(A) JOB SUMMARY

As a Customer Engineer at Lepton Software, you will act as the primary technical trusted advisor for our diverse portfolio of Google Maps customers. Unlike a pre-sales role, your focus is on the "how" and the "now" helping customers realize the full potential of their investment.

You will guide clients through complex implementations, optimize their current usage, and drive the adoption of cutting-edge location intelligence features. You will be the bridge between our customer's engineering teams and the business value delivered by Google Maps.

Implementation & Onboarding

• Technical Onboarding : Lead the technical kickoff for new customers, guiding them through API key generation, quota management, and security best practices (IAM, restricting keys).
• Architecture Guidance : Advise customer engineering teams on the optimal architecture for integrating Google Maps APIs (Places, Routes, Maps JS) into their web and mobile applications to ensure scalability and performance.
• Code-Level Support : Provide code samples, snippets, and review client code to ensure seamless initial deployment.
• Production Forensics : Perform deep-dive root cause analysis (RCA) when customers face issues in their production environments.
• Shadowing & Reproduction : actively "shadow" customer workflows and conduct live debugging sessions to reproduce intermittent bugs or edge-case errors that only occur in specific live scenarios.

Consultation & Optimization

o Performance Tuning : proactively analyze customer implementations to identify latency issues, unnecessary API calls, or rendering bottlenecks.

o Cost Optimization : Consult with clients on how to structure their API usage efficiently to maximize value while managing costs (e.g., caching strategies, session tokens vs. autocomplete).

o Health Checks : Conduct regular technical reviews (Quarterly Business Reviews) to audit the client’s tech stack and recommend improvements.
