Nutanix has announced the appointment of Faiz Shakir as Managing Director for its India business effective Monday, 15th November.
Shakir joined the company in February 2016 as sales director responsible for Southern India and Sri Lanka and worked most recently as the Enterprise & Commercial Sales director covering the whole of India.
