We are looking for a team player who has a diverse background in troubleshooting, networking, Linux/*nix, Windows, and storage protocols (NFS, CIFS, FC).  We need an enthusiastic individual who enjoys a challenge, as the environment changes rapidly. This person will have access to leading-edge hardware and software including Cisco UCS, VMWare, NetApp FAS and Engenio systems, FC/FCoE/10Gbe, Hadoop, Lustre, etc.  In-depth storage experience not necessary but definitely good to have.

At the CPOC labs, we simulate portions of customer environments to demonstrate product functionality or to determine performance characteristics. The environments vary widely: from Linux render farms to ISP-style mail environments to large data warehouses. We are a worldwide sales enablement function, and our mission is to drive revenue by performing Proof of Concepts that are needed for near-term or strategic sales opportunities. At the PS Labs, we assist the post sales organization by helping them with self-training, solution evaluation, and delivery preparation.
