Define and own the product strategy, roadmap, and lifecycle for integrated, vendor-neutral HPC and quantum solutions.
Prioritize customer mission requirements over vendor lock-in, promoting open standards, modular architectures, and interoperability.
Collaborate with engineering, research, and solution architecture teams to translate customer needs into scalable, secure, and mission-aligned products.
Identify, evaluate, and pursue new business opportunities across government, research, defense, commercial sectors, and academic institutes.
Support strategic accounts and partnerships by articulating the value of vendor-agnostic integrated compute environments.
Act as a trusted advisor to customers, guiding them through capability assessments, proof-of-concepts, and long-term planning.
Lead the system design of end-to-end computing solutions that combine classical HPC with quantum or hybrid workloads.
Evaluate and recommend open-source and commercial tools, frameworks, and hardware across multiple vendors.
Ensure all solutions are adaptable to existing enterprise ecosystems and evolving technology standards.
Work closely with internal stakeholders across product, sales, R&D, delivery and support to ensure product/solution alignment with mission needs.
Lead customer discovery, requirements gathering, and solution validation efforts.
Support go-to-market activities with technical collateral, messaging, and training.
