  • Develop and disseminate knowledge resources such as code samples, tutorials, whitepapers, and technical articles for the developer and shipping community, with a focus on promoting best practices.
  • Analyze current processes, identify bottlenecks/pain points, and evaluate opportunities to improve end-user experiences, reduce time/costs to integrate, improve CX, and accelerate growth.
  • Stay abreast of emerging technologies and industry trends to integrate into functional architectures, driving continuous improvement and innovation.
  • Up to 10% travel.
