• Customer and Market Discovery: Drive deep technical discovery with cloud service providers (CSPs), enterprise customers, and OEMs/ODMs to translate complex infrastructure operational pain points into clear product requirements (PRDs).
• Fleet Manageability and Observability: Champion standard-based manageability (e.g., Redfish, OpenBMC, PLDM) and robust telemetry pipelines to ensure platforms are observable, controllable, and secure at hyperscale.
• Execution and Lifecycle Management: Own the complete lifecycle from PRD generation and engineering sprint prioritization to platform bring-up, validation, security patching, and end-of-life planning.
