  • You will have the first responsibility to investigate and troubleshoot issues using our tools and provide the necessary fixes on the partner side, if possible, and if needed, escalate issues to the engineering team with your initial detailed analysis, as well as providing concrete and actionable feedback.
  • You will work closely with Technical Program Management (TPM), Engineering, and Product teams to work on system improvements, feature requests, and inform about emerging customer needs
