Zero Impact Solutions is an end-to-end renewable energy provider. We design, finance, build and maintain EV charging, fleet electrification, solar microgrid, battery energy storage and hydroponic systems for commercial and enterprise clients - and we handle every step in-house: sales, provisioning, design and engineering, contracting and construction, servicing and maintenance. We are a licensed C-10 contractor with construction crews across California, and our projects are backed by state and utility incentive programs (such as CALeVIP, utility make-ready programs and LCFS credits) that provide a steady, reliable flow of revenue.

We are growing fast and we run lean. If you want to work on real infrastructure with a small, fast-moving team - and you like using technology to get more done - we want to speak with you.

The Sales Admin is the operational engine behind our sales team. You own the systems, data and project cadence that turn a signed proposal into a funded, permitted and built project: keeping our CRM accurate, our rebate applications on schedule, our customers informed, and our sales reps focused on selling.

This is not a clerical position. We are looking for someone who thinks like a business analyst, works like a project manager, and uses AI tools every day to work faster. You will support deal flow directly (proposals, quotes, customer follow-up), manage a caseload of active projects across sales, engineering, incentives and construction, and continuously improve how the sales organization operates.
