  • Partner with Product, Engineering, Field Engineering Leadership, and SMEs to incorporate real-world use cases, product updates, and best practices into training materials.
  • Oversee the development of technical enablement content, POC templates, demos, and hands-on workspaces, ensuring accuracy, engagement, and practical application.
  • Lead technical workshops, enablement sessions, and hands-on problem-solving exercises to reinforce deep product knowledge and confidence in the field.
  • Standardize methodologies for scoping, structuring, and delivering new product enablement materials to drive consistency, scalability, and impact.
