Create external customer-facing guides and knowledge base articles to improve deployment success and reduce support escalations.
Conduct technical enablement sessions for Professional Services, PreSales, and Support teams.

4. Continuous Improvement & Innovation

Stay current with evolving storage technologies, protocols, and best practices in cloud infrastructure.
Partner with Engineering to identify product enhancements that improve storage interoperability and performance.
Proactively suggest improvements to Professional Services delivery methodologies for storage integration.

Required Qualifications

15+ years of enterprise storage expertise, with hands-on experience across multiple vendor ecosystems and technologies.
Deep knowledge of storage protocols and architectures, including Fibre Channel, iSCSI, NFS and S3.
Ability to troubleshoot complex storage performance and connectivity issues across multi-vendor environments.
