• RFPs & Technical Validation: Own responses to technical requirements, security reviews, and RFP/RFI processes.
• Content & Enablement: Develop reusable demo assets, technical content, and best practices to scale the sales process.
• Industry Representation: Support webinars, events, and technical sessions to evangelize ControlMonkey’s solution.
• Post-Sales: Support QBR/EBRs and ensure customer adoption and satisfaction.

• Ability to translate complex technical concepts into clear business value for diverse audiences.

• Strong communication and presentation skills, including live demos and whiteboarding sessions.
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced startup environment with evolving product and processes.
