KY Full Time
POSTED ON 6/25/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 8/24/2026

As a key architect of the Phillips Value Chain, you aren't just an engineer; you are a catalyst for industrial transformation. We are seeking a relentless life-long learner and technical artist who views CNC machining and CAM programming as a master tradecraft. You will take radical ownership of our customers' most complex challenges, immersing yourself in the latest cutting-edge software, work-holding innovations, and tooling technologies. By mastering everything from 5-axis simultaneous milling to complex mill-turn applications, you will become the indispensable link that bridges the gap between raw hardware and peak manufacturing performance.

 Your mission is to dismantle the status quo and set the global benchmark for technical education and application. You will revolutionize our curriculum, transforming Phillip’s training courses into a world-class experience that delivers legendary value and compels customers to return time and time again. Whether you are performing high-stakes machine simulations, stock verifications, or onsite post-processor integrations, your work will set the bar by which all other resellers are measured. You will provide expert-level diagnostic support to our service teams and deliver breathtaking live demonstrations that prove the untapped profit potential of 5-axis and mill: turn technology, effectively turning every machine setup into a masterclass of efficiency.

 Beyond the machine tool, you are a strategic partner to our sales force and a mentor to our clients. You will arm our sales teams with the technical firepower they need—from lightning-fast time studies to articulating the high-level ROI of CAD/CAM software—to ensure customers understand the "Phillips Advantage." You’ll be a laser-focused problem solver who thrives on the road, traveling to customer sites to lead run-offs and overcome any obstacle in your path. By expanding our scope of work through relentless innovation and building a reputation as the industry’s most sought-after resource, you won't just support the market—you will lead it.

In our 65 year history, Phillips has grown from a handful of employees to over 900 supplying and supporting manufacturing technology in the United States and around the world. Compensation at Phillips is based on the market and your individual level of contribution. The expected pay range for a qualified person in this role is between $90,000.00 and $120,000.00 annually plus bonus opportunities.
