Senior Technical Sales Lead Senior Technical Sales Lead at ATLANT 3D: own the full deal lifecycle from qualified lead to signed contract, translating deep‑tech science into clear business value. Deep-Tech Platform Sales | Advanced Materials | Semiconductors | Atomic-Scale Manufacturing Location: Copenhagen / Europe / Remote-Hybrid (30–40% global travel) Company: ATLANT 3D Role Type: Full-time Function: Technical Sales About ATLANT 3D ATLANT 3D is building the next generation of atomic-scale manufacturing technology. Our proprietary Direct Atomic Layer Processing (DALP®) and NANOFABRICATOR® platform enable innovators to discover, prototype, and industrialize advanced materials and devices faster, more locally, and with significantly reduced process complexity. We operate across multiple high-value industries, including semiconductors, advanced packaging, photonics, MEMS, energy, batteries, quantum technologies, aerospace, and advanced materials R&D. Our platform is designed to accelerate innovation from lab to fab. The Role This is a senior individual contributor role . “Lead” refers to ownership of complex technical sales opportunities, not people management. You will own the full commercial lifecycle, from qualified opportunity to signed contract, working with technical and executive stakeholders across industries. This role requires hands-on execution, technical credibility, and strong commercial drive. You will translate complex scientific capabilities into clear business value and guide customers from early interest to committed engagement. Mission of this Role Drive and close high-value technical deals by converting qualified opportunities into structured commercial engagements and long-term customer relationships. Key Responsibilities Own and drive opportunities from qualification to signed contracts and purchase orders Convert qualified leads and strategic target accounts into commercial outcomes (need to go back in for clarification of actual conversion of opportunities) Lead technical discovery with R&D, engineering, and executive stakeholders Identify and articulate the customer’s business case (e.g., cost, speed, yield, time-to-market, strategic advantage) Define, structure and commercially drive PoCs, pilots, and validation pathways to advance deals Develop and present proposals linking technical capabilities to commercial impact Navigate complex, multi-stakeholder sales and procurement processes Collaborate cross-functionally with applications, R&D, product, and leadership teams Maintain pipeline momentum, forecasting accuracy, and deal execution. Your Profile You have experience selling complex technical platforms where both technical understanding and business case clarity are critical to closing deals. What Success Looks Like Success means converting qualified opportunities into signed agreements, progressing customers from technical interest to PoCs, pilots, and equipment sales, expanding initial use cases into broader engagements, and maintaining accurate pipeline ownership and forecasting. Technical Background Degree in Materials Science, Physics, Chemistry, Nanotechnology, Semiconductor/Electrical Engineering, or similar or equivalent industry experience in technical sales, applications, or engineering Ability to: Engage credibly with engineers, scientists, and R&D leaders Understand concepts such as materials processing, thin films, and fabrication workflows Translate technical capabilities into clear commercial value. Lead technical discovery conversations without relying entirely on internal experts. 7+ years in technical B2B sales, capital equipment, or deep-tech environments Proven track record of closing complex, high-value deals with long sales cycles Experience in one or more relevant industries (e.g., semiconductors, advanced materials, MEMS, photonics, energy, aerospace) Experience managing full deal cycles (PoC → pilot → validation → negotiation → close) Strong pipeline management and forecasting discipline Excellent communication skills and ability to operate across global stakeholders A technical degree is strongly preferred due to the complexity of the product and customer environment. Mindset Commercially driven and focused on outcomes Technically curious and comfortable with complex domains Structured and disciplined in execution Comfortable operating in ambiguity and emerging markets Collaborative, pragmatic, and solution-oriented High ownership with strong follow-through. What This Role Is Not This role may not be the right fit if you: Prefer selling only mature, well-defined products Rely heavily on inbound leads without proactive ownership Avoid technical discussions Prioritize activity over measurable commercial outcomes Require a fully defined playbook before taking action.
