Gigamon, recently certified as a Great Place to Work, helps the world’s leading organizations run fast, stay secure, and innovate. We provide the industry’s first elastic visibility and analytics fabric, which closes the cloud visibility gap by enabling cloud tools to see the network and network tools to see the cloud.

In this role, you will also command and manage all aspects of early opportunity identification with federal agencies and systems integrators while partnering with sales teams as opportunities develop and approach a more tactical closing phase.
