Angled Spade Technologies (AST), the firearms company, hired Joe Timbo as vice president of sales.

Timbo leads AST’s commercial strategy across its direct-to-consumer channel and expanding dealer/distributor network. He is working directly with dealers and major online retailers on the company’s line of suppressors, suppressor adapters, muzzle devices, precision slides, and complete pistols.

Timbo brings 15 years of sales leadership across the technology and firearms industries. Past roles include director of ggrowth, Beringer Technology Group; vice president of sales, Anura; management consultant, Stryk Group; and sales operations manager, Aramark.

“Joe approaches sales leadership the way we engineer products: with intent” said Matt Dulude, co-founder of Angled Spade Technologies. “He has scaled a business through an acquisition, he knows this industry’s dealers and customers, and he brings an energy people respond to immediately. Bringing him on was an easy decision.”

Timbo said, “After working with these guys in the past, I knew they would end up making their own future. By their nature, they are competitive, creative and meticulous … and you can see it in every part we make. We have an experienced team, cutting-edge products and a loyal customer base … all good things for an emerging brand.”
