Science is developing technologies for a range of serious unmet medical needs. We are unafraid to take difficult technical risks, secure in the knowledge that with a clear understanding of what we are doing and with support from powerful modern tools, more progress is possible than might be immediately obvious. Regardless of role or team, the two most important factors we look for in a candidate are evidence of exceptional ability and the addition of positive energy to the group. As a small, early stage team in a largely unstructured environment, the ability to independently orient yourself to the problems that need to be solved and then follow through is essential.

As Head of Sales and Business Development, you will play a pivotal role in driving revenue growth and expanding the market presence of Science Foundry. You will be responsible for developing and executing strategic sales plans, cultivating relationships with new and existing customers, and driving business expansion.

• Collaborate with technical and operations teams to ensure alignment between customer requirements and manufacturing capabilities. 
• Stay abreast of industry trends, competitor activities, and market dynamics to inform strategic decision making. 
• Represent Science Foundry at industry events, conferences, and trade shows to enhance brand visibility and networking opportunities. 

Key qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Business Administrations, or related field.
• Proven track record of success in sales and business development within the MEMS or semiconductor industry.
• Strong technical acumen with a deep understanding of MEMS fabrication processes and applications.
• Excellent communication and negotiation skills, with the ability to build rapport and influence stakeholders at all levels.
• Willingness to travel as needed to meet with customers and attend industry events.
