Troubleshoot issues, provide root-cause analysis, and ensure production readiness. Deliver on-site/remote training sessions and create onboarding materials.
- Customer Success: Serve as a trusted advisor who translates customer goals into concrete deployment plans. Track usage metrics and adoption milestones to drive renewals and expansion.
- Product Feedback Loop: Consolidate field feedback into clear feature requests and bug reports. Collaborate with product and engineering to prioritize roadmap items.
