• You understand hybrid cloud architectures, data platforms, and consumption economics — and can quickly translate technology decisions into business impact for IT buyers, Finance leaders, and line-of-business decision makers in mid-market companies
• You are results-driven, resilient, and energized by velocity — thriving in a SLED territory with higher deal volume, faster cycles, and the opportunity to build pipeline from scratch while inheriting momentum from a growing GTM motion
• You thrive in whitespace, finding VMware displacement opportunities, new workload targets, and net-new buyers where others see noise — and converting customer pain into high-value deals aligned to NetApp's four portfolio motions
• You are a credible, consultative seller with the ability to build and pitch value-based proposals — tailoring discovery, storytelling, and ROI narratives for buying personas across IT, Finance, Security, and the business — even when budget cycles are shorter and decisions move faster
• You are confident building ROI and TCO models, structuring deal economics, and guiding mid-market executives through financial decisions with clarity and credibility — meeting buyers at their level, not above it
• Your communication is crisp, timely, and persona-driven. Mid-market customers trust your ability to simplify complexity, move quickly, and keep deals advancing with clear next steps
• You believe in orchestration and leverage — activating ISRs, partners, and specialists as force multipliers to cover more ground, move faster, and win more deals in a segment that rewards speed and execution
• You balance in-quarter deal execution with multi-quarter territory planning — building pipeline through proactive outreach, targeted campaigns, and partner-led sourcing — so new sellers inherit a territory with momentum, not a blank slate
• You are committed to customer satisfaction and solution adoption — maintaining healthy long-term relationships that drive retention, expansion, and referrals in a segment where reputation travels fast
• You are committed to a culture of belonging where diverse perspectives fuel stronger outcomes
