You will be comfortable discussing FPGA and SoC architectures with engineering teams, shaping value propositions with product and technical marketing, and building executable account plans with Field Sales and Field Applications Engineering. The role has particular relevance to industrial automation, robotics, machine vision, edge AI, embedded networking and other high-value embedded applications. Success requires a business-development mindset: creating demand, opening doors, developing partners, qualifying opportunities and converting technical engagement into design wins and long-term revenue.

Translate customer requirements into actionable opportunity plans, including the right Altera device family, IP, software, development tools, reference designs, partners and technical resources. Drive technical and business workshops, executive briefings, proof-of-concept discussions, demonstrations, design reviews and follow-up actions. Create and maintain account plans, opportunity maps, pipeline reviews, engagement plans and clear next steps with owners and dates. Identify gaps in Altera’s product, IP, software, documentation or enablement portfolio and bring prioritized customer feedback back to the appropriate teams. Build partner-led routes to market with distributors, design houses, IP providers, embedded-computing companies, robotics specialists and industrial-automation ecosystems. Support competitive displacement and design-win campaigns by articulating differentiated value around performance, power, flexibility, time to market, lifecycle, safety, security and total cost of ownership. Develop customer-ready content such as solution briefs, business cases, presentations, use-case narratives and technical positioning. Represent Altera at customer visits, partner meetings, industry events, technical workshops and trade shows across EMEA. Track results and communicate progress against pipeline creation, design wins, revenue, customer engagement and partner-development goals.
