In this role, you'll be the technical expert for Comet, working closely with sales, product, and engineering to help enterprise customers unlock the full potential of AI-augmented browsing at scale. Your mission is to deeply understand Comet's capabilities, build compelling technical demos, and help customers successfully adopt and integrate Comet into their workflows.

Customer feedback & product partnership: Gather and synthesize technical feedback from customers and prospects, act as the voice of the customer in product discussions to shape Comet's roadmap, and maintain deep knowledge of Comet's architecture and AI features.
Tools & enablement: Build and maintain internal tools and automations that make sales and support teams more effective, and contribute to help center content and internal documentation focused on Comet's technical setup and best practices.
Performance tracking: Track key metrics like response times, resolution rates, and customer satisfaction. Use both quantitative and qualitative data to iteratively guide improvements.
Scaling: Ensure that internal systems and teams can scale as our user base grows.
