Help Industries Cut 20–30% of Their Energy Costs

Join Zerowatt as a Business Development Manager – Industrial Energy Intelligence

Why Zerowatt?

 

Zerowatt is building the most advanced industrial Energy Intelligence platform in the market.

 

Our system enables industries to achieve 20–30% direct reduction in energy costs by continuously identifying energy waste, inefficiencies, and equipment health issues—in real time.

 

This is not a dashboard, and not a “digital energy expert.”

 

Zerowatt functions as a Digital Brain for the Factory—an end-to-end system that:

 

• Integrates electrical, process, and operational data
• Applies AI and engineering logic continuously
• Converts raw signals into clear, actionable decisions
• Learns and improves with every operating hour

 

Industries don’t need multiple vendors, audits, or spreadsheets. Zerowatt becomes the single intelligence layer across the factory.

 

In a short span, 100+ industrial plants across India are already using Zerowatt to reduce energy costs, improve reliability, and support sustainability and ESG goals.

 

We are a mission-driven, IIT-backed startup, turning energy efficiency into a competitive advantage—and climate action into measurable results.

 

 

Ideal Customers You’ll Work With (Bangalore Region)

 

Energy-intensive industries such as:

 

• Electronics & electrical manufacturing
• Pharmaceuticals & life sciences
• Engineering & auto ancillaries
• Large utilities-driven plants with compressors, chillers, motors, furnaces, and boilers

 

Typical clusters include Peenya, Bommasandra, Bidadi, Dabaspet, and Nelamangala.

 

Prior experience working with such industrial customers is strongly preferred.

• Proven ability to do consultative, on-site selling and manage long-cycle industrial sales
• Willingness to travel 30–40% of the time across Bangalore industrial areas
• High ambition, ownership mindset, and desire to grow with a scaling startup, not just manage accounts
