VP/Field CTO, GTM - Telecommunications

VP/Field CTO, GTM - Telecommunications About the Role As a Field CTO – Telecommunications , you will be the architect of NewRocket's growth strategy in the telco sector — shaping how we go to market, what we offer, and how we win. You will define and build industry-specific offerings grounded in the real business process challenges facing telecommunications operators, and partner with Product Marketing to translate those offerings into pipeline-generating programs that elevate NewRocket's presence in the industry. This is a strategic, senior, client-facing role that combines industry thought leadership, offering development, and executive-level client engagement. You will be the person who ensures NewRocket has a compelling, differentiated point of view in telecommunications — spanning AI-powered industry solutions and targeted data offerings — and that it consistently drives top-of-funnel activity and competitive wins.

Architect AI Industry Solutions Design and architect AI-powered solutions purpose-built for the telecommunications industry — including agentic AI workflows, predictive operations, intelligent process automation, and AI-assisted customer and network management. Define how AI capabilities map to specific telco business processes — for example, AI-driven fault prediction and resolution in network operations, intelligent order fallout management in service fulfillment, dynamic resource reassignment in field operations.

Customer & product data: subscriber profiles, product catalog structures, service configurations, and entitlement data. Operational data: trouble ticket histories, SLA breach records, workforce management data, and field service records.
