Smith Names Joe Martini Trading Manager of Its Boston Office

Houston, TX (September 23, 2026) – Smith, a leading global distributor of electronic components and semiconductors, today announces the appointment of Joe Martini to the position of Trading Manager of its Boston office. In this role, he will support the success of Smith’s salespeople in New England while connecting customers across the region with the critical components they need.

“Building this incredible team in Boston has been the highlight of my career—no deal can compare,” said Joe. “I look forward to helping them continue to grow at a company they can trust and solving key issues that are affecting our customers. The attitude for this office will be that nothing can stand in our way.”

Joe joined Smith in March 2025, where he has built upon his strong existing relationships and developed new ones within New England. As Smith expanded its footprint across North America, he took on additional responsibilities, helping to open the Boston office this past March alongside Mike Sutter, Vice President of North America. Joe brings years of experience in the semiconductor industry and an inquisitive mindset to his newest role, helping him further enhance the strengths of Smith’s salesforce in the city. Under Joe’s leadership, the Boston office will be set up to continue providing strategic support to Smith’s partners from one of the fastest-growing technological hubs in the country.

“Joe’s ability to get the most out of the people he works with is the hallmark of a great leader,” said Mike. “He is consistently one of the hardest-working people at Smith, and that dedication to serving his customers has helped shape the core identity of our new Boston office. I look forward to seeing his continued growth as a manager as he leads the team in supporting major technology players across New England.”
