Description
Fortinet is currently looking for a talented individual to join our Product Management team to assist in the continued development of our Wireless and related Services product line as a Technical Engineer. As a member of the Product Management team, you will be responsible for engaging with various departments, including but not limited to Product Marketing, Hardware and Software Engineering teams, System Engineering and other sales related functions, to prepare documentation, videos, hand on labs and solution testing. This includes preparation of detailed guidelines, competitive analysis, product evangelism, knowledge transfer activities, and assisting with product launch and analyst engagements.

This position will be responsible for promoting product functionality and solutions and driving product requirements while working closely with Fortinet Engineering and internal Product Management on precise deliverables.

The successful candidate will have a Product Management or System Engineering technical background with directly related experience and the ability to prioritize requirements based on strategic and customer revenue opportunities, as well as product roadmaps planning based on resources availability and time-to-market considerations.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:
    • To work closely with Product Management and Field teams to prepare detailed documentation, practical hands on labs, theoretical documentation and market research to assist Product Management in assessing priorities and competitive landscape. • To create regular reports to capture priorities and tasks. • To work with other product teams on integration paths and documentation including testing solutions where applicable.

REQUIREMENTS:
    • Strong technical and market familiarization with networking and security technologies in general with a specific focus on wireless. • Hands on experience rather than theoretical discussion is strongly preferred. • 5+ years of industry experience, preferably in the networking, or security sectors. • Previous product management experience while desirable is not essential. The individual should be able to demonstrate an understanding the general product planning discipline, with previous cross collaboration teamwork experience in working with development engineering, field sales and directly with customers. • Candidates should have solid organizational skills and be excited about working hard in a challenging, fast-paced environment. • Must be a team player and have exceptional communication skills. • This position requires travel to customer and non-customer sites in North America and across the world.
