• Own customer's technical journey (onboarding, escalation, solution guidance) when needed to drive product adoption by driving success plans that allow the customer to deliver on the Mission.
• Find opportunities for expansion, at which point the account team takes over to expand the subscription, aiming to grow annual recurring revenue (ARR).
• Continuously review and assess customer consumption of Elastic solutions, proactively suggesting upgrades and enhancements that increase value and drive further consumption.
• Create and share mechanisms and assets that will help us accelerate product adoption.

Qualifications

• Experienced with one or more Elastic solutions (Observability, Security, Enterprise Search) or the Elastic stack (Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana) and how to align them with business objectives.
• Candidates should live in the Washington DC area to meet with customers often. However, those living in the eastern region or Texas may also be considered.

• Excellent communication and presentation skills.
• Strong interpersonal skills, with the ability to establish relationships with customers and team members.
• Proven problem-solving skills, with a track record of delivering innovative solutions.
