Love being on the field instead of behind a desk? This role is for you!
Extensive city travel to sites, engineers, and dealers is part of the job. Two-wheeler travel is mandatory. Diploma holders in Civil, Mechanical, Chemical, or Metallurgy only. If you're looking for a desk job or feel overqualified, this role isn't the right fit.
Position Summary
The Technical Engineer is a newly created, field-facing technical sales support role. Working in close partnership with the Sales team (Sales Executives, Sales In-charge, and Sales Managers), the Technical Engineer's core mandate is to build technical credibility for the brand on the ground — engaging directly with influencers, end users, dealers, engineers, and architects to educate them on product technical parameters and influence purchase and specification decisions in the brand's favour. The role demands extensive travel and frequent site visits across the assigned territory.

· Build and sustain strong, trust-based relationships with masons, civil contractors, bar benders, builders, project consultants, and dealer/sub-dealer teams.

· Coordinate with the internal sales team on quotations, pricing, order conversion, and delivery follow-up.
· Support conversion of site-generated leads into dealer billing and direct sales.
· Assist in branding and promotional activities at project sites and dealer locations.
Market Intelligence & Reporting
· Collect and report on ongoing and upcoming projects, material requirements, and competitor brands/activity at site.
· Track and report daily site visits, leads generated, customer feedback, and market updates to the reporting manager.
Required Skills & Competencies
· Sound technical knowledge of construction materials, site practices, and product application relevant to the industry.
· Excellent communication, persuasion, and technical explanation skills to influence a wide range of stakeholders — from masons and contractors to engineers and architects.
· Strong relationship-building and interpersonal skills across all levels of the influencer and dealer ecosystem.
· High willingness and physical ability to travel extensively and undertake frequent site visits.
· Self-driven, energetic, and comfortable working independently in the field.
