About the Role
Join a technical pre-sales team at a B2B software company focused on digital transformation for industrial research and development. You will connect deep chemistry and materials science expertise with enterprise R&D workflows, helping prospective customers understand the value of modern data platforms.
What You'll Do
Own technical pre-sales engagements from initial demonstrations through value cases, technical evaluations, and pilot execution.
Build tailored demonstrations, workshops, and pilots that reflect each prospect's research and development workflows.
Partner with account executives and customer stakeholders to support value-based selling and new business.
Lead technical evaluations and presentations, explaining how digital tools can improve R&D data management and innovation.
Mentor and coordinate junior team members supporting technical evaluations.
Write scripts and configure platform integrations to support prospect engagements.
Travel approximately 25% to 50% for customer meetings, presentations, and workshops.

Four to seven years of relevant experience, including at least four years in digitalization, change management, or R&D leadership.
An advanced degree in chemistry, chemical engineering, or materials science, with a focus on machine learning or computational methods.
Strong chemistry or materials science expertise and an understanding of enterprise R&D workflows and laboratory informatics.
Experience building and demonstrating technical platforms for enterprise customers, ideally alongside R&D digitalization or organizational change initiatives.
A value-based sales approach, strong communication skills, and the ability to take ownership in a fast-paced pre-sales environment.
Python scripting skills are useful. Management consulting experience with a science background is also relevant.
Fluent English and, for European locations, C1 or higher proficiency in the local language.
Willingness and ability to travel 25% to 50%, and authorization to work in the United States, United Kingdom, or Germany. Visa sponsorship is not available.
Compensation & Benefits
Base salary: $120,000 to $150,000 USD annually.
Location
Hybrid, based in Munich, Germany. London or New York may also be considered.
Prepare your application
Use the description above to assess your fit for True Talent Solutions Partners. This checklist is guidance from Resumize, rather than additional requirements from the employer. Imported listings can be shortened or change after collection, so confirm the complete description and current availability before sending an application.
Match requirements to evidence
Identify the responsibilities and skills the employer explicitly names. For each important requirement, choose one example from your work, education, training, or projects. Explain what you did, how you did it, and what changed as a result. Include a measurable outcome when you can support it. If you lack a requirement, describe related experience accurately instead of adding an unfamiliar skill to your resume.
Put the most relevant examples near the top of your resume. Keep job titles, dates, qualifications, and contact details consistent across your application materials. Use the employer’s terminology when it describes your experience accurately; a copied list of keywords does not explain your contribution. A short, specific bullet is easier to review than a paragraph that mixes several unrelated duties.
Check the working arrangement
Confirm the location, schedule, employment type, and any eligibility requirements on the employer’s site. A remote label does not establish worldwide eligibility or flexible hours. If compensation, benefits, equipment, travel, or contract duration are missing from this listing, write down your questions for the recruiter. Do not assume details from another opening at the same company apply to this role.
Review before submitting
Follow the employer’s requested file format and application instructions. Open your exported resume and check that its text is selectable, its sections read in order, and its links work. Proofread names, dates, and contact information. Share confidential work samples only when you have permission, and use an anonymized example when necessary.
Submit through a trusted employer or recruiting destination. If the original listing has disappeared, search the employer’s careers page for the title rather than assuming the vacancy remains open. Save the application date, job reference, and the version of your resume you sent. Those details help you prepare for a later conversation and avoid submitting conflicting information through several job boards.
Review your resume for writing and readability feedback, or browse other openings if this opportunity is unavailable.
