Inside Sales Representative

About Resource Monitor

Resource Monitor is a venture-backed technology company modernizing rural water infrastructure through IoT-connected flow meters and intuitive software. Our platform gives water systems real-time visibility into their operations — leak detection, anomaly alerts, non-revenue water tracking — replacing manual reads and reactive management with proactive, data-driven decisions.

We work primarily with rural water associations, municipal utilities, and water improvement associations across the country. Our customers are small- to mid-sized water systems: 200 to several thousand connections, often understaffed and operating infrastructure that's decades old. They're not buying software — they're buying relief.
Our Generational Opportunity

Groundwater infrastructure in the US is aging, understaffed, and largely unmonitored. Rural water systems lose an average of 20–30% of their water to undetected leaks. Regulators are tightening non-revenue water requirements. Federal grant programs (USDA, EPA) are pushing systems to modernize. We're at the intersection of all three tailwinds.

We're looking for a driven Inside Sales Representative to own our outbound pipeline in the West and South United States. This is a phone-first role: you'll spend most of your day calling water system operators, utility managers, and public works directors — qualifying them, uncovering pain, and booking discovery meetings for our field sales team. You'll also join those discovery calls, support field trip planning, and help us build channel relationships through rural water associations and conservation organizations.

This role sits at the center of our revenue motion. You'll report directly to our Director of Sales and work closely with Resource Monitor ’s founders and CEO. You'll have full visibility into the pipeline, a seat in every sales strategy conversation, and a direct line to influence how we grow.

Startup DNA Required: This is not your typical sales role. As an early employee at Resource Monitor , you'll join a fast-moving startup at a pivotal moment. We're looking for someone who thrives in ambiguity, moves with urgency, and is energized by building something from scratch. You'll wear multiple hats, work directly with founders, and significantly influence the company trajectory. The role requires an entrepreneurial mindset - someone willing to trade the certainty of an established company for the potential of outsized equity returns and the chance to shape an industry.

This isn't your role if you're looking for structured processes, established playbooks, or a traditional corporate hierarchy. But if you're excited by the challenge of turning market opportunity into market dominance, can operate with limited resources, and want to bet on yourself while helping solve one of the world's most critical resource challenges, we should talk.
