You will drive technical qualification by identifying the best opportunities and running structured evaluations, partner with Account Executives on strategy for complex cycles and enterprise deals, and ensure smooth handoffs to post‑sales teams through clear knowledge transfer. You’ll also stay sharp on accounting practices, industry trends, and the competitive landscape. Location: NYC, Flatiron office. In‑person team. What you’ll bring:
