JOB SUMMARY We are seeking a driven and results-oriented Sales Leader to champion our growth in data center power solutions, with a focus on on-site Distributed Energy Resources (DER). This role centers on driving the adoption of innovative on-site power and energy solutions (e.g. battery energy storage systems, combined heat and power units, standby generators, linear generators, fuel cells, turbines) within the data center sector. You will build relationships with key decision-makers and guide them to understand the reliability, sustainability, and cost advantages of these solutions. The position involves identifying new business opportunities, tailoring integrated power solutions to client needs, and developing strategic approaches to meet the growing demand and resiliency challenges of mission-critical data centers. Responsibilities Develop and execute the go-to-market strategy for on-site power solutions in the data center segment across North America. Leverage your industry network to access data center on-site power projects, and strategically position our offerings in the market. Identify and cultivate relationships with key stakeholders, including data center operators (hyperscalers, colocation providers), engineering/procurement/construction (EPC) firms, and infrastructure developers, to generate new business. Engage with executives and project owners to establish our company as a trusted partner for reliable and sustainable power solutions. Drive complex sales cycles from initial prospecting through negotiation and closing. Manage the involvement of multiple stakeholders (client facility teams, finance partners, internal engineers) and oversee technical, logistical, and financial aspects of proposals and contracts. Ensure that sales processes are adapted to each client’s technical requirements and market conditions. Collaborate with internal engineering, product, and finance teams to design tailored on-site power solutions for each client. Lead the preparation of detailed technical and commercial proposals, including ROI analyses, pricing, scope, and implementation plans, aligning solutions with client energy needs and ROI expectations. Deliver compelling presentations and consultative sales conversations that highlight the reliability, resiliency, and sustainability benefits of our DER offerings. Clearly articulate how our solutions can provide reliable cost-effective power for data centers. Build a robust pipeline of qualified opportunities. Maintain accurate sales forecasts and regularly report on sales performance, adjusting strategies based on market response. Prioritize opportunities aligned with our portfolio (such as projects requiring dispatchable backup power or grid services support) to meet or exceed targets. Stay informed on industry trends, regulatory developments (e.g. emissions regulations, energy incentives), and emerging technologies in the data center power space. Represent the company at data center industry events, trade shows, and conferences to network, promote our solutions, and keep the company’s profile strong in this sector. Qualifications Extensive B2B sales experience (preferably 10+ years) in energy or infrastructure solutions, with a focus on data centers or other critical facilities. Proven track record of meeting or exceeding sales targets in complex, solution-oriented sales environments. At least several years of direct experience selling on-site power generation or storage solutions into data center projects on a national scale is highly desirable. Strong knowledge of distributed energy and on-site power technologies – especially battery energy storage, fuel cell systems, microgrids, and prime power generation (e.g. natural gas or diesel generators, CHP units, turbines) – and their application in large-scale facilities. Ability to understand data center electrical infrastructure and to articulate technical concepts and reliability benefits to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. Established network or the ability to quickly build relationships within the data center ecosystem, including contacts among hyperscale cloud companies, colocation providers, data center developers, and engineering firms. Experience working with or selling to stakeholders such as data center facility managers, energy managers, and CTO/CFO-level decision-makers is a plus. Exceptional communication and negotiation skills, with expertise in consultative, value-based selling. Strategic mindset to develop go-to-market plans and adapt to market conditions, combined with a “hunter” mentality to drive new business independently. Experience managing long sales cycles and structuring complex deals (potentially involving capital equipment sales, power purchase agreements, or energy-as-a-service models) is preferred. Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Business, Energy Management or a related field; an MBA or relevant technical master’s is a plus. Professional training or certification in energy systems, electrical engineering, or project finance will be advantageous. Willingness to travel (~50% or more) to client sites and industry events as needed. High proficiency with CRM software (e.g. Salesforce) and MS Office for tracking opportunities and developing proposals. A strong understanding of power market dynamics, energy regulations, and sustainability trends in the data center industry is a plus.
