• You will lead technical presentations, demonstrations, workshops, architecture design sessions, proof of concepts, and pilots to showcase Microsoft's capabilities and how they can make businesses more successful.
• You will identify and address technical, competitive, and security blockers to accelerate security sales and customer usage.
• You will own the technical decision-making process for sales opportunities and usage scenarios, tailoring your message, engaging with customers, and guiding their decisions.
• You will work with partners and internal teams, using core tools to extend your reach and satisfy customer needs.
• You will coordinate complex solutions with internal and external partners for multiple Microsoft products and services.
• You will diagnose and resolve technical, architectural, and competitive blockers for sales and usage opportunities.
• You will share practical knowledge with partners to drive sale, deployment, and adoption of Microsoft solutions.
• You will provide feedback to sales, marketing, and engineering to shape products, marketing strategies, and customer-centric ideas.
• You will continuously enhance your technical, sales, and professional skills through participation in internal communities, events, blogs, white papers, training, and articles.
