  • Lead reactive adoption initiatives to de-risk churn or contraction and position accounts for future growth
• Deliver Technical Excellence
  • Advise on architecture, design, implementation, troubleshooting, and best practices in dbt Cloud environments
  • Build solution MVPs and guide long-term technical strategies tailored to customer needs
  • Engage on multiple projects simultaneously with clear scoping, start and end dates, and outcome tracking
• Collaborate Across Teams
  • Partner closely with Customer Solutions Architects (CSAs), Sales, Solutions Architects, Training, and Support
  • Provide feedback to Product and Engineering to improve customer experience and prioritize technical needs
  • Champion customer success through thoughtful, transparent communication and cross-functional collaboration
• Advance Best Practices and Team Impact
  • Help build out and refine this evolving function alongside the broader RA organization
  • Track and manage capacity and engagement effectiveness similarly to other RA-led initiatives

• Strong proficiency in SQL; working knowledge of Python in analytics contexts preferred
• Comfort leading technical project delivery - managing scope, timelines, and stakeholder expectations across multiple simultaneous engagements
• Clear, concise communication skills for both technical and executive audiences
• A collaborative mindset - thriving in a remote, transparent, and highly cross-functional organization
• Willingness to travel 2-4 times per year for company-wide events

What Will Make You Stand Out

• dbt Analytics Engineering Certification
• Ability to influence technical direction and build consensus across internal and customer teams
• Experience with traditional enterprise ETL tools (e.g., Informatica, Datastage, Talend) and how they relate to modern data workflows
• Familiarity with strategic sales or renewal processes, including proactive and reactive adoption efforts
