Across every interaction, you'll translate complex concepts for audiences ranging from SREs and developers to business stakeholders, confidently navigating functional and competitive objections along the way.

Prepare and deliver custom demos tailored to unique customer pain points, partnering with automation engineers on complex scenarios.
Conduct lightweight Operations Cloud Lifecycle Assessments (OCLA) with customers.
Effectively converse and persuade at a technical level with practitioners (SREs, developers, MIMs), and handle functional and competitive objections.
Articulate PagerDuty's differentiators relative to a customer's current and future state, incorporating them into POVs and custom demonstrations.
Break down complex technical concepts and explain them clearly to audiences ranging from DevOps engineers to business stakeholders.
Maintain accurate notes and feedback in the CRM regarding customer input, both wins and losses.
