• Collaborate with partners: Work closely with Net App’s regional reseller and partner ecosystem to enable joint customer engagements and support partner-led opportunities within the territory.
• Leverage internal expertise: Engage Solutions Architects and specialized technical resources on highly complex or multi-workload opportunities, coordinating the right internal support to drive successful outcomes.
