This position represents the company’s first dedicated U.S. hire , making it a highly visible and impactful role with direct collaboration across international teams.

About the Role

The focus of this role is not traditional aggressive sales , but rather technical credibility and education .

  • Support adoption and long-term success.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Build and manage relationships with dental labs across the U.S.
  • Conduct onsite lab visits to understand workflows and identify automation opportunities.
  • Educate customers on AI-powered CAD solutions and their operational benefits.
  • Support business development and proactive outreach , leveraging your existing industry network.
  • Act as a trusted technical advisor , translating complex AI concepts into practical lab value.
  • Collaborate closely with Sales, Product, and Technical teams based in Europe and Australia.
  • Represent the company at industry trade shows , with key interviews and meetings often held at major U.S. events (e.g., Chicago shows).
  • Provide structured feedback from the field to help shape product development and go-to-market strategy.

Mandatory Requirements:

  • Certified Dental Technician (CDT) – required.
  • 5–10 years of experience in a digital dental laboratory environment.
  • Strong understanding of digital workflows, CAD/CAM, and lab operations.
  • Demonstrated ability to communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Comfort transitioning from bench work into a customer-facing, consultative role.
  • Willingness to travel regularly (approximately one week per month , regionally organized).
  • Proactive, entrepreneurial mindset with the ability to work independently.
  • Comfortable with business development and relationship building , even if not a traditional salesperson.

Preferred Experience:

  • Prior experience in sales support, technical education, or lab consulting.
  • Exposure to AI, automation, or software-driven design tools.
  • Experience working with or supporting high-volume labs facing scaling challenges.
  • Existing U.S. dental lab network to support faster market entry.
  • Familiarity with the Canadian dental lab market (a plus).

Location & Travel:

  • U.S.-based position.
  • East Coast strongly preferred to align with Copenhagen-based teams (6-hour time difference).
  • Field-based role with regular travel to customer sites.

Work Style & Culture:

  • Strong emphasis on autonomy, accountability, and initiative.
  • Collaborative, remote-first environment across multiple countries.
  • Values technical credibility, trust, and long-term partnerships over aggressive sales tactics.

Compensation & Benefits:

  • Base salary + commission structure , targeting approximately 70% base / 30% variable.
  • Opportunity to grow with the company as U.S. operations expand.
