Sales & Estimating Engineer

$90k–$130k/yrFull-time
We need to output only HTML fragment, no html/body tags, no markdown fences. Use

for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections where posting has real specific content. We need to parse the posting. First part: "As a Sales & Estimating Engineer, you will support business growth by combining technical engineering expertise with commercial sales capabilities. In this role, you will develop accurate cost estimates, prepare technical and commercial proposals, support customer engagement activities, and collaborate with engineering, sales, and operations teams to deliver technically sound and commercially competitive solutions." That's description of role. Could be "About the role". We'll put that in

About the role

then

with that paragraph. Next: "What’s in it For You Opportunity to work across engineering, sales, and operations functionsExposure to customer-facing technical sales and business development activitiesAbility to influence project success through accurate estimating and proposal developmentOpportunity to support business growth and customer satisfaction through technical expertise" These are bullet-like but not separated by punctuation. They are phrases concatenated. We need to extract list items. Likely each phrase separated by capital letter after no space? Actually text: "Opportunity to work across engineering, sales, and operations functionsExposure to customer-facing technical sales and business development activitiesAbility to influence project success through accurate estimating and proposal developmentOpportunity to support business growth and customer satisfaction through technical expertise". There's no spaces between. We need to split into separate items: "Opportunity to work across engineering, sales, and operations functions", "Exposure to customer-facing technical sales and business development activities", "Ability to influence project success through accurate estimating and proposal development", "Opportunity to support business growth and customer satisfaction through technical expertise". We'll put under a section maybe "Benefits"? Actually these are "What's in it For You" which are benefits/perks. Could be Benefits section. But we also have a separate Benefits section later with detailed benefits. The "What's in it For You" seems like highlights. Could be considered Benefits. However we already have a Benefits section later with exhaustive list. We could still include a Benefits section with those items? But the instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. We could combine these into Benefits? But we also have a detailed Benefits list later. Might be better to treat "What's in it For You" as a separate section like "Benefits" but we already have Benefits later. Could merge? The instruction: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it. The posting does have specific content for benefits (the long list). So we should have a Benefits section with that list. The "What's in it For You" could be considered part of "About the role" or maybe "Responsibilities"? Actually it's more like "What you'll gain". Could be considered "Benefits". But we already have Benefits; we could incorporate those bullet points into Benefits as well, but we must not lose info. We could create a section "What's in it For You" but that's not one of the allowed headings. Allowed headings are About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we must map content to those headings. The "What's in it For You" likely belongs to Benefits. So we can include those bullet points in Benefits section along with the detailed benefits list. However we must not repeat content? It's okay to include both. Next: "What You Will Do" then a long list of duties. That's Responsibilities. Then "Position Details" includes: Reports to: Global Director, Business Development; Occasional travel...; Onsite at Vancouver, WA office (hybrid on site). That's metadata; we can fold into a short

maybe under About the role or Responsibilities? Probably we can put under About the role as a short paragraph. Then "Minimum Qualifications" list: Bachelor’s degree... etc. That's Requirements or Qualifications? The allowed headings: Requirements, Qualifications. Minimum Qualifications likely go under Requirements. Preferred Qualifications go under Qualifications? Or Skills? Actually "Preferred Qualifications" could be Qualifications. We'll treat Minimum Qualifications as Requirements, Preferred Qualifications as Qualifications. Then "Careers Advancing Ovivo by Ecolab’s Water Technology Solutions" paragraph is fluff; could be About the role? It's more marketing. Could be omitted? It's substantive but not required. We could include under About the role as additional paragraph. Then "Annual Or Hourly Compensation Range The pay for this role $90,000-$130,000 Many factors..." That's Pay section. Must include Pay heading with that content. Then "Benefits Ecolab provides the following benefits: medical, dental, vision, ..." That's Benefits section. Then "Potential Customer Requirements Notice ..." that's boilerplate; remove. Then "Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA) ..." boilerplate; remove. Then "Our Commitment to a Culture of Inclusion & Belonging ..." boilerplate; remove. We must not include sections like Schedule if not present. No schedule info. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Pay, Benefits. We need to ensure we don't include empty sections. Now craft HTML. We'll use

About the role

then

containing the role description plus position details plus the Ovivo paragraph maybe. Let's extract role description paragraph: "As a Sales & Estimating Engineer, you will support business growth by combining technical engineering expertise with commercial sales capabilities. In this role, you will develop accurate cost estimates, prepare technical and commercial proposals, support customer engagement activities, and collaborate with engineering, sales, and operations teams to deliver technically sound and commercially competitive solutions." Position details: "Reports to: Global Director, Business Development; Occasional travel to customer sites, meetings, or project locations as required; Onsite at Vancouver, WA office (hybrid on site)". We'll combine into a sentence. Ovivo paragraph: "Help shape the future of water and technology by joining a team that drives innovation in ultrapure water solutions —critical to industries powering global progress. These careers offer the chance to make an impact that matters solving complex challenges, collaborating across borders, and creating solutions that protect vital resources. If you’re passionate about water circularity, sustainability and technology, explore opportunities where your expertise fuels advancement and your growth is supported." We'll combine. Now Responsibilities: list of duties from "What You Will Do". Need to convert each line into

