About the role

About Aimbient Help hospitals turn AI into better surgical outcomes - and build your career doing work that actually matters. Aimbient (formerly Surgical Safety Technologies) is a mission-driven medical technology company engineering the future of procedural care. Our Aimbient Suite is an enterprise ambient AI platform that captures, understands, and transforms procedural data into actionable intelligence to improve safety, quality, compliance, operational efficiency, and education across the procedural environment. Trusted by leading academic health systems across the U.S., Canada, and Europe, Aimbient is redefining how hospitals continuously improve care. Founded in 2015, Aimbient is a private, Series B medical technology company headquartered across New York and Toronto. We're backed by leading healthcare and technology investors, including Santé Ventures and U.S. Venture Partners, and we're at an exciting stage of growth as we scale our AI platform across health systems worldwide. This is a pipeline generation and qualification role for an SDR who knows how to research complex hospital systems, engage clinical and operational buyers, and create high-quality opportunities for enterprise healthcare sales. You’ll help bring Aimbient's clinical intelligence platform to leading health systems by identifying the right accounts, connecting with the right stakeholders, qualifying inbound demand, and creating the early momentum required for complex hospital sales cycles. You’ll be rewarded through a compensation model designed to value quality over activity alone: creating AE-accepted opportunities and maintaining pipeline hygiene. What You’ll OwnYou will own early-stage pipeline creation for Aimbient's health-system sales team through a combination of outbound target-account prospecting and inbound MQL qualification. You will identify, research, and prospect named accounts to find the relevant clinical, operational, financial, IT, and executive stakeholders involved in surgical safety, quality, performance improvement, perioperative operations, risk management, and technology evaluation. You will qualify marketing-generated leads as sales-accepted MQLs using standardized qualification criteria, reason codes, and service-level expectations. You will separate genuine commercial interest from low-fit or low-urgency engagement, and you will document your qualification decisions clearly in the CRM.You will maintain strong sales pipeline discipline, including CRM hygiene, account research notes, contact mapping, outreach sequencing, lead follow-up, meeting handoff quality, and proactive escalation of blockers or unclear account ownership. How You’ll Be Supported Aimbient has a proven sales motion that has landed enterprise-wide commitments from hospital systems with some of the highest standards worldwide. What we need is a disciplined pipeline generation function that can identify the right accounts, reach the right stakeholders, and create the early commercial momentum required for long-cycle enterprise healthcare sales. You will work closely with growth marketing, Clinical Partnerships leaders, sales-engaged executives, clinical experts, and cross-functional partners across product, implementation, customer success, legal, and finance. You will not be expected to close enterprise health-system deals yourself; your role is to create high-quality opportunities and set up the sales team to succeed.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
