- Identify companies that are strong candidates for early Proof-of-Concept and design partnerships
- Qualify prospects based on technical maturity, urgency, and feedback potential

- Partner directly with the CEO and leadership team to move high-value prospects forward
- Help prep conversations, demos, and follow-ups for senior-level meetings
