    • Strengthen relationships with channel partners through consistent and strategic engagement
    • Proactively develop expertise in market programs, tariff structures, and customer incentives across key markets; drive cross-functional collaboration to evaluate, interpret, and apply these insights to customer solutions
    • Bring thoughtful, innovative ideas to strategic discussions to drive business growth
    • Perform initial analysis of microgrid opportunities using Scale’s Atlas tools to determine baseline feasibility, and collaborate with the Development Engineering team to refine scope and project opportunities further
    • Work collaboratively across disciplines within Scale to improve processes and drive overall business efficiency
    • Travel is expected to be about 25%

The Ideal Candidate

    • Previous experience working for, selling to, and/or performing related business development activities for Fortune 500 clients
    • Demonstrated ability to thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced, and sometimes ambiguous environment
    • Self-motivated, requiring minimal oversight to excel

    • Familiar with CRMs (Salesforce, HubSpot, or similar)
    • Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and organizational skills
