Define ownership of the customer, data, support, implementation and renewals.\nGo-to-market execution. Build partner-specific value propositions, account maps, sales plays, launch plans, campaigns and pursuit motions. Equip both field organizations to identify, qualify and advance joint opportunities.\nCloud and Federal readiness. Coordinate marketplace listings, partner program requirements, security reviews and relevant FedRAMP, DoD, CUI, export-control and regulated-workload considerations.\nLifecycle and governance. Lead partners from identification and business-case approval through contracting, integration, launch, enablement, growth and performance review. Escalate delivery, support, security and roadmap risk early.\nPerformance management. Maintain scorecards covering integration milestones, solution adoption, enabled sellers, marketplace activity, sourced and influenced pipeline, bookings/ARR, customer outcomes and return on engineering and GTM investment.\nIn your first 12 months you will:\nFocus the portfolio. Create a fact-based partner thesis and executive-backed plans for the highest-value technology relationships.\nDefine joint solutions. Establish customer problems, reference workflows, integration patterns, product ownership, data boundaries and commercial models for priority partnerships.\nLaunch routes to market.
