About The Position
The Cisco Cloud Control team is building the platform foundation that brings Cisco’s cloud-managed and controller-based products together into a unified customer experience. Our work spans product strategy, platform architecture, identity, onboarding, topology, supportability, compliance, security, and cross-product integrations. We partner closely with engineering, security, legal, compliance, CX, TAC, GTM, and product teams across Cisco to ensure Cloud Control can scale for enterprise, regulated, sovereign, and global customers. This is a high-impact team operating at the intersection of product strategy, platform execution, customer trust, and market access. The work is sophisticated, cross-functional, and highly visible, with direct impact on how customers adopt, deploy, and trust Cisco Cloud Control.

You will also partner with platform teams to resolve foundational blockers related to tenant onboarding, access control, and operational readiness. Finally, you will serve as a trusted technical advisor to leadership, framing trade-offs and prioritizing investments to meet security and market expectations at scale.
