- Partner with Product, Engineering, SEAD, Security, and Implementation teams to validate technical feasibility, assumptions, constraints, and solution scope.
- Clearly communicate technical capabilities, limitations, dependencies, and trade-offs to internal and external stakeholders.
- Assist in defining implementation approaches, integration timelines, and technical prerequisites to support effective post-sale handoff.
- Collaborate with Marketing and Revenue Operations to develop and maintain technical collateral, reference architectures, and technical enablement materials.
- Identify technical risks early in the sales cycle, including data quality, integration complexity, interoperability limitations, security posture, or deployment constraints, and recommend mitigation strategies.
