## Job description

### Role Summary

As a Customer Quality Engineer (CQE) at Cisco, you will serve as a high-level technical authority and strategic partner for our most critical customers. In this role, you will bridge the gap between the Engineering, Global Supply Chain, and Customer Experience organizations. You will be responsible for driving proactive quality strategies as the customer’s advocate, leading high-impact failure investigations, and influencing executive stakeholders through data-driven insights to ensure the reliability and performance of Cisco’s global install base.

### Key Responsibilities

Strategic Quality Engagement: Develop and drive a customer-centric hardware quality engagement model for strategic accounts, ensuring end-to-end visibility and transparency on all quality-related matters.

### Executive Technical Leadership

Lead monthly external hardware quality performance deep dives, providing actionable metrics, comprehensive issue summaries, and expert-level Root Cause Analysis (RCA) discussions for key customer stakeholders.

### Cross-Functional Orchestration

Coordinate complex customer communications regarding corrective and customer mitigation actions (ECO, PCN, Field Notice), serving as the primary liaison between Account Teams, CX, Operations, Quality, and Engineering for these issues.

### Field Mitigation & Remediation

Lead field remediation actions for high-impact events in key customer’s networks. Monitor customer’s in-service and early-life failure activity, and execute tailored mitigation strategies for large-scale, complex network environments.

### Operational Integrity

Implement and track field mitigation agreements, including rigorous monitoring across global service depots and networks to minimize customer risk and downtime.

### Proactive Analytics

Apply advanced statistical methods and data analytics to uncover actionable insights, drive proactive issue identification, and conduct customer site audits to resolve installation and operational challenges.

### Engineering Integration

Partner with quality and design engineering teams to maintain deep, expert-level knowledge of product architecture, failure mechanisms, and quality trends across the customer install base.

### Escalation Management

Provide in-region support for critical escalations, assessing technical impact and executing rapid, effective field actions to resolve high-priority quality issues.

### Required Qualifications & Experience

Education: Bachelor’s Degree in Engineering or related with 8+ years of related experience, or a Master’s Degree or related with 6+ years of related experience.

### Domain Expertise

Extensive, recognized experience in Product or Customer Quality Engineering with a deep understanding of product architecture and complex failure mechanisms.

### Strategic Acumen

Proven ability to analyze the upstream and downstream impacts of technical changes, providing strategic recommendations that improve product performance and reliability.

### Leadership & Influence

Demonstrated success leading multiple high-priority projects and acting as a technical lead in cross-functional, matrixed environments.

### Advanced Analytics

Exceptional ability to apply statistical modeling and data analytics to identify innovative, long-term solutions to persistent quality challenges.

### Communication

Superior ability to influence and align executive-level stakeholders through compelling, data-driven storytelling and clear, professional technical reporting. Why Cisco?
