Purpose of the Role

Keel Infrastructure is seeking a Sales Engineer to support the sale of datacenter capacity. This role sits at the intersection of sales and technical delivery, translating Keel's design standard and site capabilities into terms a customer's technical teams can evaluate and trust, while translating customer requirements back into what Keel can commit to without slowing down site delivery.

The Sales Engineer works directly with prospective and existing customers through the sales cycle: joining prospecting calls to qualify technical requirements, presenting Keel's MEP and facility design approach, responding to RFPs, and building the technical designs and documentation that support a signed deal. This is a customer-facing technical role, not a design-authority role. The Sales Engineer represents Keel's standard to the market; the Design & Engineering team owns and evolves that standard internally.

The ideal candidate has deep fluency across power, cooling, and electrical systems in mission-critical facilities, along with a working understanding of compute and networking technology and how it drives those requirements. As rack densities and chip architectures evolve, this person needs to know what that means for power delivery, cooling approach, and electrical design, not just describe the systems as they exist today. That fluency is what lets them hold a credible, detailed technical conversation with a customer's infrastructure team, while keeping sight of the commercial goal: closing capacity deals on a timeline that protects speed to market.

Key Responsibilities

Customer-Facing Technical Sales

  • Serve as the primary technical resource in the sales cycle, presenting Keel's MEP systems, cooling architecture, electrical topology, and facility design approach to prospective customers.
  • Join customer prospecting calls alongside Sales to assess technical fit early, ask the right diagnostic questions, and set realistic expectations before a deal moves forward.
  • Join design calls with customer technical teams to walk through system specifications, resolve open technical questions, and work toward a design that satisfies both the customer's requirements and Keel's standard.
  • Build confidence with customer technical resources (facilities, infrastructure, and engineering teams) by speaking credibly to system design, redundancy, and capacity delivery.
  • Answer detailed technical questions on power density, cooling systems, and electrical distribution in real time during customer meetings and evaluations.

Requirements Translation

  • Translate customer requirements (power density, redundancy, timeline, and site preferences) into what Keel's standard design and site pipeline can deliver.
  • Translate Keel's standard design and vendor (A&E/MEP) deliverables into customer-facing materials that are accurate without exposing internal design detail that should stay with delivery teams.
