About Grounded
The deal at Grounded is a configured vehicle, not a seat license: the 25-person Detroit startup puts modular electric bodies with battery power, Starlink connectivity and its own Grounded+ fleet software on OEM cab chassis, and sells them to buyers who often need several, such as mobile healthcare networks, service companies, police departments and brands like Colgate and Nokia. Its sales team is being built from the ground up in three seats: a fleet sales account manager who carries qualified opportunities through quote, negotiation, contract and delivery and then chases repeat orders, an SDR who writes the outbound lists, sequences and messaging across a dozen verticals and books meetings for the account managers, and a sales engineer who turns a buyer's needs into a buildable spec. That engineer also helps build the module library and configurator meant to let sellers scope a vehicle without pulling in engineering on every deal. The other three of its six Sales-department openings are content jobs (a multimedia content creator, a content and social media manager and a videographer/photographer) that feed the website, social channels and sales decks. All six are in person at its Corktown factory, and the selling roles work in HubSpot.

Job seekers never pay to use this board. An Apply button opens the employer's own application page, or the page of the recruiting firm filling the seat; only where a company or its recruiting firm pays us for a hire who came from here does that link carry our referral code, and the fee comes from them, never out of the base or OTE the role offers you.
