Deploy the right technology to respond quickly to market possibilities. Join us and redefine what’s next for you.

As a Service Line Manager within GTS CIMR, you will play a pivotal role in strengthening service stability, improving customer experience, and driving proactive operational excellence. This role goes beyond resolving issues in the moment—you will focus on escalations, executive-visible cases, reducing customer impact, and eliminating root causes across complex technical environments. You will partner with cross-functional teams to turn customer experience challenges into lasting improvements that benefit both customers and the business.

What You’ll Do:

• Lead CIMR escalations and executive-visible customer complaints by driving timely resolution, coordinating stakeholder communication, and conducting root cause analysis to prevent recurrence.

• Serve as the primary escalation point for CIMR engineers, perform case audits to improve quality and consistency, and present CIMR intervention insights during weekly Factory meetings with business units across the SSD organization.

• Bring together the right technical and business stakeholders to address recurring issues with urgency, focus, and accountability.

• Ensure effective workarounds are identified, documented, and made available to incident management teams.

• Capture and communicate key learnings, best practices, and preventive recommendations to strengthen operational maturity across the organization.

• Partner with GTS delivery teams on plans of record (POR) and continuous improvement initiatives focused on enhancing customer experience, strengthening service culture, improving response times to customer communications, and building CIMR engineer capability.

What Success Looks Like:

• Deliver stable, high-quality service across the service line by aligning delivery, operations, and support teams around shared goals and clear accountability.

• Act as a trusted leader during major customer escalations, bringing structure, calm, and resolution to complex, high-impact situations.

• Anticipate systemic risks and service weaknesses before they escalate, and drive durable corrective actions across people, process, and technology.

• Improve customer and business outcomes through data-driven decision-making, operational governance, and cross-functional collaboration.

• Build capability across teams by mentoring, strengthening ownership, and enabling continuous improvement at scale.

• Ensure service performance is measured, visible, and actioned, with clear focus on customer experience, operational efficiency, and business impact.

What You Need To Bring:

• Demonstrated ability to lead service delivery in a complex, fast-moving environment with multiple priorities, stakeholders, and operational dependencies.

• Strong ability to partner across delivery, support, and operations teams to drive accountability, service performance, and continuous improvement.

• Executive-level communication, presentation, negotiation, and influencing skills, with the ability to simplify complexity, build alignment, and drive decisions across technical and non-technical audiences.

• Strategic thinker who can align process discipline with business outcomes and customer expectations.

• Ability to assess service trends, operational risks, and root causes, then translate insights into action plans and sustain improvements.

• Strong customer focus with the credibility to handle escalations, build trust, and represent the service line effectively.

• Strong presentation skills to communicate service performance, operational insights, and recommendations with clarity and confidence to leadership and cross-functional stakeholders.

• Ability to develop a holistic view of the service ecosystem and connect people, process, and performance.

Subject Matter Expertise:

• Deep understanding of enterprise infrastructure and service ecosystems, enabling confident leadership of complex technical and operational discussions.

• Working knowledge of HPE solutions and service portfolios, with the ability to translate technical capabilities into customer and business value.

• Strong grasp of core data center domains, with the ability to partner effectively across server, networking, storage, and virtualization teams.

• Experience with SFDC, ServiceNow, and support governance processes to manage escalations, track progress, and drive accountability across teams.

• Ability to apply technical and process knowledge to influence outcomes across delivery, operations, and customer-facing engagements.

Eligibility Criteria:

• Employees applying before meeting the minimum time-in-role requirement must have approval from their current manager.

• Employees are expected to inform their manager before attending an interview.

• Employees currently on a Performance Improvement Plan are not eligible to apply.

• Open to HPE badged employees.
