• Provide merchant-facing operational support during integrations and go-lives: perform configuration validation, test flows, run hypercare checklists, and act as the first escalation point for CS and AM teams
• Monitor performance and routing dashboards; compile weekly insights on rejection reasons, performance variances, and optimization opportunities for partner managers and Product
• Maintain and update the Partner Health Matrix and run scheduled health check updates; log risks, follow action items, and report status to stakeholders
• Own execution-quality tasks: ensure data accuracy in systems, documentation currency in runbooks, and adherence to change-management protocols
