API Customer Experience Professionals are customer obsessed in defining and delivering the strategy and vision required for digital experiences to stay ahead of constantly evolving economic, competitive, technological, and customer needs. This role sits at the intersection of product teams, platform standards, and external partners. You will help federated product teams successfully publish APIs while ensuring consistent security, reliability, and operational readiness – balancing speed with quality at scale, while evaluating emerging AI capabilities to automate tasks. You are an advocate for partner experience, launch readiness, and long-term success, making sure APIs are not only built quickly but are safe, supportable, and easy for partners to adopt and use. As an API Customer Experience Professional, you will:

Enable API Launch Readiness and Quality

• Streamline and automate launch requirements to reduce time to market

Champion a Consistent Partner Experience

• Ensure partners experience one cohesive process, even when APIs come from different teams or business lines
• Identify gaps or inconsistencies in documentation, onboarding, support, or operational handoffs that impact partners

Reduce Risk Through Standards and Governance

• Help enforce consistent standards and controls that reduce enterprise, regulatory, and partner risk
• Ensure APIs remain compliant throughout their lifecycle—not just at launch
• Support escalation paths, and ongoing health monitoring for partner-facing APIs

Support Scale and Time to Market

• Leverage shared services, patterns, and governance models to help teams move faster without sacrificing quality
• Help the organization scale partner growth while keeping operational and compliance risk manageable

Act as a Cross-Functional Connector

• Collaborate closely with product managers, engineering teams, security, legal, operations, and partner support
• Translate enterprise expectations into practical guidance that teams can act on
• Represent partner needs in internal discussions and planning efforts
