- Demonstrated ability to work independently with strong executive presence and operate as an owner of a territory.
- Annual quota responsibility is more than $15M USD with a record of consistent over achievement.
- Familiarity with CLD, upstream/downstream development, tech transfer, PPQ, and commercial manufacturing.
