• Create technical presentations, proposals, and SOWs tailored to SMB and Mid-Market client needs.
• Collaborate with CSMs and Engineering to deliver proof-of-concept deployments and validate client solutions.
• Support BAEs CSMs with training on Azure/SharePoint opportunities to strengthen presales capability across the team.
• Remain current on emerging technologies and recommend adoption strategies aligned with In-Telecom's standard stack.
