This is not a mature territory with an inherited pipeline — it’s a new market, a small team, and an open brief. You’ll identify the customers, build the relationships, bring the right internal teams to the table, and help shape the approach as the market develops.
Job Summary
Sovereign AI is driving one of the largest infrastructure buildouts Europe has seen since the hyperscale wave. Entrepreneurs are building GPU-dense data centers that didn’t exist 18 months ago.
Many of these players haven’t chosen a storage partner yet — they’re making foundational decisions now that will shape their architectures for years. This role puts you at the centre of that market! NetApp is investing in the neocloud and sovereign-cloud segment as a strategic growth area.
This is a business development position focused on new customer acquisition — not traditional account management. You’ll proactively identify and build relationships with sovereign AI clouds, neoclouds, and entrepreneur‑led AI data center builders across Europe.
What you’ll do Identify and pursue new business opportunities in the neocloud and sovereign-cloud ecosystem — tracking external signals (government subsidies, data center planning applications, GPU procurement patterns, executive moves, financing rounds) and building pipeline from the ground up.
