  • Build relationships with decision-makers across development, engineering, procurement, construction, finance, operations, and executive leadership.
  • Develop strategic account plans for priority customers and maintain a robust, measurable pipeline of near-, medium-, and long-term opportunities.
  • Deliver accurate bookings, revenue, probability, timing, pricing, and margin forecasts.
  • Lead responses to RFIs, RFQs, and RFPs by coordinating technical and commercial inputs across the company.
  • Structure and negotiate equipment-supply agreements, master-supply agreements, project contracts, warranties, service agreements, and related commercial terms.
  • Position solutions based on system performance, reliability, energy yield, safety, serviceability, total cost of ownership, and long-term customer value.
  • Work closely with CTO and Product Group to translate market and customer requirements into product priorities.
  • Partner with Field Applications Engineering to ensure proposed solutions satisfy project design, interconnection, certification, and operational requirements.
  • Track market pricing, competitor strategies, project awards, technology trends, trade conditions, and regulatory developments.
  • Build relationships with consultants, independent engineers, lenders, and other parties that influence product qualification and project bankability.
  • Represent the company at customer meetings, conferences, trade associations, and major industry events.

  • 10+ years of progressively responsible sales or business-development commercial experience in utility-scale solar, energy storage, power conversion, electrical equipment, or energy infrastructure.
  • Demonstrated record of personally originating and closing (not solely team-credited) complex, multimillion-dollar utility-scale transactions.
  • Named, current decision-maker relationships with U.S. solar developers, IPPs, EPC contractors, utilities, or renewable-energy asset owners — able to speak to specific active accounts.
  • Strong understanding of the U.S. utility-scale solar market and the full project lifecycle, including development, interconnection, permitting, financing, qualification, procurement, construction, commissioning, and operations.
  • Experience leading complex RFP responses and negotiating pricing, warranties, contractual terms, delivery commitments, and service obligations.
  • Strong financial and commercial judgment, including familiarity with project economics, energy yield, levelized cost of energy, and total cost of ownership.
  • Excellent executive communication, presentation, negotiation, and influencing skills, including the ability to translate system architecture, power-conversion equipment, and grid requirements into commercial terms.
  • Strong forecasting discipline and proficiency with Salesforce
  • Entrepreneurial, hands-on, accountable, and comfortable building a new business in a rapidly evolving market.
  • Willingness to travel approximately 30-60% within the United States.

Preferred Qualifications

  • MBA or advanced technical degree.

Success Measures
