About Zero Homes
Our mission is to electrify the world’s homes for healthy and sustainable living. Residential electrification is an extraordinary decarbonization opportunity - 145 million homes in the United States account for 20% of our climate emissions. But today, electrification is painful - it’s too complicated, time consuming, and expensive. So we’re building a new experience for homeowners, contractors, and utilities. Zero bridges the gap between the digital and the physical with a frictionless experience that makes electrification fast, easy, and affordable. Join our team to build a world class consumer experience that just so happens to electrify America.

We are hiring an HVAC sales lead to be the trusted expert to homeowners throughout their journey of upgrading and electrifying their homes. You’ll be the central customer touchpoint during the digital (remote) consultative sales process, using our software to create customized system designs and quotes, and guide homeowners through all-electric upgrades that match their needs. Your subject matter expertise will improve the comfort, efficiency, and carbon footprint of homes, all while ensuring the homeowner's experience is exceptional.

- Comfort with technology and digital tools, including CRM systems, remote design software, and virtual communication platforms

- Excellent organization and time management, with strong follow-through and CRM discipline
- Confident presenter and storyteller, comfortable in 1:1 consultations or group settings
