- Partner closely with Product, Engineering, and PMM to ensure technical field teams are fully enabled on new product capabilities, roadmap themes, observability concepts, and customer use cases.
- Drive global alignment and consistency for all technical enablement initiatives, including product releases, major launches, and partner-led technical programs.
- Define, track, and report on enablement effectiveness using field productivity metrics, skill assessments, and stakeholder feedback.
- Maintain strong, ongoing relationships with field engineering leadership and cross-functional technical stakeholders to ensure enablement priorities stay aligned to business needs.
What you’ll bring to the role:
- 5+ years of experience in technical enablement, field readiness, or technical program management within a SaaS or developer-tools environment.
- Background in a customer-facing technical role (SA, TCSM, CA, or similar) with the ability to translate complex technical concepts into digestible, engaging learning experiences.
- Demonstrated ability to build structured, scalable enablement programs that serve multiple technical personas across the customer journey.
- Strong cross-functional stakeholder management experience, with a track record of aligning Engineering, Product, PMM, and Revenue teams around shared technical readiness goals.
- Proven experience operating autonomously and owning program strategy, content creation, and outcomes end-to-end.
- Familiarity with observability, cloud-native architectures, and technologies such as OpenTelemetry, tracing, metrics, and logs.
- Proficiency with learning delivery tooling (LMS, CMS) and comfort facilitating technical trainings for diverse learner audiences.
- Ability to measure and communicate the impact of enablement programs through data, insights, and field performance outcomes.
