• Partner with an AI support agent to handle routine inquiries and escalate more complex issues when needed.
• Build and maintain reporting and dashboards that provide visibility into certification attainment, pass rates, and program progress across the partner ecosystem.
• Connect certification data with partner tiers, co-sell eligibility, and business outcomes to support internal reporting and decision-making.
• Document manual workflows and identify opportunities to improve operations, automation, and knowledge transfer.
• Work cross-functionally with partner, operations, engineering, RevOps, and IT teams to help resolve issues affecting candidate access, data flow, or platform performance.
