He also held various strategic design and consulting roles at OKI and Extreme Networks during the course of his career.

“Joe will prove instrumental as a key member of our regional systems engineering team in helping customers leverage digital transformation to their advantage, through moving to New IP network architectures that are open, agile, and vendor-agnostic,"said Tezel.

“The traditional way of networking has been shown to be futile with legacy networks impeding programmability and automation. Helping customers solve their business problems and gain a competitive advantage will be an important mandate for me going forward," said Poehls.
