In this role, you’ll work closely with engineering, product, Solutions Engineering , and Sales to ensure successful delivery, deployment, and adoption of our platform across customer cloud and edge environments.

Comfort guiding deployments in customer-managed cloud and edge environments.

Startup Execution & Adaptability
