• Technical Sales Enablement: Build and maintain reusable technical sales resources, including demonstration assets, reference architectures, videos, FAQs, templates, and response materials.

• Process Development: Establish and refine the technical sales function, creating repeatable practices that improve sales cycle times, win rates, documentation quality, and implementation readiness.
