About Us

We are a high-growth, Google Ventures backed start focused on reshaping the energy sector through optimized power distribution utilizing EV batteries as distributed storage. Our cutting-edge chargers (Distributed Energy Access Points) can charge EVs at 500kW – faster than any other charger in America – but are also small enough to be installed in space constrained urban settings. We have deployed our proprietary technology already in Midtown Manhattan, and over the next few years aim to develop the top network nationwide (with contracts to develop 16 more sites already signed). We are growing our highly skilled, highly motivated team to execute on the huge market demand for our products and enable hyper-scaling.

  • Utilization monitoring and optimization
  • Working directly with the CEO to refine our business development strategy
  • Managing organic inbound leads and developing strategies to increase inbound lead generation
  • Building and executing a sales/marketing outreach strategy
  • Managing sales pipeline from first contact to signed contract
  • Building relationships with major customers to enable rapid scaling of charging site footprint throughout customer portfolios
  • Industry and competitive analysis to ensure we are optimally positioning ourselves within the market
Qualifications
  • 3-8 years of experience in sales, biz dev, consulting or similar
  • Experience building and managing a sales engine at an early-stage start-up (ideal)
  • Initiative, positivity, and a results-based mindset
  • Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to troubleshoot complex issues with a diverse set of groups.
  • Excellent teamwork and communication skills, with the ability to work in a fast-paced and dynamic startup environment.
  • Experience using CRM tools
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Excel, PowerPoint, and/or other data visualization tools
  • Team Lunches: We believe in fostering a strong sense of camaraderie among our team members. Enjoy regular team lunches where we gather to relax, share ideas, and strengthen our bond.
  • Healthcare and Dental Insurance: Your health and well-being are important to us. We provide comprehensive healthcare and dental insurance plans to ensure you and your family are covered.
