Meet the Team:

You will join the Global GTM Incubation & Emerging Technologies team, responsible for commercializing and scaling our newest technology innovations. Sourced directly from our Product and Business Units, these rapid innovations require a specialized, agile approach to find market fit before they can be absorbed by the mainstream sales force. Our mission is to partner with Product leaders to develop, test, and validate early-stage go-to-market hypotheses. We work to secure the company’s first lighthouse customer wins and build the repeatable sales and partner playbooks required to bring these products into the broader sales organizations.

Your Impact:

As a Multicloud Network Architecture Solutions Engineer, you will drive the technical adoption of emerging multicloud network architectures and technologies. You will build and maintain strong customer relationships, utilizing your technical acumen to align our innovative, early-stage solutions with complex customer needs. By collaborating cross-functionally with product, engineering, and sales teams, you will help define the technical Ideal Customer Profile (ICP) and validate market fit through rapid prototyping and proof-of-concepts. Your efforts in architecting reference demos, validating technical hypotheses, and developing technical go-to-market playbooks will directly contribute to scaling new products and establishing repeatable technical sales motions for the broader organization.

Minimum Qualifications

• 8+ years of demonstrated expertise in network software and solutions.

• 5+ years of architectural experience with the ability to create reference demos, proof plans, deployment patterns, and enablement materials.

• 3+ years of experience maintaining technical registers, decision logs, and readiness checklists, including identifying dependencies.

• 2+ years of experience driving rapid prototyping and proof-of-concepts from initial concept through pilot, launch readiness, and scale.

• Experience collaborating with sales counterparts to support technical validation and customer outcomes.

Preferred Qualifications

• Advanced understanding of go-to-market strategies for early-stage technology products and services.

• Proven ability to translate complex technical concepts into clear, business-focused value propositions for diverse audiences.

• Experience working in an agile environment, adapting quickly to shifting priorities and market feedback.

• Strong cross-functional collaboration skills to influence product development and sales strategies without direct authority.

• Familiarity with API integrations, cloud architectures, and modern software deployment methodologies.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
