Responsibilities

- Translate a technical product. Partner with product marketing and SEs to help reps clearly articulate our AI-native MDR value to both technical and executive buyers
- Own enablement content. Create and maintain playbooks, talk tracks, certification paths, and just-in-time resources in our enablement and LMS tools
- Drive methodology adoption. Embed a consistent sales framework (e.g., MEDDICC / Command of the Message) across the team and reinforce it through training and inspection
