• Technical Foundation & Analytical Execution: Fluent with AI and LLM technology to deliver production-grade solutions with a focus on outcomes, accuracy and efficiency.
• Exceptional Communication & Influence: Outstanding interpersonal and persuasive presentation skills, with the ability to build strong cross-functional relationships, align pre- and post-sales teams, and clearly translate technical concepts for senior stakeholders.

• Enterprise Architecture & Security: Deep understanding of SaaS platforms (Salesforce, Zendesk, etc.), data pipelines, and enterprise ticketing systems, combined with a strong grasp of associated security and compliance considerations.
