But we must preserve all substantive info; we could embed physical demands within Responsibilities or Requirements as a paragraph. That would preserve info. Similarly, we could embed work schedule under Schedule section.
Thus we will create sections:

- Summary: The Manager of Technical Pre-Sales Support will serve as a key technical interface between Qcells’ commercial organization and its utility-scale customers across solar PV and energy storage segments. This role is responsible for translating complex customer requirements into technically viable and commercially optimized solutions, supporting the pursuit of new EPC and equipment-only opportunities. The ideal candidate combines technical depth in PV and energy storage design with strong communication and collaboration skills. This individual will actively contribute to project qualification, solution development, and proposal generation across the pre-sales lifecycle. They will work closely with internal teams including Sales, Engineering, Estimating, Procurement, and Project Execution to ensure proposals are not only technically sound but also aligned with Qcells’ strategic goals. This position reports to the Chief Commercial Officer or another management personnel that CEO may designate, and is Hybrid-based in Houston, TX and working hours are Monday through Friday, from 8:00am to 5:00pm or 9:00am to 6:00pm local time. This position may require up to 30% travel. Applicants must be authorized to work for any employer in the United States. We are unable to sponsor or take over sponsorship of an employment visa at this time.
We can combine.
Responsibilities list (from Essential Job Function & Responsibilities):
- Serve as the technical subject matter expert for customer-facing sales support, focusing primarily on utility-scale PV module opportunities.
- Develop technical proposals, including PV module system configurations, layout optimization concepts, and preliminary single-line diagrams for solar projects.
- Support the preparation of technical responses to RFPs, RFIs, and due diligence requests, specifically addressing module performance, warranties, and technical specifications, in collaboration with sales and other internal teams.
- Contribute to the development of PV system performance models and energy yield analyses tailored to specific customer project sites and interconnection requirements.
- Collaborate with module product and engineering teams to provide input on customer needs and ensure alignment between technical solutions and project requirements.
- Analyze customer requirements and project specifications to inform PV module selection and support commercial strategies.
- Conduct technical presentations and participate in customer meetings to effectively communicate Qcells' PV module capabilities, technology roadmap, and value proposition.

- Familiarity with PV system design and performance tools (e.g., Helioscope, PVSyst, AutoCAD).
- Ability to interpret customer specifications, interconnection requirements, and performance guarantees to support the creation of technical designs.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills with the ability to clearly articulate complex technical information to various audiences.
- A collaborative and detail-oriented mindset with a focus on delivering effective solutions.
- Experience working in a cross-functional environment, interacting with sales, engineering, and construction teams.
- Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related technical field.
- Master’s degree is a plus.
We could separate some of these into Skills, but we already have Skills section for communication etc. However many of these are qualifications. We'll keep them all under Requirements.
Skills list: maybe we pull out communication, collaborative, detail-oriented, ability to interpret specs, etc. But we already included those in Requirements. To avoid duplication, we could move communication etc to Skills and keep Requirements focused on experience/education/technical knowledge. Let's split:
Requirements: experience, education, technical knowledge (PV module tech, MSA, Hail testing, PQP, field claim, codes/standards, tools, ability to interpret specs, cross-functional experience, degree).
Skills: communication, collaborative, detail-oriented, ability to articulate technical info, etc.
But we must preserve all info; splitting is fine as long as we don't lose anything.
