Orchestrate technical partner engagement on joint opportunities, defining integration points, governance handoffs, and joint solution architectures. Own customer specification documents covering requirements, success criteria, assumptions, risks, architecture decisions, and future roadmap. Iterate as engagements evolve. Partner with Delivery, Data Engineering, and Customer Solutions on schema, workload testing, pilot execution, and system sizing for pilot and production.
