Your mission is to drive predictable, world-class customer outcomes across the entire lifecycle from initial architecture, deployment & post-deployment phases. You will act as the critical corporate nexus aligning Professional Services (PS), Customer Success (CS), Product Engineering, and Go-To-Market (GTM) leadership. By championing delivery excellence, AI-powered operational consistency, and regional performance, you will directly influence how Palo Alto Networks scales its most sophisticated cybersecurity and AI-driven automation solutions for the world’s largest enterprises. ### Key Responsibilities Theater Ownership & Execution Alignment Drive Regional Excellence: Own the application, localized adoption, and quality governance of global COE methodologies, ensuring they are tailored effectively to regional market dynamics and compliance realities. ### Cross-Functional Orchestration Establish seamless alignment between Professional Services (PS) and Customer Success / Scale & Optimize (S&O) organizations to define unified delivery frameworks, joint handoffs, and customer success metrics. ### Executive Escalation & Governance Serve as the definitive regional authority and escalation point for complex methodology, scoping, and execution challenges, resolving high-stakes delivery roadblocks before they impact customer health. ### Lifecycle Ownership & Delivery Scale Unified Lifecycle Management Enforce and champion a cohesive, end-to-end customer journey that bridges the gap between initial implementation and long-term account value optimization/expansion. ### Operational Boundary Design Define, refine, and optimize operational ownership boundaries between PS and CS, eliminating friction, clarifying roles, and ensuring frictionless transitions for customers. ### AI-Driven Standardization at Scale Eradicate bespoke, one-off delivery approaches by designing, introducing, and enforcing highly repeatable, asset-driven execution models that leverage machine learning insights and autonomous AI playbooks to maximize delivery margins. ### Sales & GTM Integration Strategic Commercial Partnership Partner directly with regional Sales, Customer Success leadership, and GTM executives to ensure delivery readiness dynamically matches fast-paced deal motions and enterprise customer expectations. ### Deal Architecture & Risk Mitigation Advise on strategic, marquee, and complex enterprise deals by providing expert guidance on technical feasibility, scoping precision, risk mitigation, and delivery architecture. ### Field-to-Product Feedback Loop Systematically capture and synthesize theater-specific insights, product limitations, and regional constraints into structured, data-driven telemetry for Global COE and Product/Engineering teams to shape the future product roadmap Performance, Capacity & Risk Management Proactive Risk Management: Maintain deep, data-driven visibility into regional capacity, market demand, and delivery risks; preemptively resolve bottlenecks, skill shortages, and scalability challenges. ### AI Readiness & Enablement Spearhead the continuous enablement of field teams, ensuring PS, CS, and partner organizations are fully certified, equipped, and confident to execute new product features, service offerings, and advanced toolsets. ### Operational KPIs Establish and track metrics around delivery quality, methodology adherence, time-to-value, and customer satisfaction within the theater. ### What You Will Influence Global COE Evolution The design, prioritizations, and strategic direction of the Global COE's foundational methodology. ### Product Engineering Roadmap Future product capabilities and GTM packaging based on strategic field telemetry and customer friction points. ### Investment & Headcount Strategy Long-term resource allocation, investment priorities, and headcount planning based on regional demand and scalability constraints. ### Your Experience Transformational Services Leadership: 10+ years of experience leading large-scale transformational initiatives within enterprise Professional Services, Management Consulting, or Customer Success organizations. A proven track record of modernizing global service delivery models is essential. ### Strategic Operations & High-Growth Scale 5+ years of experience steering enterprise-wide orchestration, strategic operations, business transformation, or executive advisory functions within a high-growth cybersecurity, cloud provider (AWS/Azure/GCP), or enterprise SaaS company. ### Executive Stakeholder Management Exceptional capability to influence, build consensus, and drive massive organizational change across disparate executive teams spanning Product, Engineering, Sales, and Services. ### AI & Security Automation Proficiency Solid understanding of how machine learning and Generative AI (GenAI) intersect with security operations. Candidates should possess a practical grasp of AI-driven SecOps (e.g., Cortex XSIAM), automated triage/incident orchestration, and the unique security governance/risks associated with safeguarding enterprise LLM deployments. ### Framework Architecture Proven success building, scaling, and optimizing delivery methodologies, operational governance models, maturity frameworks, and KPIs within complex, matrixed global organizations. ### C-Suite Communication Skills Stellar verbal, written, and presentation skills, with a demonstrated ability to translate highly complex technical, architectural strategies into clear, actionable operational plans for both technical engineers and C-suite audiences. ### Domain & Platform Expertise Deep technical literacy in modern cybersecurity architectures.
