• Partner with our engineering teams to provide feedback and field testing of new hardware and software features.
• Partner with our sales and marketing teams to educate potential new customers, contribute to patient and physician education events, recommend solutions to streamline the initiation of new sites, and identify areas where we can help existing customers offer TULSA to more patients.
• Serve as the voice of customer in identifying and prioritizing the most impactful areas of improving the technology by developing close relationships with physicians that use TULSA-PRO, and by leveraging their own experience in related disciplines.
• Must have a valid passport and be willing to travel 100% of the time, including nights and weekends, sometimes with short notice.
