There are people in my career that I have on a list that I refer to whenever I need to create or improve a team. Khalid is on that list. Khalid is the right blend of deeply technical, customer focused/facing and leadership. Khalid was instrumental at Apptio in developing and launching a brand new team that was focused on our most strategic customers. Khalid worked collaboratively with Engineering, Account Management, Professional Services and Customer Success. One of the best things about Khalid is his willingness to learn and continually developing his skillset to become the best at what he does. If you are looking for someone who can bring people together and manage a team of technical customer facing teams, Khalid is the solid choice.
