Customer Onboarding Specialist
The Customer Onboarding Specialist is responsible for delivering high-quality technical onboarding experiences that reduce time-to-value and help customers successfully adopt Planet data, tools, and workflows.
Sitting within the Education & Enablement team, this role works closely with Customer Success, Technical Support, Professional Services, Product, and Revenue Operations to deliver a consistent, scalable onboarding experience across customer segments. The Onboarding Specialist leads the coordination of technical onboarding activities, contributes to live onboarding delivery, and supports the continuous improvement of onboarding content, campaigns, and processes.
In partnership with Customer Success, this role also provides ongoing technical enablement for strategic customers across Latin America, helping customers continue building technical proficiency, adopt new capabilities, and maximize value from Planet products throughout their customer journey. This role serves as a trusted technical partner for customers, supporting long-term adoption through technical guidance, education, and enablement.
This is a full-time, remote position based in Latin America. If located near an office, you are expected to work from that office 3 days per week.
