About the Role

Buildots is transforming how construction is delivered — combining AI, reality capture, and data-driven insights to make construction smarter, faster, and more efficient.

We’re looking for a Sales Engineer who can bridge the gap between cutting-edge technology and real-world construction challenges. In this role, you’ll serve as the technical authority in our sales efforts, helping top-tier construction companies understand how Buildots fits into their workflows — and where it can create real, measurable impact.

A deep understanding of the construction industry is essential for this role — particularly in complex, mission-critical projects like data centers, hospitals, and other high-precision environments. Your ability to speak the language of construction professionals and understand their technical and operational constraints will be a key factor in your success.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Lead the technical side of the sales process, from discovery to solutions design and technical validation.
• Translate complex product capabilities into clear, compelling value for each customer.
• Work closely with prospects to understand their specific technical needs, including system integrations, workflow requirements, and site conditions.
• Collaborate with Sales and Product teams to tailor our solution and messaging to enterprise and strategic accounts.
• Support proposal development, RFPs, and technical documentation when needed.
• Stay up to date on the construction technology landscape, with deep focus on mission-critical environments and high-complexity projects.

What You Bring

• A strong technical mindset – you’re comfortable diving into product architecture, APIs, workflows, and customer infrastructure.
• Deep understanding of the construction industry, especially how large, complex projects are managed and delivered.
• Familiarity with mission-critical projects (e.g. data centers, healthcare, pharma, infrastructure) — their constraints, terminology, and expectations.
• Excellent presentation and communication skills – you can engage both technical and non-technical audiences with confidence.
• High level of autonomy and initiative – you know how to push things forward independently and prioritize effectively.
• A team-first attitude – you work well with Sales, Product, and Customer teams to build and deliver winning solutions.
• Prior experience in a Sales Engineer / Solutions Consultant / Pre-Sales role at a B2B SaaS or construction-tech company is a strong plus.
• Must be located in Eastern or Central time zones.

Why You’ll Love It Here

This is a brand-new role at Buildots, which means you’ll have real ownership from day one. You’ll get to shape how the role works, bring your ideas to life, and have a direct impact on how we grow. We move fast, support each other, and care more about outcomes than job titles. If you’re looking for the freedom to build, the chance to be heard, and a team that’s genuinely excited about what they’re doing — you’ll feel right at home here.
