  • 4 years of technical program management or equivalent experience, specifically leading complex, cross-functional, and high-impact programs.
  • Expertise in building and maintaining effective program teams and establishing best practices to drive continuous improvement.

It’s preferred that you have:

  • Proficiency in instantiating highly scalable core and access networks in an active service-provider or enterprise environment
  • Direct experience provisioning/operating/troubleshooting one or more of Juniper, Cisco, Arista, Nokia, or Ciena network equipment in a service provider or medium to large enterprise environment.

  • Experience with network space planning (Rack face elevations, floorplans, electrical and heat density, etc).
