VP, Business Development; Remote

Star Fish Medical is seeking a Vice President, Business Development, to sell outsourced medical device design, development, and manufacturing services to Med Tech companies within a defined North American territory.

This role is designed for a senior business development leader with direct experience selling engineering consulting or product development services, not finished medical devices or platforms. You will work with venture‑backed start‑ups and global medical device companies that require an external development partner to move from concept through commercialization.

As a consultative seller, you will lead complex, scope‑based sales cycles, qualify ambiguous technical opportunities, and collaborate closely with Star Fish’s engineering and program teams to shape well‑defined development programs that are ready to launch.

Success in this position depends on the ability to sell custom, project‑based development services in a consulting environment. This is not a product sales role.
