• Develop and execute territory strategy targeting C-level (CIO, CTO, VP of Infrastructure, Network Architecture leads).
• Conduct executive-level discovery to uncover digital transformation, AI, security, and automation initiatives.
• Position Ruckus One (R1) and Ruckus AI (RAI) as the future-proof, cloud-first alternative to legacy controllers and switch stacks.
• Drive technical validation with SEs: PoCs, RFPs, TCO/ROI models, migration plans from SmartZone, Cisco DNA, Aruba Central, etc.
• Navigate complex, multi-stakeholder sales cycles (12–18+ months) with legal, procurement, and security teams.
