• Facilitate leadership business reviews that connect Starlink performance to customer results
• Forecast retention and revenue for the book so leadership can plan against a real number

• 5+ years supporting customers on a technical product or service

PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:

• Experience supporting customers with in-motion, fleet, field, or similarly operationally complex deployments
• Experience with agriculture, rail, trucking, OEM, heavy machinery, or other land-mobile / vehicle connectivity programs
• A track record of growing revenue inside existing accounts, such as expansion, additional vehicles or sites, or new ways the customer uses the product
• Experience running several complex workstreams at the same time and delivering them on tight timelines
