  • Achieve revenue targets through effective pre-sales consultation and product strategy execution.
  • Internal Training & Cross-Functional Support

  • Train internal teams on applications and instrument use.
  • Work with Operations to manage demo / lab shipments and equipment.
  • Maintain and organize internal resources for knowledge sharing and onboarding (e.g., SOPs, videos, documentation).
  • Requirements :

  • Education : Bachelor’s degree in a relevant STEM field required, Chemistry preferred.
  • Technical Experience : 3+ years of experience in product management, product specialist, applications, technical sales, or similar roles.
  • Client-Facing Experience : Success in customer-facing roles involving training, demos, or technical consultation.
  • Communication Skills : Strong verbal and written communication skills with the ability to convey technical concepts in an accessible and engaging manner. Professional, polished demeanor with excellent interpersonal communication skills.
  • Collaboration Skills : Self-motivated, goal-oriented, and comfortable balancing multiple priorities across teams. Ability to lead cross-functional projects and influence go-to-market outcomes.
  • Travel : Willingness to travel periodically for roadshows and client engagements.
  • Computer Skills : Proficient with Microsoft Suite; experience with Salesforce preferred.
