To protect the planet – that’s our mission at DESOTEC.
From air, soil and gas to water and other liquids: at DESOTEC, we purify through sustainable, mobile filter solutions based on activated carbon. Through a smart rental model, our filters are distributed to production companies all over the US. When the carbon inside of the filters is saturated, we make sure to retrieve it for reactivation. That is how we unburden our customers of the administrative, moral, logistical, and ecological consequences of their purification needs. The result: they can focus 100% on what really counts - sustainable production. Note: Candidates must reside in or near Los Angeles County, California, for consideration.
The Services Sales Engineer will be responsible for driving revenue growth within an assigned territory by selling Desotec’s carbon services including bulk/loose carbon sales, slurry, and vacuum and re-bed services. This role combines technical expertise with strong commercial acumen, focusing on identifying customer needs, communicating Desotec’s differentiating services and reactivation capabilities, and closing opportunities that deliver value for the customer and meet Desotec’s business objectives.
Typical territory revenue responsibility $1 to $3 MM (not confined to this range).
