• Technical Relationship Management & Portfolio Health (20%).
• Serve as the primary, hands-on point of contact for live enterprise partners (e.g., creator platforms, marketplaces, gig-economy firms).
• Act as a first-line technical resource to triage API batch failures, webhook errors, and settlement discrepancies directly with partner engineering teams before escalating to internal engineering.
• Monitor transaction volume metrics continuously to identify usage anomalies, operational risks, or drop-offs ahead of formal account reviews.
• Function Building & Operational Excellence (10%).
• Design, test, and implement foundational post-sale processes, including client onboarding playbooks, account health scoring models, QBR formats, and internal escalation paths.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with Global Wise Platform teams across Technical Support, Compliance, Pricing, and Product to optimize client experience and workflow efficiency.
