• Become a product expert, maintaining a deep understanding of the features, functionality, and applications of the product portfolio
• Manage multiple opportunities simultaneously, working with internal teams to ensure successful sale and implementation 
• Support the entire sales cycle from prospecting to closing deals, ensuring that all technical aspects of the sale are handled smoothly

Must have:
