* Experience in cybersecurity, SaaS, networking, or OT environments (smart buildings background highly valued)
* Ability to deliver clear, engaging presentations to both technical and non-technical audiences
* Experience working with channel partners or technology ecosystems
* Excellent communication, problem-solving, and relationship-building skills
* Comfortable working independently in a fast-moving environment

* Delivering regular partner training sessions
* Achieving high partner satisfaction scores (≥8/10)
* Driving growth in platform adoption across partner accounts
* Identifying opportunities through marketplace partners for the sales team
* Strong conversion rates from demos to opportunities
