Job description

At Luxer One, we’re committed to simplifying life by automating package acceptance and completely solving the package problem using the best technologies available. Whether it’s last-mile delivery at multifamily properties and offices, or click-and-collect orders in retail, we find the best solutions for our customers and ensure their success.

We are seeking a new Sales Enablement & Solutions Lead to join our rapidly growing team!

As the Sales Enablement & Solutions Lead, you will make Access Control easy to sell, easy to scope, and easy to deliver. This role is the bridge between Access Control product/engineering/operations and the MF Sales & Marketing teams - translating a technical hardware platform into clear sales materials, repeatable solutioning, and in-the-room and on-call support that helps reps close the right deals with the right configurations the first time.

This team member is more sales partner than engineer. The right person spends ~60% of their time on sales enablement, GTM operations, and field-facing materials, and ~40% on direct deal support, pre-sale technical validation.

What You Do (Key Responsibilities)

Be the operational and technical backbone for Access Control sales — primary attachment to MF Sales, with extension into the broader HSI Sales motion (VAR, ISS, key accounts) as Luxer Access scales. Partner closely with Marketing, Product, Engineering, and Install/Operations to drive clarity, consistency, and win rates.

Sales Enablement & Onboarding
  • Build and own the Access Control sales onboarding curriculum - from product fundamentals (NTX700 controller, Intercom ID, supported lock hardware, network/power requirements) to discovery, scoping, and objection handling.

  • Run recurring enablement sessions (Sales new-hire bootcamps, monthly product updates, deep-dives on edge cases) and certify reps (VAR and ISS as needed) on Access Control fluency.

  • Partner with VAR Sales leadership to ramp new sellers and channel partners faster than the current baseline.

Sales Materials, Tools & Job Aids
  • Build and maintain the Access Control sales toolkit: pitch decks, one-pagers, ROI calculators, site-readiness checklists, scoping worksheets, competitive battlecards, and FAQ libraries.

  • Translate engineering and product documentation into clear, sales-usable assets - so reps don't have to interpret spec sheets in front of a customer.

  • Own version control and ensure the field always has the current, approved materials.

GTM Strategy & Sales Operations
  • Partner with Sales and Marketing leadership to operationalize the Access Control Go-to-Market plan - segmentation, ideal customer profile, target verticals, and sales plays.

  • Improve sales process consistency in CRM (Zoho): stage definitions, exit criteria, required fields, and the data needed for accurate forecasting on Access Control pipeline.

  • Surface field intelligence - won/lost reasons, pricing pressure, configuration trends - back to Product and Marketing to inform roadmap and positioning.

Deal Support & Solutions Engineering
  • Join sales calls, walk-throughs, and customer technical reviews as the Access Control subject-matter expert.

  • Validate that proposed configurations are technically sound: power path, network requirements, lock hardware compatibility, environmental fit, code/UL294 considerations, and biometric compliance flags by jurisdiction.

  • Stay engaged through project install, not just scoping. Partner install team / installer to confirm what was sold is what gets installed — and installed correctly. On GC- and PM-coordinated projects: configuration sign-offs, site briefings, and documented handoff notes so the project lead can spot drift and scope creep.

  • Quarterback escalations to Engineering and Operations when a deal falls outside standard scope, and document the resolution back into sales playbooks.

Cross-Functional Alignment & Handoffs
  • Ensure clean, data-rich handoffs from Sales to Install/Project Management - site readiness confirmed, scope locked, surprises minimized - to support first-time-right delivery.

  • Align with Engineering, Product, ARR, and Operations on definitions, terminology, and field-facing language so the customer hears one consistent story.



RequirementsExperience & Qualifications
Required
  • 5+ years in a sales-adjacent role: sales enablement, sales engineering, solutions consulting, technical pre-sales, or sales operations.

  • Demonstrated ability to translate technical product detail into clear, sales-usable materials - be prepared to share examples (decks, playbooks, training programs you built).

  • Hands-on experience supporting a B2B sales team in the field - joining calls, scoping deals, handling technical objections.

  • Working knowledge of access control, IP networking, low-voltage installation, or comparable hardware-plus-software systems.

  • Comfort in CRM (Zoho preferred; Salesforce, HubSpot, or similar acceptable) - building reports, cleaning data, partnering on workflow design.

  • Strong written and verbal communication. You can run a 15-person enablement session and a 1:1 deal review with equal effectiveness.

Nice to Have
  • Direct experience with ASSA ABLOY, Accentra, Control iD, or similar access control platforms.

  • Experience in multifamily, proptech, hardware + SaaS, or VAR/channel-driven sales models.

  • Familiarity with EOS / Traction operating cadence (Scorecards, Rocks, L10s).

  • Experience working alongside Operations / Installations to connect what's sold to what gets delivered.

  • Background that includes any of: biometric data compliance (BIPA, CUBI, NYC Biometric ID Law), UL294 certification context, or property-tech integrations (PMS, smart locks, package systems).
