JOB SUMMARY - To perform this job successfully, an individual must be able to perform each essential duty satisfactorily.

Grow sales and establish market share for an assigned territory by promoting, selling and servicing Vascular Interventions and Endovascular products. Build business by aggressively developing new accounts and driving therapy adoption of a new and novel laser atherectomy technology.

Differentiated from other legacy medical devices, the new Auryon-laser technology is the only system capable of delivering short, high-powered pulsed-laser energy in a 355nm wavelength without compromising the integrity of its fiber optic cables during atherectomy procedures. The technology addresses the risk of perforation through tissue selectively, addresses the risk of embolization to the patient through the availability of aspiration, and is indicated to provide treatment for In Stent Restenosis (ISR), which is the gradual re-narrowing of the artery after a blockage has been previously treated with a stent.

Additionally, the Auryon-laser advances patient treatment options and care by treating a variety of PAD lesion types both above and below-the-knee. The technology is a safe, fast, and effective system that clinical studies have shown to be effective in treating lesions ranging from soft plaque to severely calcified.
