Title: Strategic Alliance Manager – Networking and IT Infrastructure Partners

 Job Location:   Sunnyvale, CA

Job Summary:  This self-starter will be responsible for strategizing and driving the NetApp relationships with several networking partners and other IT Infrastructure partners, which my include server, OS, or technology partners. In partnership with Product Marketing, this person will identify and prioritize partnerships. This person will directly manage the relationship with multiple Tier 1 & 2 partners.  This person will also manage the internal cross-functional efforts of Engineering, Technical Marketing, Product Marketing, Solutions Marketing, Marketing communications, and Sales as those efforts relate to the managed partners.  Work with ‘Product Marketing’, NetApp’s standard partner programs, certification programs, and developer support programs to establish effective management of Tier 3 partners.  This person would help determine if any Tier 2 partners should become Tier 1 and, if so, champion them and transition them to the increased level of dedicated alliance management.

Create sales tools documenting our relationships and providing customers and the Field with needed information on our joint solutions. Present solution options to customers. Work with engineering and customer service organizations of both companies to resolve development issues as needed or customer escalations.  Present to customers/prospects in the EBC (Executive Briefing Center) or on site to provide an overview and/or details of responsible partnerships as requested by particular customers/prospects.
