We’re also looking for someone eager to proactively learn and master emerging technologies at the forefront of Citrix innovation, ready to roll up their sleeves in a lab environment.
Beyond project execution, you’ll be a recognized expert in consulting methodologies, capable of leading multiple simultaneous engagements and initiatives. You’ll also significantly contribute to our team’s growth through coaching and knowledge sharing. We encourage you to identify opportunities for supporting mentorship, training, industry events, and the Citrix Community, helping to shape leading practices and promote new solutions in the field.
