New role

I’m pleased to say that on Monday I’ll be starting a new role. While I’ve worked closely with EMC for many a year as a partner, and more recently in a subcontracting position, come Monday that’ll all be changing…

…I’m joining EMC. I’ll be working in the Data Protection Solutions group as a sales engineer.

I’ve got to say (and not just because people from EMC will no doubt see this!) that I’m really looking forward to this role. This will allow me more so than ever before to look holistically at the entire data protection spectrum. While I’ve always had an eye on the bigger picture of data protection, enterprise backup has always been the driving activity I’ve focused on. More so than that, EMC is one of only a very small handful of vendors I’ve ever wanted to work for (and one of the other vendors I wanted to work for was Legato, so you might say I’m achieving two life goals with just one job) – so I’m going to be revved up from the start.

I’ll be continuing this blog, but with a broader exposure to the entire data protection suite I’ll be working with at EMC, expect to see more coverage on those integration points, too.

It’ll be a blast!
