About the role
- In the near term, this means rolling up your sleeves with our first cohort of priority clients - getting on the phone, working through IT and security blockers, and driving direct activation.
- You'll be the connective tissue between Product/Engineering (what's shipping) and CS/Commercial (what clients need to hear and do).
- This role will report to our VP of Engineering, but will work very collaborating across different teams.
Responsibilities
- Drive direct activation with priority clients
- Partner hands-on with our first cohort of clients to get new features turned on - making the calls, running the meetings, working through IT/security/legal blockers
- Build trusting relationships with both senior sponsors (CHROs, SVPs) and day-to-day operators (L&D leads, program managers) that translate into faster activation
- Build and own the deployment system
- Design and run a repeatable process for launching new product capabilities across our enterprise base
- Develop launch playbooks, internal enablement, and customer talk tracks that scale beyond you
- Stand up a beta cohort to quickly validate features with the right mix of clients
- Track and drive adoption at scale
- Use adoption data to drive both client conversations and internal roadmap influence
Requirements
- 5+ years in customer-facing roles in B2B SaaS - implementation, customer success, solutions engineering, or a similar function where you've owned client outcomes end-to-end
- Track record of personally driving feature adoption or product activation at enterprise clients - meaning you've moved the number, not just managed the process
- Cross-functional influence without authority: you are able to get engineering, CS, and product moving in the same direction proactively and effectively
- Experience running a structured beta program or pilot at an enterprise SaaS company
- Experience navigating enterprise IT and security review cycles (SSO, GDPR, data agreements, Teams/Calendar integrations)
- Familiarity with HR tech, talent platforms, or AI-powered enterprise products

- Work directly with cutting-edge AI models and next-generation platforms
- Establish yourself as a recognized leader among peers in shaping how AI transforms work at a global scale
