About Aurora Solar

Are you ready to join the solar revolution? Look no further than Aurora Solar, where we're on a mission to create a solar energy future for all.  

A fast-growing Series D company, Aurora is disrupting the clean energy industry and changing the course of history with our award-winning, industry-leading software. This software doesn’t just design millions of solar projects, but designs a better tomorrow, empowering solar companies to sell, design, and install residential and commercial solar arrays accurately, seamlessly, and at scale.

We were named one of “The Best Mid Sized Remote Companies To Work for in 2023” by BuiltIn.com and have been awarded #1 Solar Software platform by Solar Power World, and as we continue to build, we need even more passionate, skilled, and, well, energized people on board.

About The Role

In this role, you will have a chance to join Aurora’s Strategic Sales division, as we transform the operating system for the world’s largest solar companies. In addition to owning the entire sales cycle, you will be a mission-critical voice of the Strategic customer, define our GTM motion, and define our processes and product roadmap within our largest accounts. This role is a mix of net new business hunting and farming our Strategic install base.

What You'll Do

  • Own entire sales motion from inception to negotiation and close, both within net new and existing accounts

  • Manage the upsell and expansion of our largest existing customers, as well as pioneering new opportunities within solar adjacent markets

  • Run the cross-functional pod to drive the pipeline, including BDR, CS, Marketing, and executive management team

  • Advise the product roadmap

  • Continue to define the Strategic GTM motion and make it as repeatable and scalable as possible

  • Attend tradeshows and in-person meetings with target accounts

What We Value

  • 10+ years in SaaS closing roles, experience selling to companies with over 10,000 employees

  • Successful experience with complex, lengthy sales cycles, multi-million dollar TCVs and large multinational organizations

  • Ability to maintain integrity and grit in a fast-paced startup environment

  • Approaching sales processes with intelligence, curiosity, and a mission-motivated focus

  • Willingness to adapt and apply actionable feedback
