- Customer Enablement & Value Measurement: Deliver advanced training to build internal program ownership within customer teams and implement frameworks to measure the operational value and utilization of the robot fleet.
- Product & Engineering Collaboration: Systematize customer feedback and field data to push critical insights into the internal development cycle, serving as a direct channel to influence the Boston Dynamics product roadmap.
- Internal Leadership & Mentorship: Guide other FAEs and integration teams, identifying patterns in field data to drive long-term optimizations and continuous improvement of the global integration roadmap.

- Resilience & Autonomy: Comfort navigating the ambiguity of early-stage product deployments and the ability to build structure where none exists.
- Go-To-Market Instinct: The ability to recognize how a successful technical integration can unlock broader strategic impact and account expansion.
- Industrial Domain Expertise: Familiarity with specialized workflows in sectors like large-scale manufacturing and logistics.
- Corporate Headquarters: This is an in-person role based out of our headquarters in Waltham, MA, offering direct access to our engineering labs and cross-functional teams.
