Customer Engineer (Coordinator)
About Willow Willow is building the leading Operational AI platform for the built world. We help owners and operators of large, complex environments better understand, manage, and optimize their buildings and infrastructure by connecting physical, operational, and human data into a unified digital foundation. Our platform enables customers to move from fragmented systems and reactive workflows to smarter operations, better decision-making, and meaningful financial and operational outcomes. We are at an important stage of company growth: scaling commercial momentum, increasing operating rigor, and building the foundation for long-term category leadership.
About the Role
