Account Executive, native Mandarin speaker

We pull medical technology from the future to solve human health.

 

Scarlet is authorised to assess and certify medical devices. We combine clinical, technical and regulatory expertise with AI agents and software so rigorous certification can keep pace with product development at the world’s most ambitious technology companies, without lowering the safety bar.

Our customers have cut a year or more from their certification timelines for new AI-enabled medical devices and shortened product-update cycles from months to weeks. You’ll join a team building the infrastructure that makes these outcomes repeatable at scale.

 

About the role

As an Account Executive at Scarlet you will own deals from discovery to close by building relationships with regulatory and operations leaders. You will become a regulatory expert capable of meeting the complex needs of our customers. Your work will help ambitious medical technology companies bring safe products to patients sooner and drive Scarlet’s growth.

This is a London-based role with a global reach requiring native-level Mandarin and excellent English. You will initially sell to English-speaking customers, including customers outside China, while helping us prepare for future demand from Chinese-speaking customers. As that demand grows, your focus may increasingly include Chinese-speaking accounts. You will remain based in London, including if China-related work becomes your full-time focus.

 

What you'll be working on

The companies you'll be selling to are doing some of the most interesting work in healthcare right now. A few of the customers you'll be pointing prospects towards:

• Floy certified three AI radiology devices under EU MDR, completed an ISO transfer and a scope extension, all in 16 weeks

• Skin Analytics brought a Class III AI dermatology device to the European market

• Augmedit certified multiple augmented reality neurosurgery devices

• Flok Health went from submission to EU MDR certification of an AI physiotherapy device in 14 weeks

• Lucida Medical transferred an AI radiology device to Scarlet in seven weeks and started shipping model updates immediately

• Feebris got an AI photoplethysmography device certified in time to support critical NHS priorities

You can read all of these at scarlet.cc/customer-stories. Your job is to find the next Floy or Skin Analytics and show them there's a faster way.
