• Redefine how Field Engineering aligns with Product & Engineering, Customer Success, and FDE teams in an AI-first market — where the pace of innovation demands a level of cross-functional coordination that traditional GTM models weren't built to handle.

• Extend an already tight partnership with nCino’s Product and Engineering teams, ensuring the roadmap and innovation agenda are directly informed by what Field Engineering sees and hears in the field.
