  • Network Data Management and Data Quality

  • FTTH/FTTx and Fiber Network Design

  • HFC Design and Modernization

  • OSP Engineering and Planning

  • Managed Engineering and Professional Services

• Develop strategic partnerships that generate introductions, pipeline, co-selling opportunities, and revenue.

• Work closely with engineering, pre-sales, product, and delivery teams to develop customer-specific solutions.

• Maintain accurate CRM records, pipeline visibility, and revenue forecasting.

Required Experience:

• 15+ years of experience in US broadband, telecommunications sales, or new business development.

• Proven experience winning new customers and closing complex services engagements.

• A strong and current personal network within:

  • MSOs

  • Broadband operators

  • Fiber providers

  • ISPs

  • Regional and rural broadband providers

  • Municipal and utility broadband organizations

• Demonstrate experience carrying and achieving an individual sales quota.

• Strong understanding of FTTH/FTTx, HFC, OSP, broadband engineering, network planning, and network operations.

• Experience selling engineering services, GIS/data solutions, professional services, managed services, or transformation programs.

• Strong executive communication, consultative selling, negotiation, and commercial skills.

• Ability to travel nationally across the United States.

Critical Requirement:

Candidates must have current, direct, and personal transferable relationships with decision-makers inside US broadband operators.

The strongest candidates will be able to demonstrate relationships with leaders responsible for:

• GIS and Network Information Systems

• Network Data Management

• Network Design and Engineering

• Fiber and OSP Engineering

• Network Planning and Architecture

• Serviceability and Construction Engineering

• Network Operations and Transformation

Ideal Candidate:

You are a hands-on new-business hunter who has personally built relationships, opened doors, won new logos, and closed complex services engagements within the US broadband industry.

You bring a strong operator-side network, understand broadband engineering and network transformation challenges, and have the credibility to engage senior stakeholders and convert relationships into meaningful revenue opportunities.

If you have a proven record of personally winning new business within US broadband operators and can bring immediate market access through your existing relationships, we would like to hear from you.
