Microsoft veteran Cesar Cernuda joins NetApp as President
By MYBRANDBOOK
NetApp has announced the appointment of Cesar Cernuda as President of NetApp, reporting to CEO George Kurian, effective in July. He will lead our global go-to-market operations spanning sales, marketing, services, and support. Cernuda joins NetApp from Microsoft, where he was President of Microsoft Latin America and Corporate Vice President of Microsoft Corporation. He brings with him extensive experience in leading business transformation, building diverse, high-performing teams, and driving a successful cloud business. In his role as president, Cernuda will continue to evolve the NetApp go-to-market strategy and organization to accelerate growth by transforming how we approach the changing customer landscape and capture new growth opportunities, particularly in cloud.
George Kurian, Chief Executive Officer, comments, “As we look to accelerate our cloud and software strategy, Cesar’s experience in successfully transforming large global organizations will strengthen NetApp’s position as a leader in cloud data services and drive value for our shareholders. I’m excited to welcome a leader of his caliber. I look forward to him bringing to the team his passion for strong results, his commitment to building diverse, high-performing teams, and his experience in business transformation as we continue to evolve our go-to-market strategy to reflect the changing customer landscape.”
According to Cernuda, “I believe NetApp will become a key partner in every organization’s data strategy, and I am looking forward to being a part of it. The key hyperscale public cloud vendors have bet on NetApp technology to support them with their customer offerings, and the APAC region continues to be a front runner in the adoption and use of cloud technology. During my three years as a leader in Asia Pacific, I learned from customers and partners how to best help them not only deploy but fully utilize the technology. I am thrilled with the opportunity to bring that knowledge to NetApp to help and support customers and partners manage and protect one of their most important assets— their data.”
Before joining NetApp, Cernuda served as President of Microsoft Latin America and Corporate Vice President of Microsoft Corporation, where he was responsible for all of Microsoft’s products, services, and support offerings across Latin America, and for accelerating the company’s transformation for the mobile-first, cloud-first era.
