Why This Role
Most jobs selling heat pumps mean carrying the same product as everyone else, from an OEM that’s been doing things the same way for 100 years. This one is different. Quilt reinvented the heat pump and is also reinventing what an HVAC OEM looks like. That starts with heat pump systems homeowners actually want in their homes and software that makes our partners’ businesses easier to run. As our Regional Partner Sales Manager for the South Central region, you’re the one bringing that to the South Central US.
The territory is early, so the partners you grow, the new ones you sign and the playbook you build will shape what Quilt looks like there for years. You’d be joining early enough to build the region your way, with a product you’re proud to put in front of contractors and a company growing fast enough that your career can grow with it.
Why Quilt
Heating and cooling is going through its biggest shift in decades. Over 80 million US homes will move from burning fuel to electric heat pumps, pushed along by rebates, regulation and homeowners who want lower bills and a better product. That’s one of the largest replacement cycles in any market, and the incumbents are showing up with the same beige boxes and clunky remotes they’ve always sold.
We built something better. Quilt makes beautifully designed, AI-optimized heat pump systems with software that makes it easier for dealers to sell, install and service. We sell only through HVAC contractors, with ~160 Quilt Certified Partners across the US and Canada today, and everything we build starts with helping those partners grow their top line and run a more efficient business.
We’re also building the first true consumer brand in HVAC, and we’re doing it alongside the brands our partners have spent years, and often generations, earning in their communities. Homeowners trust the name on their local contractor’s truck, and we believe that name matters more than ours. So rather than competing with our partners for the customer, everything we build is meant to make them look better at the kitchen table.
Our Mission
Quilt’s mission is to move humanity off fossil fuels. Homes produce about 20% of US warming emissions (more than cars), and most of that comes from burning fuel for heat. If that matters to you, you’ll fit right in here. If you’re here because you love seeing the impact of your work every day and selling a product that actually matters, you’ll fit right in too.
The Role
You’ll own Quilt’s partner channel across the South Central United States, and you’ll do two jobs at once. Most of your time goes to helping our existing Certified Partners sell and install more Quilt, and the rest goes to finding and signing the next wave of great contractors in the territory. That means being on the road a lot: ride-alongs with install crews, training sessions with sales teams, and walking into contractor shops to make the case for Quilt.
You’re the face of Quilt to the HVAC community in the South Central US, and the business you build there is something you’ll be able to point to.
