About Klir
We are hiring to make water better!
Disclaimer: Before applying, we encourage you to watch this short video from our Chief Revenue Officer, Jacquie Dwyer, who walks through who we are, what we do, and what makes Klir a special place to build your career.
For too long, utilities have had to manage water through fragmented systems, siloed data, and workflows held together by institutional memory. As costs rise, teams shrink, and operational decisions demand real-time clarity, connected data is no longer a nice-to-have. It’s essential.
At Klir, our mission is simple:
Make Water Better.
We believe the future of water is generative - built on connected data, clear workflows, and operational continuity. Klir is the Operational Data Hub that unifies sampling, monitoring, permits, backflow, and reuse into one connected view of the utility. When data, systems, and decisions finally flow through a single hub, teams gain the confidence, control, and time they need to focus on what actually moves water forward.
Backed by Insight Partners, Bowery Capital, and Spider Capital, Klir is one of the fastest-growing companies in the digital water space. Utilities consistently tell us that Klir has transformed the way they work - and we’re looking for ambitious Account Executives who want to be part of a high-growth, mission-driven company that’s redefining an industry.
Location: This position is full remote.

You will run the full sales cycle from qualification to close, partnering closely with a dedicated BDR and a shared Solutions Engineering resource
. You’ll guide public-sector buyers who are often purchasing SaaS for the first time, navigating them through procurement, internal alignment, and a structured process that keeps deals moving.
