We’re looking for a Doer — someone who lives and breathes the site. This role sits at the center of our GPU cluster deployments: bootstrapping clusters, using low-level designs (LLDs) as the reference to check that cabling and fit-out are going to plan on the floor, and unblocking whatever stands between the plan and a working, delivered site.
You’ll carry technical credibility into design and readiness reviews, hold the line when trade-offs need to be made between engineering, operations, and the customer, and be the person senior stakeholders trust when a deployment is going sideways. You’re warm and approachable on the floor, but authoritative when it counts — the kind of person trade vendors and engineers genuinely want to work with.
This is not a desk job. You’ll be on the ground through construction and practically living onsite during active deployment.
Doers. You don’t manage the site from a dashboard — you’re on the floor.
Warm, compassionate, yet authoritative. People follow you because they trust you, not because of your title.
Trusted under pressure. When a delivery is going wrong, you’re the calm, honest voice in the room.
Builders of people. You grow talent around you and take real satisfaction in their success.
Comfortable with ambiguity at scale. You can hold multiple concurrent deployments in your head at once and still see the patterns across them.

Proven experience as an onsite Technical Program Manager, deployment lead, or equivalent role in data center construction, cluster bootstrapping, or large-scale infrastructure rollout
Hands-on knowledge of reading and applying LLDs, plus cabling and fit-out processes, to verify onsite work against plan
Track record of managing multiple concurrent, complex deployments
Demonstrated ability to bring real technical credibility to readiness reviews
Experience managing vendor relationships and resolving underperformance
Strong executive communication skills — able to turn technical complexity into clear, decision-ready narratives
Willingness and ability to travel extensively and be onsite for extended periods during active deployment phases
Travel is mandatory for this role.
