Sales Development Representative

VVater is America’s Next Water Company, delivering the future of purification through its award-winning Farady Reactor (CES Best of Innovation 2025, World Future Award 2025), proprietary ALTEP (Advanced Low Tension Electroporation Process), Advanced Dissolved Air Flotation, and Micro & Nano Bubble technologies. Unlike outdated chemical, filter, and membrane systems, VVater’s electric-field breakthroughs eliminate PFAS, microplastics, microorganisms, and other contaminants with record retention times, without toxic byproducts or costly consumables. With over 4.3B gallons treated and validation from global leaders, VVater is scaling into municipal drinking water and wastewater, DPR/IPR, onsite reuse for data centers, commercial buildings, and resorts, residential purification, and consumer health water, delivering a 60% smaller footprint, 40% CapEx savings, 80% OpEx savings, and 40% less energy use.

VVater is hiring a top-flight Sales Development Representative to own full-cycle revenue for our broader portfolio of engineered water solutions, not just destination water features.

You will prospect, qualify, scope, propose, negotiate, and close opportunities across municipal, industrial, and private development customers, then ensure a clean hand-off to delivery.

Offerings include advanced electrically driven water treatment (e.g., Farady Reactors), drinking water and wastewater/reuse systems (including onsite commercial reuse and DPR support), residential whole-home treatment, aquatics (surf parks, lagoons, artificial beaches), and supporting digital/automation capabilities.

You’ll partner tightly with technical teams, use a disciplined sales methodology, and manage a precise forecast and CRM to deliver predictable growth.

At VVater, starting salaries are expressed as base salaries for sales roles.

Additional compensation from sales commissions and short-term incentives are also part of the compensation package for the Sales Representative.
