About The Position

We are a design-driven manufacturer of landscape architectural site furnishings and engineered modular planting systems for commercial developments, rooftop terraces, amenity decks, and mixed-use environments. We offer custom design development and manufacturing of landscape architectural products including pergolas, outdoor kitchens, modular planting systems and public art. Our work goes beyond standard planters and site elements. We engineer fully integrated systems that combine: Custom planters Fire and water features Integrated seating Lighting and audio integration Guardrails Structural attachment systems Wind uplift performance Saturated soil containment and drainage performance Our systems are often written into project specifications and require coordination across structural, architectural, waterproofing, and landscape disciplines. We are building an elite extension of our Sales team by adding highly capable Architectural Sales Engineers to lead our most significant landmark projects and manage our very important architectural networks. This role is designed for a technical professional who understands the architectural sales evolution and can drive specification-based sales proposals from the design phase through the final award. We have a robust pipeline of projects where we have been specified or invited to provide proposals for the landscape portion of projects across the US. This is not a transactional sales role; rather, it is a long-cycle, relationship-driven position that requires patience, technical credibility, and a deep understanding of the architectural sales evolution. You will be responsible for shepherding projects through the typical architectural building sales cycle (design development, construction documents, award), ensuring ORE’s solutions remain the lead specification from initial concept to final award. You will work directly with: Architects and Landscape Architects (specification phase). ORE internal Design Development, CAD, Project Management and Scheduling Teams. General Contractors (bidding and construction). Specialty subcontractors (installation coordination). Your primary objective is to get our systems specified as Basis of Design and shepherd projects through the bidding cycles with General contractors and bidding installing contractors.
