We lead in intelligent data infrastructure, delivering unified storage, integrated data services, and solutions that help organizations unlock the full potential of their data, from AI to multicloud. As the only enterprise-grade storage service natively embedded in Google Cloud, AWS, and Microsoft Azure, we empower customers to run everything from traditional workloads to enterprise AI with unmatched performance, resilience, and security.
Our culture celebrates mold breakers, bold thinkers, and problem solvers. We reward initiative, impact, and ownership, providing flexibility so you can balance professional ambition with your personal life. Here, differences are not just welcomed—they drive everything we do. We embrace a hybrid working environment designed to strengthen connection, collaboration, and culture for all employees.
This role is critical to advancing NetApp's shift toward value-led selling, enabling larger, more strategic, and more durable customer engagements. You will operate at the intersection of technology, finance, and executive strategy, partnering with sales teams and customers to quantify outcomes such as Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), Return on Investment (ROI), Net Present Value (NPV), and risk reduction.
In this highly strategic position, you will help customers make confident, technology investment decisions by translating NetApp solutions into measurable business value. Your work will directly influence deal strategy, accelerate pipeline progression, and position NetApp solutions around business outcomes versus solution cost. You will collaborate with passionate teams to tackle real-world challenges and see your impact in how customers transform and grow.
