Collaborating closely with the global technical, sales, and project execution teams to ensure delivery excellence.

  • Leading negotiations and customer meetings from initial contact through to contract close.
  • Representing the company at industry events, conferences, and stakeholder engagements across North America.
  • Supporting project documentation, reporting, and pipeline management for both North America and global headquarters.
  • Ideal Profile

  • 10+ years’ experience in business development or commercial leadership within the IPP, utility, or energy‑infrastructure sector .
  • Strong understanding of large‑scale power projects , energy storage, or thermal / gas‑based technologies (e.g., LNG, hydrogen, biogas, steam turbines, or other compression‑based systems).
  • Deep network and market knowledge across the North American energy landscape .
  • Proven ability to structure and negotiate complex commercial contracts.
  • Excellent communication, negotiation, and relationship‑management skills.
  • Entrepreneurial mindset, hands‑on approach, and genuine interest in innovative clean‑energy technologies .
  • Degree in Engineering, Business, or a related technical field; MBA advantageous.
  • Culture & Growth

    This is an opportunity to join a fast‑growing, mission‑driven company that values creativity, collaboration, and curiosity. The team combines deep technical expertise with a start‑up spirit — where initiative, flexibility, and innovation are celebrated.

    The successful candidate will play a defining role in the company’s North American growth story while gaining exposure to cutting‑edge technology shaping the global energy transition.
