This isn’t just another project coordination role—it’s a chance to drive real business value by ensuring that our Proof of Value (POV) process is set up for success and delivers results that matter. They will act as the central point of contact and coordination for internal stakeholders (SEs, AEs, DA, CS, Product), providing updates related to the technical issues raised during the POV process.

- Drive POV Dashboard Analytics & Reporting. Work with the analytics team to understand POV bug and FR trending so Product can focus on the greatest needs.
