Tosha Zeitlin

IT VP of Program Management Office, DISH Network

Strengthening support systems to drive innovation

“There isn’t an area of the company where IT does not play a role,” Zeitlin said. “Our partnership becomes the glue that pulls it all together.” She oversees the business partnership, finance and accounting, vendor management, project management and quality assurance teams, which coordinate to help shape DISH’s future. “We support everything from onboarding new team members to implementing new wireless systems.” To effectively provide support, Zeitlin’s team uses tools such as ServiceNow Project Portfolio Manager, Rally and Smartsheet.

The world is watching us and it is an extremely exciting time to not only be part of DISH’s journey but to be integral in its success.

Making innovative contributions that evolve an industry

Pathan oversees the architecture direction, best practices and engineering deliverables at DISH Technologies (DT). As the engineering arm for DISH, the DT team works on technologies such as blockchain, streaming, hardware engineering and immersive media experiences for DISH’s PayTV services. “The most exciting aspect at DT is the ability to create impactful contributions for the industry by developing web-scale applications and differentiated experiences,” Pathan said. “Each team member is regularly encouraged to work on innovative ideas and technologies, patenting them in the process.”

We are developing capabilities on the blockchain to provide differentiated experiences to our customers, and the impact of this project is readily visible and quantifiable.

Brian Mengwasser

Vice President, Head of MarketPlace & App Design, DISH Wireless

Leading the way with cloud-native networks

DISH Wireless is evolving the way the world communicates by leveraging cloud-native networks. “What attracted me to DISH was the ambitious nature of what we’re trying to do here,” said Mengwasser. “It’s the most complicated cloud project in history.” The team works with enterprise customers to innovate their operations, whether that entails implementing connected concierge services for travelers or managing a fleet of intelligent vehicles.

There’s a lot that we can do with the opportunity in front of us.

What are some social events your company does?

At our DISH Grand Central location, we strive to uphold a strong culture! We have a Bureau of Serious fun that consists of a group of people who plan and host potlucks, trivia challenges, and a variety of monthly events. We even started a walking club that takes place on Friday afternoon during the lunch hour!

Ali

Experience Manager, DISH Grand Central

What projects are you most excited about?

One exciting new project we are working on is the blockchain initiative that we are building. We are moving way beyond just cryptocurrency. The blockchain capabilities we are building will create entirely new business models and services that enable fast, on-the-fly, secure, and verifiable access to our spectrum.

William

Senior IT Manager

How has your career grown since starting at the company?

Throughout my 7 years with DISH, I have taken advantage of DISH’s #1 benefit: Opportunity. Starting my career in Indirect Sales and then transitioning into HR Recruiting has led me to my passion for Recruitment Operations where I continue to grow my expertise and make a difference in people’s lives.

Whitney

Recruiting Operations Manager

How do you empower your team to be more creative?

We promote an empowered team product structure, meaning we don't give our team a product to build. We give them a problem to solve. How they choose to solve that problem is derived from discovery, talking to customers, and understanding how to build a solution that will work for the customer. It's not about pushing out feature after feature.

Seth

SVP, Sling Product and Operations

What is your vision for the company?

At DISH, we are building something that has never been built before, to be part of history and change the way humans and things connect. I wanted to lead teams that push themselves and each other to be better every day. DISH is going to change communications, not just for subscribers but for businesses across the nation.
