As a leader within the Early Access and Adoption team, you will work in a highly collaborative, cross-functional environment both internally within product development and externally with early access customers projects to assess product adoption impacts, verify target use cases, and provide early feedback as domain experts. You will also become an expert with prioritized capabilities and drive harvesting and creation of learnings and applicable generalized content.
