Amanda Malpass selected as a Top 10 Finalist for the 2025 NAASE Sales Engineer of the Year

Finalists were selected through a multi‑judge review led by the NAASE Board with support from external advisors. Judges scored submissions independently, and then the scores were calibrated. Evaluation focused on the last 12 months: measurable customer and revenue impact, innovation in solutions and process, and leadership or service to the SE community.

Amanda is a sales engineering leader who has grown from civil and airfield design into customer-facing work, pairing deep infrastructure expertise with clear storytelling. This year, she guided a DOT-aligned product redesign, utilizing FEA to secure conditional approval and deliver safer, lighter castings that reduce emissions and costs. She also built SOPs and training for a five-person SE team, speeding ramp, and raising standards. Her nomination recognizes this redesign and enablement.
