The role contributes directly to customer satisfaction, opportunity conversion, revenue execution, customer retention, and sustainable business growth.

The FAS may be located in any country within Latin America, provided they have easy access to major airports and the ability to travel frequently to customer sites, training centers, events, and internal meetings.

The role will focus on Metabolomics, Proteomics, and Biopharmaceutical applications, supporting advanced scientific workflows involving mass spectrometry, liquid chromatography, protein and metabolite analysis, biopharmaceutical characterization, and related data analysis tools.

Main Responsibilities

• Work directly with customers to provide application support, technical assistance, training, method guidance, troubleshooting, and problem-solving related to Thermo Fisher Scientific solutions.

• Support pre-sales activities by participating in technical discussions, customer evaluations, product demonstrations, proof-of-concept activities, workflow assessments, and solution recommendations.

• Provide post-sales application support to ensure successful implementation, adoption, optimization, and effective use of Thermo Fisher Scientific products and solutions.

• Conduct customer training sessions, workshops, seminars, webinars, hands-on demonstrations, and field-based activities.

• Participate in congresses, scientific meetings, commercial events, and Thermo Fisher-sponsored activities, including as a speaker or technical representative when required.

• Offer technical and scientific support to internal and external customers through field visits, remote meetings, phone calls, and emails.

• Assist customers in resolving issues related to product use, workflow implementation, method standardization, application suitability, and post-sales support needs.

• Perform product, software, workflow, and solution demonstrations at company training centers, customer laboratories, partner facilities, or regional events.

• Collaborate closely with commercial teams, product scientists, service teams, channel partners, marketing, and regional leadership to support opportunity progression and customer success.

• Support internal initiatives and cross-functional projects that improve technical support capabilities, customer experience, commercial execution, and organizational efficiency.

• Support customers in metabolomics, proteomics, and biopharmaceutical workflows, including method guidance, technical troubleshooting, training, and demonstrations involving LCMS, Orbitrap-based mass spectrometry, protein and metabolite analysis, and specialized software tools.

Secondary Activities

• Provide market insights, customer feedback, competitive intelligence, and technical input to support sales and business development strategies.

• Identify new business opportunities by understanding customer needs, workflows, challenges, and future requirements.

• Represent Thermo Fisher Scientific at customer-facing events, congress booths, workshops, technical forums, and partner activities.
