• Articulate Scientific Value: Partner with the sales team as a scientific expert, conducting product demonstrations that showcase the potential of our software to prospective clients.
• Be the Voice of the Client: Act as the vital bridge between our clients and internal teams (Product, Marketing, R&D), translating feedback into insights that shape the future of our platform.
• Share Your Expertise: Develop and deliver engaging scientific and technical presentations to peers and clients, including at industry conferences, workshops, and client meetings.

Skills & Experience:

• Deep hands-on experience in mass spectrometry for large molecule characterization. Specific expertise in one or more of the following is essential: intact mass analysis, peptide mapping, and PTM analysis.
• An advanced degree (Ph.D. or M.S.) in Analytical Chemistry, Biochemistry, or a related field is preferred. We also enthusiastically welcome candidates with a B.S. and 10+ years of directly relevant industry experience.
• Experience with scientific programming in Python or R is a plus
• Must be legally authorized to work for any employer in the U.S.

Who You Are:

• A Scientist First: You have a collaborative, client-focused mindset, but your primary passion is solving complex data challenges. While deep scientific expertise is the key requirement for this role, we are fully committed to mentoring and developing your skills in client engagement and scientific consulting.
• An Intellectually Curious Problem-Solver: You enjoy the process of investigating a complex problem, uncovering the core need, and designing an elegant solution.
• An Excellent Communicator: You can effectively explain complex scientific concepts to diverse audiences, from fellow scientists to project managers.
