Contribute to RFP/RFI responses, creating comprehensive solution documentation including Bill of Materials (BoM), redundancy and topology planning
Work closely with product management and engineering, providing real-world field feedback to enhance product roadmaps around automation, telemetry, security, and feature development
Represent HPE at industry events, AI summits, and technology forums, highlighting the value of HPE’s networking portfolio in comparison to competitors
Stay ahead of the curve by tracking emerging trends, analysing the competitive landscape, and influencing internal strategies for next-gen network innovation
Author technical content such as white papers, solution briefs, and thought leadership pieces covering HPE’s strengths in AI networking, campus transformation, and routing architectures
Deliver product and feature demonstrations to customers and partners, clearly explaining capabilities and reinforcing the product’s value and competitive positioning

Requirements:

Deep knowledge and hands-on experience in networking protocols: BGP, OSPF, EVPN, VXLAN, MCLAG, DRNI, ISSU, MACSec, DCI
Experience in Day 0 to Day 1 deployment of spine-leaf fabrics with any SDN controllers, micro segmentation, and service chaining
Working knowledge of automation and orchestration tools used in data center deployments
Familiarity with SDN controller architecture and integration with third-party services
