Senior Manager, Specialty Sales - USA

At Arc'teryx, a relentless pursuit of design perfection and technological advancement defines our approach to creating high-performance outdoor apparel and equipment. Founded in the Canadian Coast Mountains, our innovation is driven by the need to solve problems for mountain athletes in the most demanding conditions. This philosophy of 'there is always a better way' permeates every aspect of our work, from initial concept to finished product. Our design process is meticulous, with every stitch, seam, and zipper placed with intention to maximize function and durability while maintaining a clean, minimalist aesthetic. We were pioneers in utilizing GORE-TEX technology, introducing the groundbreaking Alpha SV jacket in 1998, which set a new standard for lightweight, waterproof, and breathable outerwear. This commitment to using cutting-edge materials and construction techniques continues to be a cornerstone of our brand.

Our innovation extends beyond apparel. The Vapor harness, one of our earliest products, revolutionized climbing gear with its advanced thermolamination technology. We've also brought our technical expertise to footwear, developing shoes designed for rugged mountain terrains, incorporating features like GORE-TEX waterproofing and Vibram outsoles for superior grip and stability. Arc'teryx is also exploring futuristic advancements, such as the collaboration to develop powered exoskeleton apparel, aiming to empower individuals to push their physical boundaries in the outdoors. This dedication to innovation is not just about creating superior products; it's about enabling exploration, pushing limits, and fostering a deeper connection with the natural world. We continuously challenge existing norms, seeking to radically improve the status quo in outdoor gear through a combination of scientific research, rigorous testing in real-world conditions, and a deep understanding of our users' needs.
