-         Collaborate closely with product management, engineering, and marketing to align customer requirements with roadmap priorities

-         Translate complex technical value propositions into clear business outcomes

-         Lead commercial negotiations, pricing strategies, and contract structures tailored to hyperscaler buying models

-         Forecast pipeline and revenue accurately, managing long sales cycles and multi-year opportunities

-         Develop a portfolio of ecosystem partners that will accelerate broad adoption of Xsight’s product portfolio

-         Profile market segments and customers creating strategic account plans
