• Strong written specs and crisp verbal communication with both principal engineers and non-technical GTM stakeholders.
• Hands-on or prior engineering background in hardware, systems, or network OS is a plus, with certifications such as CCNP, CCIE, or JNCIE welcome but not required.

• Run continuous market, competitive, and customer research, turning signals into roadmap prioritization.
• Partner with hardware engineering, software engineering, and suppliers from concept through EVT, DVT, PVT, and GA.
• Make explicit tradeoffs across performance, cost, schedule, supply risk, and manufacturability.
• Drive issue triage during bring-up, keeping quality and schedule visible to leadership.
• Engage design partners to validate use cases, especially GPU cluster and high-radix fabric deployments.
• Manage relationships with key silicon, optics, and ODM/CM partners.
• Lead launch planning: positioning, pricing inputs, competitive battlecards, sales enablement, and customer-facing collateral.
