About AethelonAI

AethelonAI is building the intelligence layer for physical infrastructure - from premium residential homes and large housing societies to commercial buildings and industrial facilities. Our hardware-native platform, XYNIRIX™, uses edge-deployed AI to eliminate energy waste, predict failures, and deliver measurable savings in real time.

Our flagship Experience Centre in Gurugram is where customers, architects, interior designers, and builders come to see the future of intelligent living - live, in a fully operational smart home environment.

Position Overview

We are looking for a driven, customer-facing Sales Intern to join our Experience Centre team in Gurugram. This is not a back-office internship. You will be on the floor - engaging with visitors, supporting live product demonstrations, qualifying leads, and learning how to close consultative sales conversations in a premium technology environment.

You will work directly alongside our Senior Sales Consultant and Head of Sales, getting hands-on exposure to the full sales cycle - from walk-in engagement to proposal support to follow-up. If you are confident, articulate, and genuinely curious about technology and people, this role will give you a real foundation in sales.

Outstanding interns will be considered for full-time roles based on performance, contribution, and team fit.

Key Responsibilities

• Welcome and greet walk-in visitors including homeowners, architects, interior designers, and builders.
• Assist in delivering live product demonstrations of smart home and energy automation solutions.
• Ensure the Experience Centre is maintained to the highest presentation standards at all times.
• Create a welcoming, professional atmosphere that reflects the AethelonAI brand.
• Qualify inbound leads and visitor enquiries based on interest, budget, and project type.
• Support outbound outreach via phone, WhatsApp, and email for follow-ups and appointment scheduling.
• Assist in identifying and reaching potential customers through social media, referrals, and community channels.
• Maintain an accurate and up-to-date lead log for daily handover to the senior sales team.

Customer Relationship Support

• Follow up with prospects post-visit to maintain engagement and answer basic product queries.
• Coordinate scheduling for in-depth consultations with the Senior Sales Consultant or Head of Sales.
• Assist in preparing customer proposals, quotation summaries, and product brochures.
• Collect customer feedback and relay insights to the sales team for continuous improvement.

CRM & Reporting

• Update CRM records with accurate lead data, interaction notes, and follow-up timelines.
• Assist in preparing daily and weekly sales activity reports for the team.
• Track visitor footfall, enquiry types, and conversion indicators at the Experience Centre.
• Undergo structured product training on AethelonAI's smart home and energy automation solutions.
• Learn to explain core product features, benefits, and differentiators in simple, customer-friendly language.
• Stay current on smart home market trends, competitor products, and customer buying patterns.
• Shadow senior sales conversations and demonstrations to build consultation skills.

Required Skills

• Excellent verbal communication in English and Hindi - confident, clear, and professional.
• Strong interpersonal skills with a natural ability to build rapport with strangers.
• Genuine curiosity about technology - particularly smart home, IoT, and energy solutions.
• Self-motivated, proactive, and comfortable working in a target-oriented environment.
• Professional appearance and polished presentation manner.
• Basic proficiency with digital tools - WhatsApp Business, Google Sheets, email.

Qualifications

• Pursuing or recently completed a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration, Marketing, Commerce, Engineering, or a related field.
• 2025 or 2026 pass-out from a recognised institution.
• Prior internship experience in sales, retail, or customer service is a strong advantage but not mandatory.
• Familiarity with smart home products, home automation, or consumer technology is a plus.

What We Look For Beyond the CV

• Hustle - you do not wait to be told what to do. You see a gap and you fill it.
• Curiosity - you ask good questions and genuinely want to understand what customers need.
• Coachability - you take feedback well and apply it quickly.
• Presence - you can hold a room, adapt your tone to your audience, and make people feel heard.

What You Will Gain

• Real-world consultative sales experience in a premium technology environment.
• Direct mentorship from senior sales professionals with experience in home automation and smart home markets.
• Full product training on AethelonAI's smart home and energy intelligence solutions.
• Exposure to HNI clients, architects, interior designers, and residential developers.
• Internship stipend commensurate with skills and contribution.
• Performance-linked incentives for closures and qualified lead conversions.
• Strong performance path to a full-time Sales Consultant role at AethelonAI.
