  • You're comfortable with 50% travel and thrive in hybrid technical-sales environments where you're the expert bridge between R&D and field
  • You're curious about market trends, competitive dynamics, and customer needs—and you proactively contribute insights to shape product strategy
Won't Work If
  • You need 100% remote work or can't commit to 50% travel within US and Canada
  • You lack hands-on lab and manufacturing floor experience—this role is technical-first, not just sales-facing
