Stratus is a fabrication management SaaS platform built for MEP contractors. We help contractors plan, manage, and optimize the fabrication and installation of MEP systems so projects are delivered faster, with less waste, and higher predictability. Our customers include self-performing contractors who care deeply about constructability, prefabrication workflows, and field productivity.
As Stratus continues to expand its go-to-market motion, we are growing our Solutions Delivery & Strategy team and are hiring a Senior Sales Engineer to support our sales expansion, demonstrate product value, and serve as trusted technical advisors to our customers and Account Executives.
Role Summary
The Sales Engineer at Stratus partners closely with Account Executives to support the full sales cycle, acting as the technical and domain expert for prospects evaluating Stratus. This role is responsible for understanding customer workflows, translating technical requirements into product value, delivering compelling demonstrations, and supporting proof-of-concept and pilot engagements.
This is a customer-facing role that requires a strong understanding of MEP construction, fabrication, or related workflows, combined with the ability to communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
The Senior Sales Engineer builds on this foundation by taking ownership of the most complex and strategic sales opportunities. In addition to leading high-impact evaluations and engaging with executive-level stakeholders, the Senior Sales Engineer plays a player/coach role within the Solution Delivery & Strategy team—mentoring Sales Engineers, helping refine sales engineering processes, and contributing to the evolution of Stratus’s go-to-market approach through shared insight and experience.
