Your Impact
As a Technical Marketing Engineer on the Company's Validated team, you will help turn One and Better Together strategy into field-credible technical proof. You will lead defined validation workstreams for integrated solutions, building and testing lab environments that reflect real customer scenarios and help determine what is repeatable, supportable, and ready for the field.

You will work with Sr. TMEs, Business Unit product managers, Business Unit TMEs, architects, field teams, and Company Validated peers to execute validation plans, capture evidence, identify integration gaps, and translate technical findings into assets that sales teams, architects, partners, and customers can trust. You will be expected to bring structure to assigned workstreams, work through technical ambiguity, and keep validation tasks moving from test plan to credible proof.
You will also build broader technical fluency across the portfolio, contribute to repeatable validation practices, support earlier-career TMEs and external partner resources, and grow toward larger cross-portfolio ownership over time.

Responsibilities

• Lead defined validation workstreams for integrated solutions under Sr. TME guidance.
• Build, configure, test, and troubleshoot lab environments that reflect real customer deployment scenarios.
• Execute validation plans, capture evidence, identify issues, and document repeatable outcomes.
• Partner with Sr. TMEs, BU product managers, BU TMEs, architects, field teams, and Validated peers to keep validation work technically credible and field-relevant.
• Support earlier-career TMEs and external partner resources by sharing lab practices, troubleshooting approaches, and validation lessons learned.

Minimum Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Information Technology, or equivalent technical experience.
• 7+ years of hands-on experience designing, testing, troubleshooting, or supporting complex networking, security, cloud, collaboration, or data center environments.
• Working depth in at least one technical domain, with the aptitude to learn new domains quickly.
• Experience contributing to technical work across product, engineering, field, sales, customer-facing, or cross-functional teams.
• Ability to execute validation plans, capture evidence, document findings, and communicate technical results clearly.
• Demonstrated ability to stay effective and adaptable in ambiguous technical environments with shifting priorities and cross-functional dependencies.

Preferred Qualifications

• Working knowledge of the portfolio, with hands-on experience across one or more technologies, architectures, or solution domains.
• Demonstrated ability to understand how products integrate into broader customer architectures and cross-portfolio outcomes.
• Strong general networking foundation, including routing, switching, wireless, security, cloud connectivity, segmentation, policy, observability, or related infrastructure concepts.
• Exposure to AI infrastructure, AI-ready data center architectures, GPU cluster networking, high-performance fabrics, workload connectivity, or secure AI architecture concepts.
• Experience validating, designing, deploying, or supporting integrated solutions in lab, field, customer, partner, or systems engineering environments.
• Ability to communicate technical findings clearly through lab notes, validation results, documentation inputs, technical reviews, and proof assets.

Technical Scope
The ideal candidate brings broad technical fluency across the portfolio, with depth in one or more domains and the ability to learn quickly as strategy evolves. This role requires enough technical range to validate integrated outcomes, identify gaps, and explain how technologies work together in real customer environments.

Key areas of technical scope may include:

• Secure networking, routing, switching, wireless, segmentation, policy, assurance, and observability.
• Security architectures, secure access, threat detection, identity, firewall, VPN, and zero trust concepts.
• Cloud, data center, AI infrastructure, workload connectivity, high-performance fabrics, and hybrid cloud architectures.
• Collaboration platforms, user experience, application behavior, and integrated workflow considerations.
• Digital resilience, operational continuity, telemetry, troubleshooting, incident readiness, and repeatable recovery patterns.
• Lab validation methods, performance testing, interoperability testing, evidence capture, and technical documentation.
