As we scale beyond our first sites, you'll focus on accelerating construction and deployment, building repeatable playbooks, and driving continuous improvement across our growing footprint.
Responsibilities:
- Manage and develop the DC infrastructure TPM team; hire and build out the function as we scale

- Drive construction-to-production execution across multiple sites, coordinating with partners, contractors, and internal teams
- Own overall schedule tracking, risk identification, and mitigation; creating clear visibility for leadership
- Align with energy and location strategy and support site selection and due diligence criteria to facilitate scaling well in advance of aggressive compute demand
- Manage long pole dependencies and long-lead time development & procurement across a dynamically changing global marketplace
- Partner with DC and Compute teams to drive handover criteria between site completion, equipment deployment, and operations
- Coordinate with Infrastructure, Security, and Compliance teams on evolving requirements; versioning, optimization, and expansion across sites
- Drive partner accountability on contractual milestones and commercial commitments
- Coordinate equipment delivery and manage vendor accountability on schedules; tracking production and shipping milestones while maintaining productive partnerships
- Build repeatable processes and playbooks that scale across multiple concurrent site deployments
- Travel (20%) to sites to validate progress and build contractor relationships
You may be a good fit if you:
- Have 7+ years in data center construction, operations, or infrastructure program management at hyperscale or critical infrastructure companies
- Have management experience building and leading TPM or program management teams
- Have led multi-site infrastructure programs with compressed timelines and complex cross-functional dependencies among multiple partners and vendors
