Qualifications - 8+ years in product management, network engineering, or carrier sales engineering, with at least 3 years focused on hyperscaler, cloud provider, or large-scale wholesale customers. - Deep working knowledge of optical transport, dark fiber, DWDM/managed wavelengths, route engineering, and long-haul/metro network economics. - Proven track record productizing custom infrastructure solutions and scaling them into repeatable revenue. - Demonstrated commercial fluency: pricing, IRU structures, capex/opex trade-offs, margin analysis, contract negotiation support. - Experience operating in a matrixed environment with Sales, Engineering, Operations, and Finance. - Excellent executive communication; comfortable presenting to senior hyperscaler stakeholders and internal leadership. Preferred Qualifications - Direct experience selling to or working inside one of the major hyperscalers (AWS, Microsoft, Google, Meta, Oracle). - Familiarity with AI/ML infrastructure buildouts, data center interconnect (DCI), and subsea/terrestrial route planning. - MBA or equivalent commercial experience. - Background in managed services productization (not just transport sales).
