• Deep knowledge of the decisioning industry across banking, insurance, telco, payments, and emerging verticals, with a strong grasp of client business problems and how real-time decisioning capabilities address them. 

• Comfortable working alongside engineering teams on streaming and event-driven architectures (e.g., Kafka, Pulsar, or similar pub/sub systems), including batch processing, real-time transaction processing, and low-latency, high-throughput system design. 

• Understanding of decision logic execution within streaming pipelines, including rules engines, machine learning models, and mathematical optimization on live transaction data, and the ability to translate these capabilities into compelling customer value propositions. 

• Demonstrated ability to identify, size, and prioritize market opportunities across the platform's capabilities. 

• Experience working in complex, matrixed, and globally distributed organizations, with a track record of driving decisions to consensus and influencing cross-functional teams. 

• Executive-level communication skills, with the ability to translate complex platform and technical concepts into clear, compelling narratives for diverse audiences.

• Experience in financial services, fintech, or other regulated industries preferred, particularly in fraud, payments, or transaction-processing environments.
