Role Summary:

The Sales Electrical Engineer is a hybrid commercial and technical role within the Market Management Center at Gotion Illinois New Energy. This position bridges the gap between engineering and business development — supporting customer acquisition and account management on the commercial side while providing the technical depth needed to configure, specify, and validate energy storage and power systems solutions. The ideal candidate is equally comfortable presenting a value proposition to a prospective customer as they are reviewing single-line diagrams, interpreting interconnection requirements, or working through system performance data with an engineering team. 

Key Responsibilities:

Sales & Customer Development 

• Identify, qualify, and pursue new customer opportunities across target segments including C&I, data centers, municipalities, and utilities. 

• Lead customer-facing engagements from initial outreach through proposal, negotiation, and contract execution. 

• Develop and present tailored proposals that clearly communicate technical capabilities, financial value, and project structure. 

• Build and maintain a pipeline of active prospects; track activity and report progress against sales targets to the Director. 

• Support the development of marketing materials, capability decks, and case studies that position Gotion's BESS and energy solutions competitively. 

• Represent Gotion at industry events, trade shows, and customer meetings as a credible technical and commercial voice. 

Technical Engineering Support 

• Provide technical guidance on BESS system design, including sizing, configuration, power conversion, and grid interconnection requirements.
