Sr. Technical Sales Engineer, Europe

About the Opportunity

Skyven Technologies is revolutionizing the technology and economics of industrial steam. Our Arcturus high-temperature heat pump delivers steam at lower cost and emissions than traditional boilers. Customers can deploy the system via CAPEX or through an innovative Energy-as-a-Service (EaaS) model with zero upfront CAPEX and savings from day one. We are hiring a Senior Technical Sales Engineer, Europe as a key role in our growing our European operations. This is an opportunity to make a real impact at an innovative and growing industrial tech company.
