About the role
Role overview
Technical Program Manager (Fully Remote, United States)
Own end-to-end delivery of data centre network infrastructure programmes—from initial planning through production handoff. Coordinate across network engineering, construction, supply chain/logistics, security, and operations to ensure deployments land on time, on spec, and ready to operate.
The programmes you will drive include the physical foundation for modern AI and cloud infrastructure.
Responsibilities
- Own end-to-end programme delivery across data centre network deployments (new builds, retrofits, rack refresh, capacity augments, and decommissioning)
- Create and manage the programme plan: milestones, critical path, and stakeholder accountability
- Translate strategic roadmaps into executable delivery plans
- Convert a 12-month supply execution plan into weekly operating execution across vendors, engineers, and operations teams
- Drive hardware and supply chain accountability
- Ensure BOMs are ordered correctly and on time
- Track deliveries to site
- Identify long-lead procurement risks early
- Manage cross-functional dependencies across network engineering, construction, logistics, security, and operations
- Run programme governance and reporting
- Status decks, risk registers, executive reporting, and lessons learned reviews
- Ensure leadership is never surprised by programme progress
Requirements
- Proven programme management rigor in complex infrastructure environments
- Experience leading multi-workstream programmes with hard deadlines and ambiguity (decisions under pressure without schedule slippage)
- Hands-on experience managing data centre network infrastructure deployments (design → construction → commissioning → operational handoff)
- Technical fluency in network infrastructure
- Ability to lead conversations on DC fabric, switching architecture, cabling standards, and network topology readiness
- Know what can fail and how to prevent it
- Hardware/BOM procurement management experience at scale (lead times, delivery coordination, ensuring correct hardware arrives when needed)
- Vendor and contractor accountability experience in multi-vendor critical path environments
- Keep external partners aligned and escalate appropriately
- Risk identification and programme health management
- Maintain a live risk register
- Proactively surface issues and run lessons learned reviews that improve future programmes
Nice to haves
- Prior experience managing network infrastructure deployments inside a hyperscale environment
