  • Industry & Infrastructure Fluency: Strong familiarity with modern data center architecture, storage industry trends, cloud computing models, and platform economics.
  • Communication & Motivation: Outstanding relationship-building skills, high emotional intelligence, and a strong intrinsic motivation to achieve growth within a high-performance team.
  • Language: Business fluency in both French and English is required.
  • Location: This is an in-office position. You will be expected to work from our Paris office in compliance with company policy.
