• Meet and exceed quota (estimated 2026 quota: $3.5–$4M).
• Prospect, engage, and close new partnerships and accounts across the region.
• Convert HQ-generated inside-sales leads into qualified opportunities and closed business.
• Expand revenue within existing customers and partners through ongoing relationship-building and solution alignment.
• Coordinate and deliver remote and in-person presentations, trainings, and events.
• Maintain active pipeline management and forecasting using Salesforce with high transparency.
• Collaborate closely with Marketing and Product teams to drive campaigns and communicate market needs.
• Work with the VP of Sales to build and execute annual territory and account plans.
• Operate as a self-starter capable of quickly learning HydroPoint technology, processes, and value positioning.

Required Skills & Experience:

• Bachelor’s degree preferred.
• 7 years of outside sales or account management experience, with 5 years in the Green Industry.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Effective problem-solving capabilities with a consultative, solution-oriented mindset.
• Hands-on experience with Irrigation Central Control systems (sales or technical support).
• Excellent presentation skills (one-on-one, small groups, and large audiences).
• PowerPoint, Excel, and Salesforce experience preferred (not required).
• Ability and willingness to spend ~75% of time in the field across Southern California; some out-of-market travel (~2 days/month).

Why HydroPoint

HydroPoint offers:

• A creative, mission-driven, and fast-moving environment.
• Competitive compensation with base commission and stock option eligibility.
• In addition to a competitive base salary, you’ll earn generous commission
• Comprehensive benefits (medical insurance, 11 paid holidays in 2026, PTO starting at two weeks and growing to three weeks after four years).
