Rust Automation & Controls is a family-owned company that's been solving tough industrial problems since 1976. From our West Jordan, UT headquarters we support customers across the western half of the country with instrumentation, valves, and controls. We're proud of a friendly, low-ego team where people actually stick around — and we're growing.
Start your sales career with a team that will actually train you.
No industrial experience? Perfect — we'll teach you the rest. If you're organized, dependable, and you like helping people solve problems, we'll hand you the product knowledge, the tools, and a clear path to grow. This is a great first step for someone coming out of customer service, retail, food service, a trade, the military, or school who's ready to build a real career.