  • . The text after "What You Will Do" includes many sentences separated by line breaks? In the source it's a paragraph with line breaks? We'll split by sentences that start with a verb. Let's extract bullet points: - Support business development and customer acquisition activities as a technical sales representative - Engage with customers to understand technical requirements, specifications, and project scope - Deliver technical presentations, product demonstrations, and solution recommendations - Support pricing, terms, and commercial negotiations in coordination with management - Build and maintain relationships with customers, consultants, and key stakeholders - Prepare detailed cost estimates based on drawings, specifications, and customer requirements - Analyze labor, material, equipment, subcontractor, and overhead costs - Develop technical and commercial proposals, quotations, and bid documentation - Review RFQs, tenders, and bid packages to ensure compliance and accuracy - Review engineering drawings, specifications, and standards to assess technical feasibility - Coordinate with engineering, procurement, and production teams to obtain technical inputs - Support value engineering and cost optimization initiatives - Assist with post-award handoff from sales to project execution teams - Monitor market trends, competitor pricing, and customer requirements - Support development of sales tools, costing templates, and standardized estimating processes - Maintain costing databases, pricing models, and historical estimate records - Assist management with sales forecasting and opportunity tracking We'll put those in
    • . Now Requirements (Minimum Qualifications): - Bachelor’s degree in Engineering (Mechanical, Chemical, or related field) - Experience in project-based environments such as construction, industrial manufacturing, or engineering services - Experience with ERP and CRM systems - Minimum 5 years of experience in sales engineering, application engineering, estimating, technical sales, or related roles - Strong understanding of engineering drawings, specifications, and technical documentation - Experience with cost estimation, BOQ preparation, and pricing analysis Now Qualifications (Preferred Qualifications): - Proficiency with Microsoft Excel and estimating tools - Ability to interpret customer RFQs and tender documents - Strong communication and presentation skills - Commercial awareness and negotiation skills - Analytical mindset with strong attention to detail - Ability to work effectively across cross-functional teams - Customer-focused, results-driven, and proactive approach - Ability to manage multiple bids and deadlines simultaneously Now Pay: The pay for this role $90,000-$130,000 Many factors are taken into consideration when determining compensation, such as experience, education, training, geography, etc. We comply with all minimum wage and overtime laws. We'll put that in

      . Now Benefits: list of benefits from "Ecolab provides the following benefits: medical, dental, vision, life insurance, accident insurance, critical illness insurance, hospital indemnity insurance, auto insurance, home insurance, pet insurance, identity theft protection, short-term and long-term disability, 401k, pension plans, retirement health care benefits, short-term incentives, vacation (12 days), holidays, parental leave, employee stock purchase plans (Full-Time Associates), discount on day care services and caregiver services, adoption assistance, group legal services, employee assistance program, employee discount program, and education assistance program, on-Site childcare and fitness facilities may be available at select Ecolab locations." We could also include the "What's in it For You" items as part of benefits. But to avoid duplication, we could incorporate them as additional bullet points. However the instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include those "What's in it For You" points somewhere. If we only include the long benefits list, we lose those four points. So we need to include them. We could add them as bullet points in the Benefits section as well. That would preserve all info. Thus Benefits section will have a

      • list containing both the four "What's in it For You" items and the detailed benefits list. However the detailed benefits list is a long sentence separated by commas; we could split into items for clarity but not required; we can keep as a

        with the list. But we need to use

        • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So for benefits we should use
          • . So we need to split the benefits into list items. That's a lot but doable. We'll create list items for each benefit mentioned: - medical - dental - vision - life insurance - accident insurance - critical illness insurance - hospital indemnity insurance - auto insurance - home insurance - pet insurance - identity theft protection - short-term disability - long-term disability - 401k - pension plans - retirement health care benefits - short-term incentives - vacation (12 days) - holidays - parental leave - employee stock purchase plans (Full-Time Associates) - discount on day care services - discount on caregiver services - adoption assistance - group legal services - employee assistance program - employee discount program - education assistance program - on‑Site childcare and fitness facilities may be available at select Ecolab locations Also include the four "What's in it For You" items: - Opportunity to work across engineering, sales, and operations functions - Exposure to customer-facing technical sales and business development activities - Ability to influence project success through accurate estimating and proposal development - Opportunity to support business growth and customer satisfaction through technical expertise We'll combine them all in one
            • list under Benefits. Now ensure we don't include any boilerplate. Now
