About the role

Key responsibilities & impact
  • Lead the end-to-end technical delivery of Cisco Service Provider solutions, owning solution design, implementation, and customer acceptance across complex SP network programs.
  • Act as the senior technical authority during delivery, translating high-level designs (HLDs) into low-level designs (LLDs), MOPs, and validated implementation plans.
  • Lead and manage the full services project lifecycle across the customer's engagements: initiation, planning, execution, monitoring/control, and closure.
  • Coordinate multiple concurrent projects within the program, ensuring delivery on time, within budget, and to agreed quality while adhering to Cisco's GPMO methodology.
  • Act as the central point of program control and communication between Cisco.
  • Create and maintain detailed project/program plans, including scope, schedule, resources, cost, quality, communications, and risk/issue logs.
  • Drive adherence to scope and manage change requests with the customer, partners, and Cisco account teams.
  • Monitor baseline dimensions — schedule, cost, and quality — and proactively identify and mitigate risks with clear contingency plans.
  • Lead strategic technical discussions across stakeholders, share Cisco’s product roadmap by integrating customer feedback and market insights, and develop differentiated solutions that drive long-term business value.

Requirements

What you’ll need

  • Strong customer-facing communication and the ability to present technical solutions to engineering and leadership audiences.
  • PMP certification or equivalent project/program management credential (PRINCE2, etc.).
  • Deep expertise in MPLS, including LDP, RSVP-TE, MPLS-TE, L2VPN/L3VPN (VPNv4/VPNv6, EVPN), and traffic engineering at SP scale.
  • Strong hands-on SRv6 design and deployment experience — uSID, SRv6 TE policies, flex-algo, and migration strategies from MPLS/SR-MPLS to SRv6.
