A record of converting technical proofs of value into production commitments in enterprise B2B software.
Strong knowledge of data warehouses, ETL/ELT pipelines, data governance, and enterprise data architectures.
Experience with enterprise discovery, technical demos, security reviews, procurement, and multi-stakeholder buying processes.
Working knowledge of production LLM and agentic systems, including their capabilities and limitations.
Ability to use Python or SQL for customer-facing prototyping and to turn technical findings into structured engineering feedback.
Willingness to travel regularly to customer sites across the UK and Europe.
