About Monolithic Power Systems

Selling at MPS means winning sockets: a technical sales engineer owns a set of accounts or a territory, works the customer's hardware engineers until an MPS part is designed into the board, carries a revenue target, and steers the manufacturers' reps and distribution branches that cover the same customers, as the Bay Area seat does across telecom, networking, industrial, test and measurement and consumer accounts. A separate MPSNow team serves mass-market customers through distribution, with technical sales engineers in San Jose, Kirkland, Detroit and West Palm Beach and, in Ottobrunn, Germany, an associate field sales engineer track for new graduates that rotates through field applications, customer service, marketing and the product lines before taking customers. Product specialists sit beside the territory sellers: a business development manager grows the audio module line with North American customers (automotive account knowledge preferred), a Beijing sales engineer works the mass market through distributors, and a Shenzhen seat sells AC/DC parts to key accounts and runs distributor forecasts and inventory. Field applications engineers are part of the sales offices abroad, backing design wins on memory and SSD power in South Korea, PC accounts in Tokyo, the Nagoya region and India, while the Hangzhou and Nanjing titles that read "AE" are applications engineers who define and test analog chips and write reference designs, not account executives. Remote field sales engineers in the UK, Romania and Hungary need power supply design or FAE experience, and China adds part-time sales internships for university students.
