Jr. Technical Sales Engineer
Position Type: Full Time
Location: Calgary, AB (remote-hybrid)
Employer Description
Eneon is a leading Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) company and one of the fastest growing in the renewable energy and energy management industries. We are a tight-knit team of seasoned professionals who engineer, integrate, and operate premium BESS solutions across North America.
Eneon is an opportunity to hit the ground running with a growing organization, to be a part of its growth, and to help drive the global energy transformation at large. Eneon is also an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees. We believe diverse teams and diverse perspectives lead to better outcomes and breakthrough thinking, which are differentiators in any business and fundamental to our long-term success.
Position Description
The Jr. Technical Sales Engineer will support Eneon’s sales function and learn directly from senior technical sales staff by translating client and project requirements into BESS solutions, preparing budgetary and detailed proposals and presentations, and supporting client relationships and technical discussions. This role offers exposure to the full contract cycle, from early opportunity identification through project transition, as well as the business development side of the sales function, such as attending industry conferences and participating in the prospecting of future markets.
Key responsibilities include:
Client & Contract Management
- Support the client's continuous point of contact from initial contact through contract execution, helping ensure consistency of relationship and accountability across the full lifecycle.
- Assist with contract negotiation, drafting, and review in coordination with legal, commercial, and technical stakeholders.
- Help track amendments and scope modifications through the sales cycle as client or project needs evolve.
Technical Support
- Support the up-front system design by translating client project concepts into system design requirements.
- Build a working technical understanding of the engineering and design team's output - including general layouts, equipment orientation, schematics/drawings, and code compliance - to assist with design discussions and help relay considerations between clients and the design team.
- Act as a technical point-of-contact for clients and for related integrated BESS equipment throughout the sales cycle.
- Assist in the preparation of budgetary and detailed technical proposals for clients.
- Support a smooth handoff of client specifications from the sales cycle to engineering and project execution teams.
Business Development
- Travel periodically to client offices, project sites, and industry events as a company representative.
- Assist in managing existing and prospective client accounts and tracking activity through Eneon's Customer Relationship Management (CRM) software.
- Help monitor public battery energy storage RFP postings and support assessment of their strategic fit, technical viability, and business value for Eneon.
Required Qualifications
- 1 – 2+ years of directly related experience to the above Responsibilities; internship or co-op experience considered.
- A Bachelor's degree in Engineering with a focus on electrical, mechanical, power, or industrial automation systems.
- Developing ability to communicate technical and commercial information clearly to varied audiences - including clients, executives, and internal teams - through proposals, presentations, and technical documentation.
- Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with coursework, internship, or early career exposure to B2B sales cycles, contract discussions, or account management in an industrial, energy, or technical solutions environment.
- Willingness to learn CRM platforms to manage client accounts, track opportunities, and maintain visibility across the full contract cycle, from proposal through project close.
- Foundational knowledge of BESS-relevant codes and standards (e.g., NEC, CEC, UL9540, NFPA 855), with developing ability to read and interpret electrical/mechanical designs, schematics, P&IDs, and technical specifications.
- Exposure to RFI, RFP, and RFQ documentation for industrial or infrastructure projects is an asset.
- Prior experience or academic focus in the renewables industry is an asset.
- Pursuing or recently obtained EIT designation is an asset.
A note on the use of AI in our hiring process: We use AI-enabled tools to help sort and assess applications against core job-related criteria (such as skills, experience, and qualifications). AI does not make hiring decisions. The members of our hiring team review results carefully and make all final decisions. Your application materials are used only for the purpose of evaluating your candidacy for this role.
Finally, a note on qualifications: Even if you don't have every listed requirement, but you feel strongly about this role and believe you'd bring value, we encourage you to apply. We'd rather hear from someone who's genuinely excited about the work than miss out because they didn't tick every box!
