• Build and manage a robust pipeline of utility-scale and distributed storage opportunities across the U.S. 

• Cultivate and expand relationships with developers, utilities, IPPs, EPCs, and corporate energy buyers. 

• Translate customer requirements into compelling proposals in collaboration with our Product and Engineering teams. 

• Deliver customer feedback to internal teams to inform product roadmaps and go-to-market strategy. 

• Represent Peak at industry conferences, customer meetings, and events. 

• Support key sales agreements, such as project RFPs, COAs, and ESSAs. 

Minimum Qualifications: 

• 5+ years of experience in driving strategic sales, business development, or account management — ideally in energy storage, grid infrastructure, or renewable project development. 

• Demonstrated success in closing large, complex deals with utilities, developers, or energy buyers. 

• Strong technical fluency — able to grasp and articulate energy storage value propositions and system trade-offs. 

• Proven ability to operate in fast-paced, early-stage environments with minimal structure. 

• Excellent communication, negotiation, and stakeholder management skills. 

• Passion for renewable energy, sustainability, and driving positive environmental impact through technology innovation. 

• Eligible to work in the U.S. 

Preferred Qualifications: 

• Experience selling energy storage systems (ESS), grid-connected assets, or utility-scale hardware solutions. 

• Familiarity with RFP processes, interconnection timelines, and project development cycles. 

• Existing relationships within utilities, IPPs, or clean energy developers. 

• Understanding of total cost of ownership (TCO) modeling and IRA incentives.
