Hire, ramp, and develop a team of Solutions Consultants in SF, and own their coaching, performance, and career growth Stay close to the region's most strategic deals: shape the technical strategy, join key discovery calls, demos, POCs, and executive readouts, and step in directly when the deal calls for it
