R-Zero is hiring a Senior Solutions Engineer to drive the technical pre-sales motion for our Physical AI solution — a portfolio of occupancy sensors and intelligence that unlocks meaningful HVAC energy reduction in commercial buildings. This is a customer-facing, sales-forward role that pairs strong communication skills with mechanical engineering judgment. You'll be the technical voice in early-stage customer conversations, leading pitches alongside Sales Directors, qualifying buildings against R-Zero's occupancy-based demand-controlled ventilation criteria, and translating HVAC, BMS, and controls complexity into clear, compelling value for executive and engineering audiences alike.

This is a startup role, and we mean it. R-Zero is a fast-moving company building a category that doesn't have a textbook playbook yet — which means the right person here gets to help write it. You won't just execute against an established pre-sales motion; you'll own the evolution of the tools, qualification frameworks, and processes the Solutions team runs on. 

You'll operate as a senior pre-sales engineer on the Solutions team, partnering closely with the rest of the team to scale qualification velocity and feed a growing sales pipeline. You'll get hands-on with our internal tools, scope buildings from drawings and BMS data, and develop ROI narratives that move deals forward.

The salary range for this position will vary based on candidate level, experience, and location. The base salary for this position contemplates a range of $165,000 - $185,000. Certain roles may be eligible for incentive compensation, equity, and benefits. Proof of eligibility to work in the United States and a background check is required upon employment.
