Director of Business Development

About the Job

Epic Cleantec (“Epic”) is focused on solving one of the great challenges of our time – the sustainable management of water. As cities grapple with water scarcity, aging infrastructure, and growing populations, we’re building a more resilient future, one building and community at a time. We envision a world where water reuse is the norm — not the exception.

We're not just designing and deploying systems — we’re shifting mindsets. Through our cutting-edge technology and storytelling approach, we inspire communities to rethink how they use water. From high-rise water reuse systems to recycled water beer, we're proving that sustainability can be bold, beautiful, and incredibly effective.

We are looking for a seasoned and well-connected Director of Business Development to drive Epic’s commercial growth across major real estate markets. This is not your typical sales role —we’re looking for someone who brings both the network and the technical fluency to lead conversations with developers, architects, engineers, and plumbing professionals. You’ll be the bridge between Epic’s technical expertise and the decision-makers shaping the buildings of tomorrow.

In 2023, Fast Company named us the #1 Most Innovative Small Company in America. In both 2024 and 2025, Inc. recognized us as one of the nation’s Best Workplaces. And our products have twice been named to TIME’s Best Inventions list.

If you're passionate about driving meaningful environmental and social change, this is the place for you.
