As a key member of the Product team, this role will drive the adoption and successful integration of Anchorage Digital's platform by our API clients and partners. You will be responsible for building Anchorage’s Solutions Engineering & Developer Experience practice as we expand our API suite to cover new and existing products. Beyond direct client engagement, your contributions will be integral to how Product operates, ensuring high API deployment quality and enhancing the overall Product Experience by serving as the internal advocate for our clients.

This role blends technical expertise, client communication, and a deep understanding of customer use cases to ensure clients quickly maximize the value of our platform. You will contribute to the growth and scalability of Anchorage's businesses. This involves creating elegant implementation experiences from pre-sales through post-go-live, which will streamline customer implementations. You will also influence API product strategy by gathering client feedback and identifying opportunities to both enhance and add to our offerings, enabling more automated and scalable use cases for our clients. This role is crucial for fostering strong client relationships, driving product adoption, and ultimately contributing to Anchorage Digital's continued growth.

Your primary mandate is to streamline the path from prospect to live client ensuring clients can integrate quickly, autonomously, and successfully.

Lead Technical Implementation Design: You will partner with your Customer Solutions & Enablement colleagues to provide technical testing and implementation guidance from pre-sales through post-go-live. For both direct and third-party integrations you will help manage the integration journey to ensure clients hit their go-live targets with the "best implementation" for their specific goals.

Build the "Developer Experience" (DevEx): You will refine our developer portal to serve as an education and validation tool that incentivizes self-service. This includes authoring high-quality documentation, tutorials, and scripts to simplify complex concepts. You will create Postman collections that reflect the implementation patterns and API workflows most commonly used by our clients, drawing on your understanding of their needs.

Smart Triage & Support: Tool the team for quicker diagnosis and response to technical implementation issues. You will drive initiatives to shorten resolution time by documenting common issues and implementing "smart triage" automation to resolve routine inquiries without human intervention.

Below, we define our Factors of Growth & Impact to help Anchorage Villagers measure their impact and articulate feedback, coaching, and the rich learning that happens while exploring, developing, and mastering capabilities within and beyond the Member of Client Solutions & Enablement on the Product Team:

Technical Skills:

• API Mastery: Demonstrate comprehensive knowledge of Anchorage Digital’s product suite and API capabilities to support a wide range of use cases. You will develop a distinct "identity" and "taste" for our APIs to ensure they are unique and competitive.
• Testing & Validation: You will explore and implement test harnesses for off-chain flow validation, allowing clients to test integrations without immediate manual support. This includes maintaining robust Postman collections for client use.
• Proactive Monitoring: Instead of reacting to tickets, you will implement API monitoring at the endpoint and workflow level to catch UX inefficiencies before they impact the client.
• Architecture & Design: You must be capable of designing tailored architectures and "flow-of-funds" diagrams to support the sales process and ensure feasible technical design.
• Champion API Parity: You will proactively identify gaps where API functionality lags behind UI capabilities and work with Product to drive parity, ensuring our APIs function with the same logic and fidelity as our user interfaces.
• Drive Growth via Analytics: You will utilize Monthly Active Users (MAUs) and other analytics to surface trends where clients are underutilizing the platform, equipping Relationship Managers with actionable insights to expand client usage.
• Organizational Knowledge Scaling: You will prevent knowledge silos by sharing best practices, insights, and integration patterns across the organization. You will mentor team members to elevate the technical competency of the entire group.
• Cross-Functional Influence: You will work across team boundaries, using data-driven arguments to shape technical and business decisions and influence the product roadmap.

• Define API Standards and Best Practices: You will establish and codify the design principles, conventions, and quality standards that define Anchorage's API identity, ensuring our platform reflects a consistent, world-class developer experience.
• Drive Cross-Product API Cohesion: You will collaborate across product verticals to identify inconsistencies and champion improvements that bring APIs to parity, ensuring clients experience seamless integration regardless of which Anchorage services they use.
• Establish Robust Pre-Release Testing: You will work with Engineering to implement comprehensive testing frameworks and release validation processes that prevent regressions and ensure API reliability before new features reach production.
