The Transceiver Modules Group Business Unit handles Cisco's pluggable optic modules that enable customers to connect switches, routers, and servers with high-speed fiber optics. The Product Management team includes Product Managers and Technical Marketing Engineers (TMEs) and covers a broad range of optical technologies, customer applications, and market segments. The TMEs support the team's business goals by supporting sales, fostering new technology, and performing investigations and demos.
What You'll DoIn this role, you will craft and implement validation test plans for Cisco's optics based on AI customer requirements. You will prepare technical content to support Product Requirement Documents and specifications for new products for AI applications. You will collaborate with technology and Go-To-Market partners for interoperability testing and system functional validation, and respond to field inquiries related to optical transceivers. Additionally, you will contribute to forward-looking programs, roadmaps and collaborate on content for internal Concept Commits and Execution Commits, focusing on customers, configurations, and competitive industry information.
Who You'll Work WithWe value creativity and collaboration. Sometimes the wild ideas turn out to be the best ones! You'll also collaborate with the product managers, TMEs, and engineers in our BU and other Cisco BUs.
Who You AreYou're a problem solver who embraces opportunities to step outside your comfort zone. You are comfortable solving pluggable optics in switches and routers, even in front of customers. You know your way around a fiber optics lab with high-speed scopes and optical spectrum analyzers. You know that machines are logical and people can be more nuanced.
Minimum Qualifications:- Bachelors + 8 years of experience and/or Masters + 6 years of related experience or PhD with 3+ years, preferably combined with a degree in Electrical Engineering or a physical science or related.
- Experience in Technical Marketing, Field Application Engineering, or related.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Knowledge of customer optical infrastructure requirements in AI datacenter networks.
- Knowledge of or prior experience with relevant networking technologies, and an understanding of Cisco's switching and routing portfolio.
- Hands on skills for interoperability testing and validation activities in the lab (for example: validating optical modules on switches and routers).
- Knowledge of standards related to pluggable optical transceivers, including optical PMDs (e.g. IEEE 802.3xx, optical MSAs), pluggable form factor MSAs (SFF, QSFP-DD, CMIS, etc.), and IEEE Attachment Unit Interfaces (AUIs).
Why Cisco?
#WeAreCisco. We are all unique, but collectively we bring our talents to work as a team, to develop innovative technology and power a more inclusive, digital future for everyone. How do we do it? Well, for starters - with people like you!
Nearly every internet connection around the world touches Cisco. We're the Internet's optimists. Our technology makes sure the data traveling at light speed across connections does so securely, yet it's not what we make but what we make happen which marks us out. We're helping those who work in the health service to connect with patients and each other; schools, colleges, and universities to teach in even the most challenging of times. We're helping businesses of all shapes and sizes to connect with their employees and customers in new ways, providing people with access to the digital skills they need and connecting the most remote parts of the world - whether through 5G, or otherwise.
We tackle whatever challenges come our way. We have each other's backs, we recognize our accomplishments, and we grow together. We celebrate and support one another - from big and small things in life to big career moments. And giving back is in our DNA (we get 10 days off each year to do just that).
We know that powering an inclusive future starts with us. Because without diversity and a dedication to equality, there is no moving forward. Our 30 Inclusive Communities, that bring people together around commonalities or passions, are leading the way. Together we're committed to learning, listening, caring for our communities, whilst supporting the most vulnerable with a collective effort to make this world a better place either with technology, or through our actions.
So, you have colorful hair? Don't care. Tattoos? Show off your ink. Like polka dots? That's cool. Pop culture geek? Many of us are. Passion for technology and world changing? Be you, with us! #WeAreCisco
