Channel Account Manager, CDW

As a member of the Cisco Meraki community, you'll quickly learn the phrase 'Meraki Magic' - a term we use to describe the intangible yet palpable feeling of our spirited culture. Employees have described 'Meraki Magic' as "doing things in a way that have never been done before" and "the people". The magic that Merakians bring to the table is woven into the fabric of our unique culture and reflected in both our products and values.

Our four core values: 'care deeply', 'everybody in', 'simplify everything', and 'be brave', shape our innovative and welcoming work culture. As a leader in cloud-managed IT, Cisco Meraki offers employees the opportunity to become bold future-shapers at the forefront of technology.
