Role essence: customer-facing technical enablement — lead strategic enterprise customers through migration + query-performance problems onto distributed multi-region DSQL, define adoption best practices, channel field feedback into product direction.

Open CHEAT_SHEET → say the scoring words aloud → one STAR story with its metric → today's Focus + Lab from STUDY_PLAN. End every lab with: "how would I teach this to a customer, and what feedback would I take back to Eng?"
