Job Description
This is a mission-critical infrastructure deployment role supporting active data center environments where safety, uptime, security, and execution quality are essential.
Key Responsibilities
- As Rack Deployment Manager, you will lead rack deployment readiness and execution for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure’s mission-critical data center environments. This senior individual contributor role is accountable for converting capacity plans and site readiness inputs into safe, predictable rack deployment outcomes across new builds, expansions, retrofits, and high-priority capacity programs.
- You will partner closely with Site Deployment, Site Readiness, Data Center Operations, Network, Capacity, Construction, Commissioning, Supply Chain, Engineering, Security, and vendor teams to ensure rack-level infrastructure is planned, staged, installed, cabled, energized, validated, documented, and handed off to operations with disciplined execution and minimal operational risk.
- This role requires strong operational judgment, technical credibility, schedule discipline, and the ability to influence cross-functional teams without direct authority. The Rack Deployment Manager drives deployment mechanisms, readiness gates, issue resolution, and continuous improvement so OCI can scale rack deployment throughput while maintaining safety, quality, security, and uptime expectations.
- Own rack deployment planning and execution across assigned sites, campuses, regions, or strategic capacity programs, with clear accountability for safety, schedule, quality, and operational handoff readiness.
- Translate capacity, network, supply chain, and site readiness inputs into executable deployment schedules, milestone plans, dependency trackers, and field execution priorities.
- Coordinate rack placement, logistics, cabling readiness, power and cooling availability, network readiness, energization sequencing, validation, and turnover activities across internal teams and deployment partners.
- Drive readiness gates covering MEP status, commissioning prerequisites, rack elevations, materials availability, labor planning, site access, security requirements, change controls, procedures, and operational acceptance criteria.
- Identify schedule, quality, safety, supply, vendor, or site-condition risks early; escalate clearly; and drive cross-functional recovery actions to protect deployment commitments.
- Support rack energization and turn-up activities by ensuring required approvals, MOPs/SOPs, communications, safeguards, rollback plans, and operational stakeholders are in place before execution.
- Develop and reinforce repeatable deployment playbooks, checklists, reporting mechanisms, and lessons-learned loops that improve deployment consistency and reduce rework across sites.
- Track and report deployment KPIs, including schedule adherence, blocker aging, deployment throughput, quality findings, rework, readiness gaps, energization progress, and turnover completeness.
- Partner with vendors, contractors, and field teams to ensure execution meets OCI standards for safety, workmanship, documentation, security, and issue closure.
- Ensure clean handoff to Data Center Operations with validated assets, complete documentation, known-risk closure, open-item ownership, escalation paths, and no unresolved latent operational risk.
Requirements
- 8+ years of experience in data center infrastructure deployment, rack integration, technical program execution, cloud capacity delivery, critical facilities operations, network deployment, construction turnover, or similarly complex infrastructure environments.
- Strong experience coordinating cross-functional deployment work in mission-critical, high-availability, large-scale, or hyperscale technical environments.
- Demonstrated ability to manage complex schedules, deployment dependencies, operational risks, vendor performance, field execution milestones, and stakeholder escalations.
- Experience supporting rack deployment, rack energization, server/network infrastructure readiness, structured cabling, supply/logistics coordination, asset readiness, or data center capacity delivery.
- Strong understanding of data center operations, including power, cooling, space, network, change control, safety, security, access control, documentation, and operational turnover expectations.
- Proven ability to operate independently, influence senior stakeholders, and drive accountability across teams without direct reporting authority.
- Bachelor’s degree in Engineering , Construction Management, Operations, Information Technology, or related field preferred; equivalent experience will be considered.
- Strong execution discipline with the ability to drive complex deployment work from planning through energization, validation, and operational handoff.
- Practical understanding of rack-level deployment dependencies, including space, power, cooling, network, cabling, logistics, commissioning status, site access, and change windows.
- Ability to build clear operating mechanisms, dashboards, trackers, and action plans that improve deployment visibility and accountability.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, including executive-ready status updates, risk summaries, escalation narratives, and decision framing.
- High attention to detail in readiness documentation, deployment sequencing, issue management, turnover packages, and quality controls.
- Strong stakeholder management across operations, engineering, construction, commissioning, network, supply chain, logistics, security, and vendor teams.
- Sound operational judgment with a bias for structured execution, zero rework, continuous improvement, and risk-managed speed.
- Experience in hyperscale data center environments, AI infrastructure, cloud infrastructure, or large-scale hardware deployment is strongly preferred.
- Familiarity with rack deployment workflows, rack elevations, power/cooling capacity checks, structured cabling standards, network turn-up, deployment quality controls, and operational acceptance criteria.
- Experience with CMMS, DCIM, asset management, ticketing, deployment tracking, change management, ERP/MRP, supply planning, or operational reporting platforms.
- Familiarity with MOPs, SOPs, EOPs, commissioning documentation, turnover packages, change controls, safety permitting, and data center security protocols.
- Project management, Lean, Six Sigma, ITIL, PMP, or similar operational/process certification is a plus.
- Experience working with third-party deployment vendors, cabling contractors, logistics providers, technical service partners, or managed service providers is preferred.
