Partner cross-functionally

• Work with Sales, Marketing, Engineering, and Operations to support product launches, develop sales enablement tools, and ensure successful execution.

Engage with customers and the field

• Gather insights through sales teams, customer interactions, and market data to inform product direction.

Contribute to M&A and portfolio expansion

• Support due diligence and portfolio assessments for potential acquisitions and adjacent market opportunities.
