About the role
Calix is building a new business model with a strategic growth initiative focused on secure, high-performance network experiences for managed environments. This new business model expands beyond the traditional broadband service provider motion to include Managed Service Providers (MSPs), Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs), property and site operators. It brings together new industry targets, solutions, commercial strategies, partner relationships, and go-to-market motions.
The Subscriber Solutions Manager (SSM), Managed Business will lead customer-facing sales and solution engagement with an initial emphasis on MSPs. SmartMDU, Calix’s cloud-managed platform for delivering secure, multi-tenant connectivity, operational automation, and digital experiences across managed properties, represents the first offering for the new business model.
SmartMDU establishes Calix’s initial presence in this market while providing valuable customer insights, operational learnings, and go-to-market validation. It is the first in a planned portfolio of purpose-built platforms, software solutions, and appliances designed to help managed service providers deliver differentiated experiences and outcomes within complex managed environments.
This role will help customers realize value from today’s solutions while influencing the evolution and expansion of Calix’s next generation of managed business offerings.
This role blends consultative selling, technical fluency, market development, and value-based engagement. The successful candidate will uncover customer business requirements, shape repeatable go-to-market motions, develop trusted executive relationships, and translate Calix capabilities into measurable operational, guest, property, and financial outcomes.

Create repeatable sales plays, qualification criteria, enablement assets, and best practices that help Calix scale the managed business motion across customer segments and future verticals.
