About James Madden
I’m an Enterprise Software Sales Executive at Plex, by Rockwell Automation, where I partner with manufacturers of all sizes — from single-site innovators to global enterprises — to help them modernize operations, connect their plant floors to their top floors, and drive measurable business outcomes.Over the past four years with Plex, I’ve consistently exceeded goals by combining deep manufacturing process understanding with a consultative, results-driven approach. My experience spans the full sales cycle — from identifying operational pain points to aligning complex digital transformation initiatives that deliver efficiency, visibility, and control across production, quality, and finance.Prior to Plex, I spent several years at NetSuite and Oracle helping organizations in manufacturing, retail, and wholesale distribution streamline operations through ERP and cloud solutions. This background gives me a unique perspective on how technology can unify data and decision-making across the enterprise.I’m also actively involved in the Precision Metalforming Association, serving as a board member for both the Lone Star and East Michigan Chapters — continuing my commitment to the manufacturing community and its ongoing innovation.I’m passionate about helping manufacturers unlock the next level of performance and growth through connected, data-driven operations. If you’re exploring how to optimize production, improve visibility, or accelerate your digital transformation journey — let’s connect.
