This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for an Account Executive based in United States.

This is a high-impact sales role focused on accelerating the development of renewable energy projects across the U.S. power grid.
You will own new business growth by identifying, engaging, and converting renewable energy developers and independent power producers.
The role combines consultative selling, technical discovery, strategic prospecting, and full-cycle enterprise sales.
You will become deeply knowledgeable about grid interconnection and help customers understand how better connection decisions can reduce risk and project costs.
Working closely with product, engineering, data, and customer success teams, you will bring valuable market insights back into the organization.
The position is ideal for a self-driven salesperson who enjoys complex technical markets and thrives in an entrepreneurial environment.
Your work will directly contribute to making renewable energy projects more economically viable and advancing the transition to a cleaner power grid.

As an Account Executive, you will own the new-business sales motion, developing a strong pipeline of renewable energy customers and guiding prospects through the complete journey from initial outreach to long-term adoption.

• Drive new business among renewable energy developers and independent power producers toward an annual $2 million sales quota.
• Own the full sales cycle, including prospecting, qualification, discovery, product demonstrations, negotiation, and closing.
• Research and identify high-potential renewable energy developers using strategic and data-driven approaches.
• Build relationships with Transmission, Interconnection, and Development teams to understand customer challenges and priorities.

• Build trusted relationships with prospects and customers throughout the sales cycle and beyond.
