  • Diagnose and resolve technical issues in live deployments, and be honest with customers about what the platform can and cannot do
  • Partner with Deployment Strategists on the commercial relationship, giving them the technical grounding that wins and grows accounts
  • Feed what you learn in the field back into the product, shaping the roadmap so every future customer inherits it
