What they’re looking for

  • Have 8+ years of experience in technical program management, operations program management, infrastructure delivery, operations transformation, or a comparable role in a complex technical environment.
  • Have led end-to-end software or systems implementations for an operations organization, including workflow discovery, requirements, data models, integrations, testing, rollout, adoption, and continuous improvement.
  • Are fluent with dashboards, KPIs, operational data, and executive reporting; you can turn incomplete inputs into clear definitions, trusted metrics, and decisions.
  • Have built governance mechanisms that work in practice: goal-setting, operating reviews, intake and prioritization, risk and issue management, action tracking, decision logs, and escalation.
  • Bring experience with data centers, construction, commissioning, infrastructure operations, cloud, manufacturing, or another mission-critical physical-infrastructure environment.
  • Can influence across senior leaders, technical DRIs, vendors, and partner organizations without relying on direct authority, and communicate clearly from working-team detail to executive summary.
  • Are comfortable navigating ambiguity, changing ownership boundaries, urgent timelines, and high operational stakes while maintaining rigor and momentum.
  • Hold a bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Information Systems, Construction Management, Operations Management, Business, or an equivalent combination of education and practical experience.
  • Experience with hyperscale or AI infrastructure, including 1P, 3P, colocation, or CSP delivery models.
  • Familiarity with project controls, scheduling, operational readiness, commissioning, capacity acceptance, SLA/MTTR reporting, incident or ticketing workflows, and handover governance.
  • Technical fluency with APIs, integration patterns, BI/reporting tools, workflow platforms, data quality controls, and automation; SQL or equivalent analytical skills are a plus.
  • Experience managing vendors, consultants, or embedded support resources and converting ad hoc support into repeatable operating capability.
