  • Proven track record of actively refining and optimizing onboarding and customer success pipelines. Provide clear examples of how you've driven process improvements to increase adoption and reduce time‑to‑value.
  • Skilled persuasive communicator who can navigate difficult conversations. Provide strategic account guidance, proactively identifying expansion opportunities and ensuring alignment with customer goals.
  • Skilled at cultivating deep customer partnerships. Proactively solicit and synthesize feedback to identify underlying risks and opportunities, and work cross‑functionally to ensure that feedback is actioned.
