- Serve as a subject matter expert for device service and repair capabilities (e.g., installation, preventive maintenance, break/fix, depot repair, returns, warranty/entitlements) and their integration with commercial sales motions (e.g., service attach, renewals, upsell).
- Design and improve end-to-end processes across lead-to-order, quote-to-cash, order-to-cash, service-to-resolution, and returns/RMA—driving cycle time reduction, quality, compliance, and customer experience.
- Translate business requirements into functional solution designs for commercial sales and service/field service platforms (e.g., case management, FSM scheduling/dispatch, technician mobility, knowledge, parts/asset management), partnering closely with product, architecture, and delivery teams.
- Own end-to-end consulting delivery for MedTech sales/service transformation programs—from problem definition and current-state assessment through implementation support, adoption, and value realization.
- Partner with cross-functional stakeholders (Sales, Service Operations, Quality/Regulatory, Supply Chain/Parts, Finance, IT, and Customer Support) to align governance, KPIs, and operating rhythms.
- Identify and shape opportunities across commercial sales effectiveness, field service modernization, and service revenue growth (e.g., contracts, renewals, entitlements, warranty optimization).
- Develop accelerators, frameworks, and reusable assets for MedTech commercial sales/service and field service engagements; mentor consultants and managers on domain processes and consulting best practices.
