Sales Engineer

United States

Cloudpermit is expanding beyond community development software into asset management, and we are hiring our founding Sales Engineer to help lead that growth. Reporting to the Chief Sales Officer, you will be the technical and domain expert who partners with Account Executives to win business with new and existing customers. You will lead product demonstrations, direct RFPs, and serve as a subject matter expert.

As a founding member of this new business line, you will work closely with our Product and Marketing teams to guide the product roadmap, establish product-market fit, and shape the key messaging that positions Cloudpermit in the asset management space. This is a rare opportunity to combine deep domain expertise with cross-functional influence and build something from the ground up.
