You'll also steward the enterprise Knowledge Graph platform, the connective tissue between entities, relationships, and signals that powers AI reasoning and GTM intelligence. This is a high-visibility leadership role at the intersection of data, AI, Agents, and go-to-market transformation — one that directly shapes how the enterprise operates today and how Agentforce-powered experiences are built tomorrow.

Act as a Strategic External Partner
