Why a CV for this job?
- They see what they asked for, first. Your experience that matches the ad leads, in the ad's own words, so someone skimming finds it in seconds.
- It gets past the software. Many larger employers use software that ranks CVs by how closely they match the ad, often before anyone reads them.
- In the language of the ad. An ad written in Spanish gets a CV in Spanish, even when yours is in Portuguese.
- Your facts, nothing invented. Your own experience, reordered and reworded. What the ad wants and your CV does not show is listed for you to add, only if it is true. You check it before you send it.
About the role
We are looking for an early-career Support Specialist to join our Global Sales Engineering team and support the end-to-end preparation, coordination, and maintenance of customer-facing technical response content. In this role, you will help respond to RFPs, RFIs, DDQs, security questionnaires, tenders, proposals, and related customer requests by working with approved content, internal knowledge sources, and subject matter experts across the business.

This is a primarily remote role based in Manila, Philippines, with occasional in-office attendance required for business needs, training, team meetings, leadership requests, or company policy.
