The partner will identify prospective buyers, understand their requirements, and work with Seekfactory's India and China teams to develop quotations, coordinate technical discussions, negotiate terms, and close orders. This is initially a commission-only entrepreneurial opportunity, with no fixed salary before the compensation milestone. Seekfactory provides machinery sourcing, supplier access, quotation support, and China-side coordination. The sales partner concentrates on customer development, relationship management, and sales closure.\nResponsibilities:\nIdentify factories, MSMEs, entrepreneurs, and industrial customers planning to purchase machinery.\nGenerate qualified enquiries and capture the application, capacity, specifications, budget, and expected purchase timeline.\nIntroduce Seekfactory and suitable machinery solutions to prospective customers.\nCoordinate customer discussions, meetings, presentations, and follow-ups.\nWork with Seekfactory's India and China teams to prepare appropriate machinery solutions and quotations.\nSupport commercial negotiations and customer coordination until the order is finalized.\nBuild professional customer relationships that support repeat orders and referrals.\nMaintain timely updates on active leads, quotations, negotiations, and expected orders.\nSupport Provided by Seekfactory:\nMachinery sourcing and identification of verified manufacturers.\nTechnical quotations, documentation, videos, catalogues, and presentations.\nManufacturer price negotiations and supplier communication.\nChina-side factory visits and coordination.\nCommercial and technical discussion support.\nInspection and quality coordination where applicable.\nShipping and export coordination.\nInstallation and after-sales coordination where agreed.\nCommission Structure:\nThe 50:50 sharing applies to the net sales commission or net sales margin actually earned and received by Seekfactory from the transaction. It does not apply to the total machinery invoice value.\nCompensation Milestone: Once the Sales Partner completes three machinery sales or generates US$100,000 in revenue, whichever occurs first, the Sales Partner's compensation will be finalized at a salary of US$1,500 per month plus a 20% profit commission. Target: 1 to 2 machine-closed sales every month. The basis, calculation, and payment terms for the 20% commission from profit will be defined in the formal Sales Partner Agreement.\nCommission Payment:\nCommission becomes payable after the corresponding customer payment and/or supplier commission attributable to the transaction has been received and cleared by Seekfactory. If customer payments are received in stages, the sales partner's commission may be released proportionately against amounts actually received. VAT or GST, withholding tax, TDS, and other statutory deductions will be handled under applicable country law.\nLead Protection and Non-Circumvention:\nA genuine customer or lead will be associated with the Sales Partner after it is registered and accepted by\nSeekfactory for the agreed protection period. Seekfactory will not intentionally bypass the sales partner to avoid paying the agreed commission.\nThe Sales Partner must not bypass Seekfactory to transact directly with manufacturers, suppliers, or business contacts introduced through Seekfactory.\nIndependent Relationship:\nThis role is an independent freelance business relationship and does not constitute permanent employment with Seekfactory.\nNo fixed salary before the compensation milestone.\nNo mandatory office attendance.\nNo fixed working hours.\nNo geographical restriction within India.\nPreferred Partner Profile:\nIndustrial machinery sales professionals.\nRetired machinery or engineering sales executives.\nIndependent sales consultants and machinery dealers.\nEngineers with industrial customer networks.\nB2B sales professionals with relationships among Indian MSMEs and manufacturers.\nIndustry professionals seeking to build an independent machinery sales business without maintaining their own China sourcing infrastructure.\nPrevious machinery sales experience is preferred. Strong industrial relationships and a demonstrated ability to generate genuine business opportunities are also valuable.\nConfidentiality:\nCustomer information, supplier information, factory pricing, quotations, technical information, and commercial arrangements shared under the partnership must remain confidential.\nNeither party may intentionally circumvent the other in relation to customers or suppliers introduced through the partnership.\nFormal Agreement Before Onboarding:\nSelected partners will enter into a separate Seekfactory Freelance Sales Partner Agreement before business begins.\nThe agreement will define net commission, lead registration and protection, repeat orders, payment timing, refunds and cancellations, taxes, confidentiality, non-circumvention, and the process for resolving duplicate lead claims. This job description is a recruitment document and does not replace the formal agreement.","description_format":"text","description_chars":5134,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":[],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-25T11:41:26Z"}],"liveness":{"score":81,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.81,"p_room":1,"age_days":4,"expected_fill_days":21,"reasons":["seen:4","win:early","comp:junior"],"computed_at":"2026-09-30T05:45:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/seekfactory-sales-engineer-trainee","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/seekfactory-sales-engineer-trainee.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-01T00:06:34Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","usage":{"tier":"crawler","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":91,"day_limit":5000,"remaining_today":4909,"minute_limit":60,"resets_at":"2026-10-02T00:00:00Z"}}}
