• Lead the highest-complexity Field Service escalations globally (SEV1/SEV2), providing executive-level clarity and technical direction.

• Serve as the principal technical expert across architecture, optimization, mobile/offline behavior, integrations, and workflow design.

• Partner with Product & Engineering to shape roadmap priorities, drive quality improvements, and validate new capabilities.

• Increased global capability through training and advanced enablement programs.

Scope & Impact

This role supports all regions and the entire Field Service product footprint, partnering directly with Engineering, Product, Architects, and cross-cloud teams. It materially impacts customer satisfaction, renewal risk, and product quality at scale.

Leadership Expectations

• Influence without authority and serve as a trusted advisor for executives.

• Bring systems-level thinking to complex technical and organizational problems.

• Challenge assumptions, drive clarity, and modernize how Field Service support operates.
