We are Outshift at Cisco. We are chartered to build the next new business for Cisco. We take Cisco into new markets, and especially towards new personas-both buyer and user.
Like building a startup from the ground up, we believe it's all about having an entrepreneurial approach. We take ideas from astonishing thought to a product that solves a critical need, then deliver an experience that delights users and customers. Outshift is about innovation. We look from 12 months out to five years in the future, wearing multiple hats, failing and learning fast, challenging assumptions and finding new ways of solving problems. Driving form from ambiguity. It's about creativity. We are looking for entrepreneurs and problem solvers, whether as designers & marketers, product-led growth experts, business development, SDRs, or customer success specialists. We're always looking for product managers, data scientists, and ML engineers, too.
Yes, we are building the next set of startups with the support of a trusted name like Cisco. Where else will you get to do this? We are Outshift at Cisco. We run bold, we run agile, and we run ambitious. Come create with us.

Who You'll Work WithThe Outshift team is a highly visible group within Cisco focused on developing new market opportunities. We collaborate with many different organizations both within Cisco as well as outside of Cisco. Teams that you'll engage with are internal Marketing, Product, Customer Success, Engineering as well as other Cisco Generalist Sellers & Technology Overlay Sales teams. Externally, you will work with Customers & Partners as well as some Technology partners & Cloud Service Providers.
What You'll DoWe are seeking a BDR/SDR Manager that can successfully interface both internally & externally with Cisco Account Managers and external customers to build a pipeline of qualified sales opportunities.
In this role, you'll be working with our Outshift Sales teams to research and build pipeline. In this highly prized role, excellent communications skills and the ability to quickly assess customer opportunities will be critical to your success. We're looking for professionals with strong organizational and follow-up skills who work well in a team environment. Prior lead generation or sales prospecting experience working with the North American / EMEA markets will enhance your candidacy for this role. If this sounds like the type of environment in which you thrive, then we want to talk to you.
Primary Responsibilities#WeAreCisco, where each person is unique, but we bring our talents to work as a team and make a difference powering an inclusive future for all.
We embrace digital, and help our customers implement change in their digital businesses. Some may think we're "old" (36 years strong) and only about hardware, but we're also a software company. And a security company. We even invented an intuitive network that adapts, predicts, learns and protects. No other company can do what we do - you can't put us in a box.
But "Digital Transformation" is an empty buzz phrase without a culture that allows for innovation, creativity, and yes, even failure (if you learn from it.)
Day to day, we focus on the give and take. We give our best, give our egos a break, and give of ourselves (because giving back is built into our DNA.) We take accountability, bold steps, and take difference to heart. Because without diversity of thought and a dedication to equality for all, there is no moving forward.
So, you have colorful hair? Don't care. Tattoos? Show off your ink. Like polka dots? That's cool. Pop culture geek? Many of us are. Passion for technology and world changing? Be you, with us!
And on top of all that - Cisco has been named #1 Best Company to Work for in the U.S. by Fortune and Great Place to Work - for the second year in a row! With this honor, we join Cisco teams in 15 countries that are currently holding the title of #1 Best Workplace!
