Job description

Home Automation Sales Engineer

Location: Muscat, Oman | Employment Type: Full-Time

About Us

We are a leading systems integrator specializing in premium KNX-based home automation, CCTV & surveillance, access control, and enterprise WiFi & network infrastructure solutions. We partner with developers, architects, contractors, and high-end residential and commercial clients to design and deliver smart building ecosystems that combine reliability, security, and cutting-edge technology.

We're growing our team and looking for a Home Automation Sales Engineer who can bridge the gap between technical design and client-facing sales - someone equally comfortable discussing KNX topology with a consultant and closing a deal with a villa owner or developer.

The Role

As a Home Automation Sales Engineer, you will be the technical and commercial face of our smart systems division - engaging clients, consultants, and contractors to specify, propose, and sell integrated automation, security, and networking solutions. You'll translate client needs into technically sound, competitively priced proposals, and work closely with our design and installation teams to ensure what's sold gets delivered.

Key Responsibilities

• Identify and develop new business opportunities with developers, architects, MEP consultants, contractors, and end clients across residential and commercial projects.
• Conduct client site visits and consultations to understand project requirements and translate them into technical solutions.
• Prepare technical proposals, BOQs, system schematics, and cost estimates for KNX home automation, CCTV, access control, and network infrastructure projects.
• Deliver product demonstrations and presentations to clients, consultants, and contractors.
• Collaborate with design/engineering teams to ensure proposed solutions are technically feasible and aligned with project budgets and timelines.
• Build and maintain relationships with architects, interior designers, and consultants to get specified into projects at design stage.
• Negotiate commercial terms and close sales, meeting or exceeding assigned revenue targets.
• Stay current with KNX, security, and networking product developments and competitor offerings.
• Coordinate with project/installation teams to ensure smooth handover after sale.
• Attend industry exhibitions, trade shows, and networking events to represent the company.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical, Electronics, Telecommunications, or a related Engineering field.
• 2-5 years of experience in technical sales, ideally within home automation, security systems (CCTV/access control), AV, or networking/ICT industries.
• Working knowledge of KNX systems (certification is a strong plus, not mandatory).
• Understanding of CCTV, access control, structured cabling, and WiFi/network infrastructure fundamentals.
• Strong communication and presentation skills, with the ability to explain technical concepts to non-technical clients.
• Proven ability to read architectural/MEP drawings and prepare technical proposals and BOQs.
• Self-motivated, target-driven, and comfortable owning the full sales cycle.
• Valid driving license; willingness to travel to client sites and project locations.
• Fluent in English; Arabic is an advantage.

Preferred Qualifications

• KNX Partner/Association certification.
• Existing network of contacts among consultants, contractors, or developers in Oman.
• Familiarity with brands such as Zennio (KNX), HIKVISION, or similar CCTV/access control platforms.

What We Offer

• Competitive base salary plus performance-based commission.
• Opportunity to work on landmark residential and commercial projects.
• Ongoing technical training and manufacturer certifications.
• A collaborative team environment with real growth potential as the division expands.
