About the Role

The Principal Technical Program Manager, AI Physical Deployment, is a senior individual contributor responsible for driving project delivery and execution with our data center and physical deployment partners. In this hands-on leadership role, you will own key RFx processes, partner with internal cross-functional teams on contracts, drive cost efficiency initiatives, and serve as a primary escalation point for complex technical and business challenges. Acting as a strategic bridge between internal stakeholders and external partners, you will navigate vendor relationships and ensure seamless alignment to achieve core business objectives.

You will partner closely with Data Center Development, Design & Construction, Engineering, Power & Utilities, Procurement, Supply Chain, Finance, Legal, Commercial, Security, Network, Operations, Project Controls, and Executive Leadership to create a single operating rhythm across complex infrastructure programs. You will be accountable for driving internal alignment, facilitating decision-making, removing blockers, and ensuring teams are coordinated from planning through operational readiness.

The ideal candidate has deep, hands-on experience running strategic programs in data center infrastructure, networking, AI, construction, or mission-critical environments, and has chosen depth of craft over people management. You should be highly effective at influencing without authority, aligning senior stakeholders, translating complexity into clear decisions, and setting the delivery, governance, and controls standards others follow.

What You'll be Doing

Internal Stakeholder Engagement & Alignment

• Act as the central coordination and alignment point across internal and external teams involved in data center infrastructure delivery.
• Build programs from ambiguous ideas and drive real value (financial, timeline, or risk avoidance). From idea to execution, delivery must be in the forefront of your mind.
