• Champion the business value of Riverbed solutions through visibility, and business outcomes.
• Analyze customer IT organizations, requirements, and processes to drive adoption and utilization of Riverbed solutions and maximize ROI and business value.
• Deliver Aternity primarily in SaaS operating models, ensuring stability, scalability, and operational readiness.
• Guide customers on DEX operating models, SaaS best practices, and long‑term adoption strategies.
• Translate business and IT objectives into measurable experience and productivity outcomes.
• Own transition planning from a DEX and platform perspective, including architecture, sequencing, risks, and dependencies. Ability to engage credibly with senior customer stakeholders.
• Lead or support on‑prem to SaaS transitions for Aternity customers, particularly in regulated or secured environments.
• Partner with security, engineering, and delivery teams to ensure transitions are completed smoothly and securely.
• Lead customer workshops covering DEX strategy, SaaS architecture, migration readiness, and success criteria.

What makes you an ideal candidate

• Based locally in the US, with active TS/SCI clearance.
• Bachelor’s or master’s degree in computer science or equivalent professional experience.
• 10+ years of experience in Professional Services, Consulting, or advanced technical advisory roles.
• Technical problem‑solving & troubleshooting skills with demonstrated ability to learn quickly.
• Excellent speaking, business writing and presentation skills.
• Ability to communicate & present effectively at all levels up to senior management & C‑Suite, with technical and non‑technical audiences.
• Deep, hands‑on experience with Digital Employee Experience (DEX), application experience, and observability.
• Experience delivering solutions in SaaS environments, including adoption and operationalization.
• Prior involvement in on‑prem to SaaS transitions or hybrid migrations.
