  • Collaborate cross-functionally with wired networking, cloud platform, and AI engineering teams to ensure a cohesive Extreme Platform ONE experience.
  • Manage engineering budgets, vendor/ODM relationships, and resource planning to meet business objectives.
  • Represent engineering in executive reviews, board updates, and customer/analyst briefings as needed.
  • Champion innovation in emerging areas such as Wi-Fi 8, Agentic AI, and private wireless/cellular convergence.
  • Foster a culture of accountability, technical excellence, and continuous improvement.

Required Qualifications

  • 12–15+ years of engineering experience in networking or wireless technology, with 8+ years in engineering leadership roles managing managers.
  • Deep technical knowledge of Wi-Fi/WLAN technologies (802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax/be), RF engineering, wireless controllers, and embedded networking systems.
  • Proven track record of shipping complex hardware and software products at scale in a fast-paced, competitive market.
  • Experience building and scaling distributed engineering teams, including offshore/nearshore development centers.
  • Strong understanding of cloud-managed networking architectures and SaaS delivery models.
  • Excellent executive communication skills, with experience presenting to C-level stakeholders, customers, and industry analysts.
  • Demonstrated ability to balance long-term technical vision with short-term delivery commitments.

What We Offer
