  • A proven track record of delivering enterprise software or AI solutions to external clients while managing multiple projects simultaneously.
  • Experience working directly with non-technical executives and technical staff, including developers and IT operations personnel.
  • Familiarity with modern web technologies, including REST APIs, cloud infrastructure, and databases, sufficient to read code, debug basic issues, and write simple scripts in Python, JavaScript, or a similar language.
  • Comfort with cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud Platform at a conceptual level, including deploying services, configuring basic networking, and monitoring logs.
  • Ability to triage technical issues by identifying configuration, data, or code problems and routing them appropriately.
  • Communication and presentation skills to explain technical concepts to business leaders and translate business needs into technical requirements.
  • Empathy and active listening to understand customer pain points.

  • Work with client teams to understand business goals, technical constraints, and success criteria, then define the optimal deployment approach.
  • Coordinate with internal engineering and product teams to deliver custom integrations involving APIs, data pipelines, and enterprise platforms; review, test, and troubleshoot integrations and scripts rather than writing production-grade code from scratch.
  • Conduct technical workshops and training sessions for client administrators and end users to support self-sufficiency.
  • Serve as the first point of contact for technical and operational issues during deployment; escalate complex bugs to engineering and communicate clearly with customers.
  • Synthesize customer feedback and deployment patterns into actionable product improvement suggestions and influence the product roadmap.

Desired Qualifications

  • Understanding of AI and machine learning, including large language models, agents, and retrieval-augmented generation.
  • Experience with customer success platforms such as Gainsight, Totango, or Salesforce, or ticketing systems such as Jira or Zendesk.
