As a Principal Customer Success Solution Architect I maintained the responsibilities of the Sr. Customer Success Solution Architect and took on the following additional responsibilities:- Gained responsibility for the technical success of >10 accounts concurrently with most over 1M/yr ARR.- Responsible for providing continuity through two direct management changes in less than 1 year.- Developing a plan for continuous contact with all customers in an account portfolio on a biweekly basis in a sustainable manner to better monitor customer opportunities and prevent churn.- Responsible to aid all CSM staff and Presales staff in challenging solutions through technical and strategic support.Major Accomplishments:- Architecture Talk Series - curated a set of >20 talks on Protegrity solution architecture covering solutioning best practices and design patterns with our products. Customer feedback was strongly supportive once they started attending resulting in the desired continuous contact and Trusted Advisor Status.- ML Optimization through K8s sidecar - developed a MVP demonstrating how a secure sidecar could be adopted to address detokenization in a cloud ML workflow environment. Through coaching and mentoring the healthcare IT team I supported their development of an MVP which resulted in 3 or more order magnitude performance improvements enabling one of the largest expansion upsells in the history of Protegrity.- Churn Prevention at Major Entertainment Provider - a major entertainment provider was convinced by the staff at Snowflake that they no longer needed Protegrity for their sensitive financial data as it would be protected by dynamic data masking. By educating our internal champion from Snowflakes own documentation I was able to show the separation of duties risk as well as data at rest risk the organization would be taking on by eliminating Protegrity. This effort resulted in a reversal of stance and discussion of new use cases on Protegrity.

As a Sr. Customer Success Solution Architect I retained the responsibilities of a Customer Success Solution Consultant but also had the following additional responsibilities:- Responsibility for relationship with 5 accounts with worth all over 1M in ARR. - Held and managed product roadmap and QBR meetings.- Advocated for Client Request for Enhancement(RFE)- Positioned for tactical support to address Java, Python and DSG solutioning/coding issues.- Responsibility for developing Cloud Accelerators. (Maintained Sample Code)Major Accomplishments:- Secure Snowflake Data Sharing - A major healthcare company needed to replace its old private/public key sftp data transfers with Snowflake data sharing transfers. Working with the client I developed a data sharing architecture that secured sensitive data at the field level, managed separation of duties through distinct token domains, provided chain of custody and responsibility tracking for sensitive data resulting in the ability to identify what entity is responsible in the event of a breach.- Automated Blue/Green Deployment - A major financial institution had issues with adoption of our container based products as automating blue/green deployments was not within their skill sets. I developed a script based framework deployable to their CI/CD environment resulting in the adoption of our container products on a wide scale in multiple Geos.
