Our team is seeking a Solutions Engineer as part of our evolving Cloud and AI Infrastructure team. You will educate, influence, and position the right technical solution to meet the end user’s business needs. You will be an agent of change in an industry where rapid innovation has become the norm, and your insight will ensure that Cisco's customers are always at the forefront of capturing the value of these transitions.
Whilst no week is ever the same, here are some ideas of what will fill your day;
Supporting our pre-sales engagements by bringing a deep understanding of how technology can solve complex business problems. Continually looking at ways to strengthen Cisco's value proposition, you'll focus on innovative outcomes that bring value to our customers. Competing and winning against other suppliers by advocating a 'big picture' approach, developing outstanding competitive insight and sharing successful strategies with the broader team. Becoming the 'go to' technical specialist that customers trust, enabling us to build lasting and meaningful relationships. Exploiting your vast technical knowledge and experience, you'll deliver outstanding technical presentations, facilitate creative solution workshops, lead proof of concept labs, and, when needed - get into the raw detail of how technology works.
Who You’ll Work With
You will become part of the dynamic team that owns and drives the product and solution strategy for Cisco's Cloud & AI Infrastructure Group. Acting as a trusted technical advisor, we work as part of a dedicated and hardworking Cisco team, who care deeply about our customers, partners, our team and one another.
Who You Are
You are curious, driven, and capable of bringing clarity to ambiguous situations. You are a technical seller with a solid understanding of Hybrid Cloud and Data Centre products, and how to combine and integrate them. You can convert your deep technical expertise into a language that your customers can easily absorb and repeat. In addition to technical proficiency and the ability for accelerated learning, you have social, presentation, interpersonal and problem-solving skills that evoke passion and confidence.
You excel in understanding and positioning the technologies that lie at the heart of modern AI-Ready Data Centres and get really fired up when discussing AI Infrastructure, Hybrid Cloud, Infrastructure as Code, and Application Infrastructures. You’ll know the Cisco Cloud & AI Infrastructure portfolio or have competed against Cisco. When we say AI Pods, UCS, Hyperfabric, MDS, Nexus or ACI you’ll smile and be able to say “I know what these are, let me tell you more”. Being adaptable is one of your strengths. You recognise that nothing stays the same and that change is part of the job. You are passionate about the art of the possible and love seeing this brought to life.
