Qvision Technology Seeking Director of North America Sales & Marketing

Qvision software is a patent-pending technology with a large market niche. It is the most cost-effective way to show video of changing conditions to large numbers of users at once without the cost and headaches of streaming. A vast array of markets worldwide need to share video online. Qvision is not a repackaged solution to that longstanding problem; it is a brand new technology that fills a huge void across a wide range of industries and is especially interesting to the ITS sector.  

This position will appeal to the successful professional who desires to be part of the next generation technology in video capture and delivery, working alongside a highly skilled team in a ground floor situation with company ownership potential. It is an outstanding opportunity for an experienced, successful transportation industry insider to manage and grow our North American sales/marketing push.
