About Lazarus 3D:

Surgeon skill and experience are among the biggest determinants of patient outcomes. Yet surgeons often have to learn hands-on skills in live procedures, where mistakes can be costly.

Lazarus 3D helps doctors Operate with Confidence through two platforms:

  • Pre-Sure: patient-specific replicas that enable surgical rehearsal before the procedure
  • Skill-Sure: high-fidelity surgical training solutions used by healthcare teams and medical device companies for training, demonstration, and education

Our models mimic realistic soft tissue textures and provide a hands-on operative experience designed to reduce the learning curve and improve outcomes.

Our mission: eliminate surgical errors and improve patient safety through superior training and rehearsal.

Your Role at Lazarus 3D

Lazarus 3D is hiring a Senior Sales Executive (Skill-Sure) to drive new business growth in 2026. This is a new-logo acquisition role focused primarily on medical device OEM partnerships, where we have proven traction selling custom and semi-custom surgical training models and programs.

You will own the front end of the sales process from prospecting through close, working directly with clinical education, training, marketing, and R&D stakeholders at OEMs, as well as select academic and hospital simulation leaders. You’ll help convert training needs into scoped solutions, pilots, and program rollouts, then partner internally to deliver a high-quality customer experience.

We are also launching an off-the-shelf catalog. Your role is not dependent on OTS success, but you may leverage catalog products where they accelerate adoption, support pilots, or simplify repeat orders.

Why This Role Is Exciting

  • Proven wedge with real buyers: You’ll sell into medical device OEM clinical education and training teams, with demonstrated demand for custom and semi-custom solutions.

  • High impact, high autonomy: You will directly shape how we win new OEM programs and build repeatable sales motion.

  • Mission that matters: Our products support safer surgery and better training, with a clear link to patient outcomes.

  • Upside with room to grow: Competitive OTE with accelerators, plus the chance to expand from pilots to larger program rollouts and long-term account value.

Sales Motion and Targets

  • Primary focus: 80% Medical Device OEM partnerships, 20% Academic/Hospital simulation and training programs
  • Primary sales motion: custom and semi-custom Skill-Sure training solutions, including pilots and program rollouts for OEM clinical education and training teams
  • Product mix:
    • Core: custom and semi-custom training models and solutions (primary quota driver)
    • Emerging: off-the-shelf catalog items, used to accelerate adoption, support pilots, and enable repeat orders when a standard configuration fits
  • Deal sizes: typical opportunities range from $15k–$50k for initial custom/semi-custom pilots to $100k+ for OEM program rollouts.
    • Academic/hospital training program purchases are typically smaller and may include standard configurations when appropriate.
  • Year 1 quota: $1.0M–$1.2M (ramped), with accelerators above plan
  • Sales cycle: typically 60–180 days for OEM solutions depending on scope and stakeholders. Shorter cycles may occur for repeatable configurations or smaller training purchases.

What Success Looks Like in the First 90 Days

Month 1: Immersion + Pipeline Foundation

  • Master the Skill-Sure catalog, pricing basics, ICPs, and core talk tracks
  • Take ownership of existing HubSpot leads and complete 20–30 discovery calls (majority in med device)

Month 2: Early Wins + Strategic Opens

  • Book 8–12 first meetings with Tier-1 OEM stakeholders (clinical education, training, marketing, sales leadership)
    Deliver 2–4 tailored proposals for pilots, bulk purchases, or OEM training programs
  • Establish a weekly pipeline cadence with Head of Sales (stages, next steps, close plans)

Month 3: Momentum + First Program Commitment

  • Close $150k–$250k cumulative by end of Month 3 (mix of transactional and mid-size deals)
