Product Marketing Manager, Cloud Security

for Azure NetApp Files (ANF)—a first-party, fully managed enterprise file service on Microsoft Azure, delivered in deep partnership between NetApp and Microsoft.

In the spirit of NetApp’s “business builder” cloud roles, you will translate a fast-moving AI landscape into differentiated platform capabilities, joint roadmap bets with Microsoft, and enterprise outcomes (performance, data locality, governance, and time-to-value for AI pipelines).

You will sit at the intersection of enterprise storage, Azure AI infrastructure, data foundation for training, inference, RAG, analytics, simulation, and agentic workflows—without forcing customers to abandon enterprise file semantics, AI services, GPU estates, data platforms, and regulated enterprise Turn emerging patterns (LLMs, RAG, agents, orchestration, multimodal data, vector retrieval, high-throughput checkpointing) into concrete product requirements and joint go-to-market narratives with Microsoft.

* Balance hyperscaler co-development constraints with NetApp differentiation (enterprise data services, multiprotocol access, lifecycle management, resiliency, and cross-cloud consistency, where relevant).

Prioritize investments across performance, scale, data services, protocol and API surfaces, and operational excellence for AI pipelines.
