Company mission
To transform the automotive and transportation industries, bringing to market EVs developed from the ground up to address the needs of the medium-duty vehicle industry.
Role
Who you are

- Strong understanding of automotive, commercial vehicles, electrification, industrial equipment, or related technologies
- Ability to simplify complex technical concepts for a wide range of audiences

- Comfortable working in a fast-moving, highly collaborative startup environment
Desirable
- Experience supporting commercial fleets or medium-duty vehicles

- Experience working with dealers, upfitters, or technical channel partners
What the job involves
- As a Sales Engineer, you’ll be the technical partner to our commercial sales team, helping customers understand how Harbinger’s platform solves real-world fleet challenges
- You’ll work directly with customers while partnering closely with Engineering, Product, Service, and Sales to develop technical solutions that accelerate vehicle adoption
- Partner with Sales throughout the customer journey, from initial discovery through vehicle delivery
- Lead technical discussions, product demonstrations, and customer presentations
- Understand customer operations and recommend vehicle configurations that meet their business needs

Our take
Traditionally, commercial fleets and medium-duty vehicle operators have faced barriers such as high acquisition costs and limited options in the electric vehicle market. Harbinger aims to disrupt this landscape by developing an electric stripped chassis that specifically caters to the performance, durability, and lifespan expectations of Class 4 to Class 6 vehicles.
The company's focus on delivering an EV platform priced with zero acquisition premium addresses a key obstacle in the widespread adoption of EVs within the commercial sector. With impressive funding to its name, a 2025-announced deal to build trucks for FedEx and a 2026 announced plan to build hybrid vehicles for emergency services, Harbinger Motors is ready to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of electric mobility for commercial and speciality vehicles.
