  • Train customers and partners using practical, use-case-specific guidance

  • Help codify best practices, templates and standards that improve delivery quality across the team

  • Support new product introductions by translating field experience into scalable implementation guidance

  • Provide field feedback to Product and Engineering based on customer and partner needs

What makes you a strong fit

  • 7+ years in Professional Services, consulting, solution delivery, or technical architecture for enterprise infrastructure, storage or data platforms

  • Strong enterprise storage and data center infrastructure background, ideally NAS or scale-out file environments

  • Hands-on knowledge of data center networking, including VLANs, LACP, MLAG and related dependencies

  • Experience with hybrid cloud storage, migrations or modernization initiatives

  • Experience training or co-delivering with partners

  • Experience supporting rollout of new products or service offerings
