About Enertiv
Enertiv is a leading proptech platform that integrates hardware-enabled data collection with AI-powered analytics to transform the operation of commercial real estate portfolios. Our technology enables owners and operators to reduce operating costs, improve sustainability, and deliver enhanced tenant experiences.
We are at an inflection point: scaling toward our next stage of growth. Expansion revenue is our fastest-closing and most valuable growth driver — and flawless project delivery is the key to unlocking this flywheel.
The Role
We are seeking a Chief Operating Officer (COO) to own everything that happens after the ink is dry on the contract.
The COO will lead Operations, Customer Success, and Engineering Services — ensuring projects are delivered on time and at the highest quality. Flawless delivery builds trust and accelerates adoption, retention, and expansion — the engine of Enertiv’s growth.
The COO will work closely with the Founder & CEO and CFO to establish the operating foundation for long-term scalability.

- Thought Partnership: Acts as a trusted partner to the Founder & CEO and CFO, contributing to both daily decision-making and long-term strategy.
- Accountability: Holds themselves and their teams to uncompromising standards of execution and delivery.

- Clear Communicator: Translates complex operational and financial details into clear insights for executives, the board, and frontline teams.
- Balanced Operator: Bias for action while building scalable processes that prevent a firefighting culture.
- Resilience: Thrives in the ambiguity and pace of a scaling startup environment.
- Grit & Frugality: Operates with scrappiness and resourcefulness; optimizes for impact per dollar spent and instills financial discipline across teams.
- 95%+ projects delivered on-time and on-budget.
- Install cycle times reduced by 30–40%; project margins >35%.
- NRR >120%; GRR >90%; CSAT >9/10; NPS +60.

- Expansion revenue becomes the largest driver of ARR growth, closing ≥30% faster.

- Proven success scaling a SaaS or SaaS + hardware company from ~$10M → $50M ARR+.
- Mechanical or electrical engineering background with the ability to credibly lead installation-heavy projects, manage vendor/contractor ecosystems, and oversee technical teams — combined with a track record of growing into senior operating leadership.
- Experience working with commercial real estate landlords and tenants across logistics, data centers, multifamily, and office.
- Senior leadership in installation-heavy, hardware-enabled SaaS.
- Proven ability to raise the bar for team performance — developing top performers while addressing underperformance quickly and fairly.
