database software industry, particularly with open source database technologies.\n\nFamiliarity with cloud infrastructure and DBaaS offerings, including AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud.\n\nExperience with enterprise support, professional services, or managed services delivery models.\n\nExperience developing or scaling customer engagement programs, improving operational processes, or establishing team performance metrics.\n\nFamiliarity with Customer Success platforms and CRM tools such as Salesforce and Gainsight.\n\nExperience working in a global, remote-first
