ABOUT MATTHEW SHARP
I\'ve built a career in positioning and navigation technology because I\'m dedicated to aligning innovative marine systems with the operational realities of boat owners and commercial operators.Over the past two decades, I\'ve had the privilege of building global sales operations from the ground up – starting at ComNav Marine where I developed international dealer networks across five continents, then taking on increasingly complex challenges at companies like Northrop Grumman Sperry Marine, JAVAD GNSS, and Rx Networks. Each role taught me that success in this industry isn\'t just about technical specifications; it\'s about understanding how your products genuinely impact people\'s experiences on the water.Now, as Sales Director at Sideshift, I\'ve found the perfect alignment of my experience and passion. Sideshift has been perfecting external thruster technology for over two decades, solving a problem every boater can relate to – taking the stress out of docking. Their revolutionary approach delivers instant response and ultimate control, giving boaters across sixty countries the confidence to enjoy their time on the water without anxiety. I\'m here to scale what works, leveraging my experience building international networks and managing technical sales to get these game-changing thrusters to more boaters who need them.The marine industry has been incredibly rewarding, and I believe in giving back by connecting great products with the people who need them most. Let\'s talk if you\'re interested in marine technology, international business development, or have questions about taking the stress out of docking.
