About the role
- Drive Technical Expansion: Act as the key technical partner for Account Managers and CSMs during renewal and upsell motions. You will lead technical deep-dives, run customized product demonstrations, and build "proof-of-value" solution architectures for our new multi-product offerings.
- Serve as the Go-To Product Expert: Maintain an expert-level understanding of the UpGuard platform, its architecture, API capabilities, and competitive differentiators. You will be the technical authority the CS team relies on to answer complex customer questions.
- Architect Complex Solutions: Design, scope, and validate deep technical solutions for our customers. This includes architecting robust API integrations to connect UpGuard with our customers' key systems (like GRC platforms, SIEMs, and other security tools).
- Manage Critical Technical Escalations: Act as an escalation point to "bridge the gap" between standard technical support and our CSMs. You will take ownership of high-priority technical issues that require deep, hands-on solutioning within a customer's environment.
- Enable the Team: Create and maintain a library of technical documentation, best-practice guides, integration playbooks, and demonstration scripts to empower the entire Customer Success team.
Requirements
- Experience: 3+ years in a customer-facing technical role such as a Solutions Consultant, Sales Consultant, Technical Account Manager, or Professional Services Consultant. Experience in a post-sales or expansion focused role is highly preferred.
- Cybersecurity/GRC Ecosystem: Deep understanding of the cybersecurity and GRC landscape (e.g., GRC platforms like ServiceNow; SIEMs like Splunk; or other security stack tools).
- Product Expert Mindset: A passion for becoming a deep subject matter expert on a complex software platform.
- Strong API Knowledge: Hands-on experience with REST APIs is essential. You must be comfortable guiding customers on implementation, reading documentation, and using tools like Postman to troubleshoot.
