Technical Sales Engineer - Generalist
Clean Energy Associates
If you're starting your career and want to see how technical work actually drives business forward, this role bridges engineering and sales. You'll own real proposals, talk to actual clients, and learn the commercial side of how projects get built.
Your day involves managing RFQs and RFPs, coordinating with internal teams to meet deadlines, and translating what clients need into clear proposal responses. You'll prepare labor estimates using pricing tools, work with subject matter experts on scopes of work, and build structured responses that win business. It's hands-on, deadline-driven work that teaches you both technical thinking and how deals move.
You're a fit if you have foundational analytical skills, comfort reading technical specs, and the ability to organize moving parts across teams. Background in engineering, supply chain, operations, or adjacent fields helps. You need to be detail-oriented and able to meet hard deadlines without much hand-holding.
This is a remote role based in the Philippines. To apply, submit your resume and a brief note on CareerJumpShip explaining why proposal work interests you and what technical background you bring.
