• Business Development Support: Serve as a customer to Sales Enablement and Data Science in the building of quality client-facing materials such as partnership decks, one-sheets, case studies, and presentations to aid in business development efforts.
• Strategic Planning: Formulate strategies for a portfolio of developers to maximize value of activating use of Discord's tools, leveraging your games industry experience in live operations and monetization.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with internal teams and leaders to inform roadmap decisions, implement improvements or adjustments, and ensure successful customer partnerships.
  

Requirements
