Solutions Engineer - ORANGE COUNTY

Become an AI-First Solutions Leader

This Irvine-based role at Cisco redefines the traditional pre-sales engineer as a 'vibe-first' technical strategist. You will co-manage a regional business territory, acting as a technical consultant who bridges the gap between complex network infrastructure and real-world business value. Rather than just following old playbooks, you are expected to operate with the mindset of a startup founder, driving growth through technical excellence and strategic relationships.

The Vibe Coding Advantage

The standout feature of this position is the integration of modern AI tools into the daily workflow. You won't just talk about AI; you will use vibe coding and custom agents to build proof-of-concept applications and automate technical discovery. By leveraging Cisco’s massive portfolio—ranging from security to observability—you’ll demonstrate how agentic workflows can transform enterprise operations.

Growth and Impact

• Modern Workflow: Use LLMs and agentic AI to accelerate technical deliverables like Bill of Materials (BoMs) and Architectural Roadmaps.
• Strategic Ownership: Partner with Account Executives to drive territory revenue and enterprise digital transformations.
• Technical Breadth: Master a tech stack that includes AI Infrastructure, Security protocols, and Cloud Architecture.

Ideal candidates bring at least five years of experience in solutions architecture and a deep curiosity for emerging AI platforms. Cisco provides a high-compensation environment where you can apply vibe-coding techniques at a global scale within a Fortune 100 company.
