Skills

About the Role

You will be the customer's primary point of contact from kickoff through hypercare, ensuring new and existing customers are correctly deployed in the most time-efficient manner. You will fully absorb handovers from Solution Engineers, lead project kickoffs, and own the Go Live date as a firm commitment. You will manage end-to-end technical implementation including REST API integration, Mobile SDK deployments, identity flow configuration, and third-party system connections, while sharing best practices and challenging deviations from them. You will act as the primary escalation point for technical and product issues, liaise with Product and Technical teams, and ensure implementation strictly reflects contracted scope. During hypercare, you will track KPIs and hand off to the Customer Success Manager only once stability is reached. You will also build strong relationships with technical decision-makers, support pre-sale activities, and prepare educational content for clients.
