Providing field work to support all teams across the Golf Division of the Rain Bird Corporation. I have the pleasure and opportunity to work directly with the Product Management, Marketing, Engineering and Manufacturing teams as well as the great pleasure of supporting our customers in the field Globally. From working with Beta products to developing one off solutions to meet a project, or site constraint each day provides a new unique set of challenges across the board and across the globe. One of the recent highlights was working on the team to test and iterate the new Version 8 of Rain Bird's Cirrus Family of Central Control Software. This testing and knowledge of the product led to me being on the presentation team at the 2017 Golf Industry Show (GIS). This was a unique and insightful experience which was quite invigorating. I got to interact with so many different customers, consultants, designers, contractors and other manufacturers that it tested my knowledge of the product, application and future solutions.
