is not a transactional sales role. Success requires understanding how engineers think, how technical decisions are made, and how simulation tools create real business value.

Key Responsibilities

  • Sell turbomachinery, CFD, 1D thermal/fluid, or system simulation software to aerospace, defense, and advanced engineering customers

  • Manage the full sales cycle: prospecting, discovery, technical alignment, pricing, negotiation, and closing

  • Build and expand relationships with engineering managers, technical directors, and decision\-makers

  • Work closely with application engineers to support evaluations, demos, and technical discussions

  • Leverage existing customer relationships where applicable

  • Maintain accurate pipeline and forecasts

  • Represent SoftInWay professionally in customer meetings, conferences, and industry events
Required Experience \& Skills
  • Proven experience selling simulation or engineering software, ideally:

  • Turbomachinery design tools

  • 1D thermal / fluid / system simulation

  • CFD, FEA, or related CAE tools

  • Experience selling to aerospace, defense, space, or advanced industrial customers

  • Ability to engage confidently with engineers and technical leaders

  • Strong consultative selling and negotiation skills

  • Comfortable working in a global, technical sales environment

  • Based in or willing to work from Bristol.
Highly Preferred
  • Existing customer relationships in aerospace, defense, or turbomachinery sectors

  • Passion for aerospace, propulsion, rotating machinery, or complex engineering systems

  • Experience selling high\-value, complex software solutions with long sales cycles
What We Offer
  • Opportunity to sell deep, respected engineering software with real technical differentiation

  • Access to global customers and advanced engineering applications

  • Competitive compensation with performance\-based incentives

  • High autonomy and visibility within a specialized, expert\-driven company
