📝 Tips for Applying to MUUS & Company
Tailor your resume to highlight quantifiable sales achievements in infrastructure or construction tech, such as 'Exceeded quota by 120% in 2023 by selling SaaS solutions to municipal clients.'
In your cover letter, explicitly connect your sales experience to the mission of decarbonization, showing genuine interest in climate tech.
Research the AUTOSPEX® platform and mention specific features (e.g., AI-driven defect detection) in your application to demonstrate product knowledge.
If you have experience selling to government entities (B2G), emphasize that, as the role targets infrastructure owners who are often public agencies.
Prepare a concise 'elevator pitch' explaining how you would approach selling a technical platform to civil engineers—include it in your cover letter or portfolio.
