Job Description
We are seeking an experienced Technical Project Manager to spearhead the strategy, design vetting, and end-to-end delivery of our next-generation, high-density AI Data Center footprint. In this role, you will bridge the gap between abstract capacity needs and physical execution, serving as the primary orchestrator for complex, high-capacity GPU cluster deployments.
You will lead pre-approval technical vetting (evaluating space, power, cooling, and network floor plans before site acquisition) and take ownership of the full deployment lifecycle through to operational handoff.
Proactive and a self-starter, you must be highly organized with the ability to manage competing priorities. Driven and motivated, you can operate both autonomously and in a collaborative team environment, coordinating across multiple internal groups and external vendors to deliver comprehensive high-capacity GPU cluster deployments.
Technical Design & Floorplan Vetting:
Review, design, and vet floor plans
Create High-Level Designs
Plan power distributions and cooling architectures.
Work alongside engineering and vendor partners prior to purchasing or leasing data center space.
Infrastructure Planning:
Conduct technical diligence on data center facilities.
Validate that physical infrastructure (power redundancy, floor loading, high-density liquid/air cooling capabilities) aligns with massive AI/GPU compute requirements (multi-MW deployments, liquid-cooled racks at 100kW+, NVIDIA clusters).
End-to-End Project Ownership:
Manage the complete project lifecycle for high-capacity GPU cluster deployments.
Drive progress from pre-approval site vetting through infrastructure design, physical implementation, cabling, commissioning, documentation, and final operational handoff.
Cross-Functional Coordination:
Serve as the central hub aligning Data Center operators, Network Engineering, Hardware Systems, Facilities, Procurement, and Enterprise IT teams around unified goals and timelines.
Milestone & Progress Tracking:
Establish critical paths, schedule dependencies, and project milestones.
Actively monitor progress while holding internal teams and external vendors accountable for updates.
Risk Management & Quality Control:
Proactively identify spatial, power, or logistical constraints early in the planning process.
Mitigate post-procurement delays, budget overruns, and technical bottlenecks.
Reporting & Governance:
Maintain accurate project documentation, inventory tracking, and transparent status reporting for executive leadership and stakeholders.
Technical knowledge and a proven track record delivering complex hardware infrastructure or data center engineering projects.
5+ years of technical project management experience in high-density or infrastructure environments.
Strong familiarity with DC facility design, power delivery systems, thermal management, and spatial planning for high-density environments.
Direct experience or strong foundational understanding of high-density AI cluster architectures.
Ability to read, interpret, and refine CAD drawings, as well as create rack elevations, single-line diagrams, and floor plans.
Demonstrated ability to drive accountability across technical, engineering, and third-party vendor teams.
Strong hands-on proficiency with modern project management software (Jira, Confluence).
Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with a track record of distilling technical complexities into concise updates for leadership.
