  • Influence specifications early in the design phase.
  • Support large, multi-year framework agreements.
  • Translate customer requirements (e.g., liquid cooling, redundancy, efficiency) into optimal solutions.
  • Collaborate with technical team to offer solutions to meet market demands.
  • Align with central sales, product management, customer service, operations and engineering teams.
  • Provide voice-of-customer insights into product development.
