Sales Engineer Commercial HVAC & VRF Full-Cycle Technical Sales Python & FastAPI LLM & MCP Integration AWS & Cloudflare Embedded / ESP32 Solution Design

I own the technical thread on every deal — discovery, solution design, and close — for engineered products in commercial HVAC. Four-plus years of consultative, full-cycle technical sales spent translating what a customer actually needs into equipment that gets specified, installed, and works in the field.

Outside that role I’m a hands-on builder. I designed and shipped a cross-platform SaaS — web plus native Android, REST APIs, cloud-backed sync, and custom ESP32 hardware of my own design — and turned it into a small business with a paying customer base of over 50 users, self-sourcing every one of them.

I use AI daily in how I build: agentic coding tools, MCP integrations, self-hosted models, and LLM APIs wired directly into production software. That is how proposal and submittal work that used to take an hour now takes five minutes. The approach is the same on either side of the desk: understand the problem fully, then solve it precisely.
