• Identify and surface early adoption challenges, risks, or gaps to CSMs and the Customer Success Escalation Lead for proactive resolution.
• Capture customer feedback during onboarding and early adoption and share insights with internal teams to improve processes and customer experience.

• Support training efforts for Customer Success Managers related to onboarding workflows, product updates, and early-stage customer challenges.
