Experience engaging confidently with technical teams (ML engineers, data scientists, software engineers) as well as executive and business stakeholders
Strong project management skills, with the ability to run multiple concurrent deployments, coordinate internal resources, and keep customers on track
Commercially aware, with experience contributing to renewals, identifying expansion signals, and partnering with Sales on account growth
Familiarity with CRM and CS tooling (e.g. HubSpot, Salesforce, Gainsight, or similar)

Bonus: Exposure to AI, ML, data infrastructure, or developer tools
