Impact You Will Have

• Engage with Solutions Architects to understand the full use case demand plan for prioritized customers
• Lead the post-technical-win account strategy and execution plan for the majority of Databricks use cases within our most strategic accounts
• Be the accountable technical leader for specific use cases and customers across multiple selling teams and internal stakeholders, creating certainty from uncertainty and driving onboarding, enablement, go-live, and healthy consumption of the workloads the customer has chosen to run on Databricks
• Be the first contact for any technical issues or questions related to production/go live status of agreed upon use cases within an account, often spanning multiple use cases within the largest and most complex organizations
• Leverage Shared Services, User Education, Onboarding/Technical Services, and Support resources, and escalate to subject matter experts when work falls beyond your scope or expertise
• Create, own, and execute a point of view on how key use cases can be accelerated into production, coordinating with Professional Services (PS) resources on the delivery of PS Engagement proposals
• Partner with Databricks Product and Engineering teams on new product innovations, private previews, and upgrades
• Develop an execution plan spanning all customer-facing technical roles and teams across the following work streams: main use cases moving from ‘win’ to production, enablement / user growth plan, product adoption (strategy and activities to increase adoption of Databricks’ Lakehouse vision), organic needs for current investment (e.g. cloud cost control, tuning & optimization), executive and operational governance
• Provide internal and external updates to your Technical GM — KPI reporting on usage and customer health, covering investment status, key risks, product adoption, and use case progression
