О компании

Platform Partnerships builds and grows the relationships that extend products through the world’s most important technology platforms. The team works across Product, Engineering, Research, Go-to-Market, Legal, Finance, Marketing, Policy, and Operations to turn partner opportunities into durable product experiences and business outcomes.

Bring strong product and technical judgment and can work credibly with Product and Engineering on APIs, integrations, developer platforms, data flows, agents, or emerging products.
Have structured and negotiated complex commercial and technical agreements and can balance near-term outcomes with long-term strategic value.
Use data and sound judgment to define success, evaluate tradeoffs, and prioritize among competing opportunities.
Communicate clearly with executive, technical, commercial, and operational audiences, including through high-quality written plans and decision materials.
