Verizon Business is leading the next frontier of telecom monetization by transforming our world-class 5G network into an open, programmable platform. We are seeking an entrepreneurial and strategic Senior Manager to partner directly with the Director of Network APIs to scale, grow, and drive our global Network API program. In this role, you will sit at the intersection of network engineering, product strategy, and external developer ecosystems. You will be instrumental in executing Verizon’s API monetization roadmap—leveraging global frameworks like CAMARA and the GSMA Open Gateway alliance—to unlock new B2B revenue streams in identity verification, fraud prevention, edge computing, and dynamic quality of service (QoS).
