MEMORANDUM

Model N, Inc. appeals the district court’s grant of summary judgment that Jeremy Gordon, Model N’s principal technical education consultant, was not an administrative employee exempt from overtime pay under the California Labor Code. Reviewing the grant of summary judgment de novo, Fuller v. Idaho Dep’t of Corr., 865 F.3d 1154, 1161 (9th Cir. 2017), we affirm.

As part of Model N’s global customer-service department, Gordon taught Model N’s customers how to use its software. Besides his trainer responsibilities, Gordon created a “curriculum style guide”; a “clean training environment,” which saved Model N approximately $100,000; an instructor’s manual on training; training materials modified to meet customers’ needs; and a “Wiki” to “organize departmental information and improve on-boarding time for new hires.” Gordon did not negotiate contracts, develop programming or technical applications, or design or code any of Model N’s software.

Section 515(a) of the California Labor Code exempts executive, administrative, and professional employees from overtime pay. California Industrial Welfare Commission regulations define the administrative exemption as follows:

8 Cal. Code Regs. § 11040(1)(A)(2).

' The district court held, and the record shows, that “[although Gordon’s work related to the heart of Model N’s business, and the service he provided was essential to its success, his role in that work did not relate to the general operations of the business.” Gordon’s work did not relate to Model N’s or its customers’ management policies or general business operations. See Eicherv. Advanced Bus. Integrators, Inc., 151 Cal.App.4th 1363 , 61 Cal.Rptr.3d 114, 119 (2007). That is enough to make the exemption inapplicable,

After the district court entered its order, the parties stipulated to dismissal, with prejudice, of Gordon’s claims for Model N’s failure to itemize wage statements, for waiting-time penalties under the California Labor Code, and for overtime pay and liquidated damages under the Fair Labor Standards Act. We do not consider claims that the parties agreed to dismiss before the district court ruled on the remaining claims. See Am. Bankers Mortg. Corp. v. Fed. Home Loan Mortg. Corp., 75 F.3d 1401 , 1413 (9th Cir. 1996).

AFFIRMED.
