AireSpring Expands Its Solutions Engineering Leadership Team

CLEARWATER, FL- May 08, 2024 AireSpring is pleased to announce that Stephen Sigmon has joined the team as the new Vice President of Solutions Engineering. Stephen brings over 25 years of experience to the role, having served most recently in various leadership capacities at Windstream, and as Director of Sales Engineering at Fusion (and at Birch Communications prior to its acquisition by Fusion).

Stephen began his career as a Network Design Engineer/Crew Manager at NetCom International, contributing to nationwide implementation of structured cabling, wireless networks, and point-to-point wireless T1 circuits. After leaving that position, Stephen spent 12 years at Cypress Communications, first in network and sales engineering roles and later as Director of Sales Engineering and Director of Implementation Services. While at Cypress Communications, Stephen helped create one of the first hosted platforms—a NorTel-based platform that was a precursor to unified communications as a service (UCaaS).

Stephen then moved to Cbeyond as Director, Design Engineering, where his key accomplishments included successful launches of Cisco Meraki managed network products, Fortinet firewalls, and VeloCloud (VMware by Broadcom) SD-WAN solutions, as well as the implementation of a dozen executive business centers (EBCs) across the United States.

“I’m excited to be here at AireSpring. The leadership and the team as a whole all have a passion for the customer that is rarely seen in this industry these days,” stated Stephen. “The fact that we have a publicly available escalation list that goes all the way up to CEO is a huge benefit to our partners and their customers, and really speaks to the commitment we have to providing the best customer service experience possible.”

“We’re thrilled to welcome Stephen to Team AireSpring,” stated AireSpring SVP Solutions Engineering Mike Chase. “His leadership skills, network and sales engineering knowledge, and depth of experience in the industry will be key in helping AireSpring continue to provide flawless implementation and support to multi-location enterprises operating worldwide.”
