• Provide product demonstrations, workshops, and trainings for customers, specifying engineers, and contractors to showcase functionality and value of controls and automation solutions.
• Work closely with design engineers, systems integrators, and project managers to ensure accurate specification, seamless integration, and successful implementation of controls systems.
• Respond to RFPs/RFQs and prepare bid packages, technical submittals, scopes of work, and value engineering recommendations.
• Manage the full sales cycle from lead generation through contract close, coordinating internal resources (engineering, support, procurement) to meet customer needs and timelines.
• Maintain and grow strategic relationships with consulting engineers, general contractors, equipment suppliers, and facility managers to drive specification and repeat business.
• Track sales activities and pipeline in the CRM, produce accurate forecasts, and meet or exceed assigned sales targets and KPIs.
• Support commissioning and start-up activities as needed, provide post-sales technical support, and coordinate warranty/field service issues to ensure high customer satisfaction.
• Stay current on industry trends, BAS/BMS platforms, control sequences, communication protocols (e.g., BACnet, Modbus), and competitive product offerings; communicate insights to internal teams to shape product and marketing strategy.

Qualifications

• Bachelors degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Building Systems, or related field, or equivalent technical sales experience.
• 5+ years of direct experience selling HVAC controls, BAS/BMS, or building automation solutions; experience as a Sales Engineer or Account Manager preferred.
• Strong technical knowledge of HVAC control strategies, control system architecture, integration methods, and common communication protocols such as BACnet and Modbus.
• Proven track record of meeting or exceeding sales targets and managing complex technical sales cycles with multiple stakeholders.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills; capable of preparing proposals, delivering technical presentations, and conducting product demonstrations to diverse audiences.
• Hands-on familiarity with system design documents, controls sequences, P&IDs, and the ability to translate functional requirements into specifications.
• Proficiency with CRM tools (e.g., Salesforce, HubSpot), Microsoft Office suite, and experience producing accurate sales forecasts and reports.
• Willingness to travel regionally for customer meetings, site visits, trade shows, and commissioning activities; valid drivers license.
• Strong organizational skills, self-motivated, and able to work both independently and collaboratively within cross-functional teams.
• Certifications or training in HVAC controls, building automation, or related vendor platforms (preferred) e.g., Tridium Niagara, Johnson Controls, Schneider Electric, or similar.
