We work on the most challenging problems, with thousands of variables impacting the supply chain — and we’re

This organization operates rapidly, building and scaling high availability data centers supporting government customers. They execute server and network equipment installations, IT hardware repairs, data center mechanical and electrical system operations and maintenance, physical security operations and logistics operations for data center build projects.
The Technical Infrastructure Program Manager will lead cross-functional and technical teams from conceptual design feasibility through requirements, budget, completed design, implementation, testing, and deployment. Along the way, you will use your judgment, negotiation skills, ability to influence without authority, analytical talent, technical aptitude, and leadership to collaborate with a diverse set of stakeholders across multiple time zones, manage capital budgets, eliminate non-value-add activity, design solutions, remove blockers, and find creative ways to accelerate project delivery.
Key job responsibilities
The successful candidate will be a strong communicator (both written and verbal), not be hindered by ambiguity or competing priorities, and be capable of understanding mechanical/electrical engineering concepts. They will bring infrastructure and network project management, data center operations, process creation and improvement, critical thinking and risk management skills to this position. They will be able to apply a variety of project management tools, methodologies and techniques for all phases of the project lifecycle and exhibit demonstrated experience in core project management disciplines including scope, schedule, budget, resources, quality and risk management, reporting and metric development/tracking.
Candidate must be comfortable managing remote project delivery teams, and possess the ability to facilitate technical whiteboard sessions to troubleshoot project implementation issues, and remove barriers to project success. The Technical Infrastructure Program Manager will be fully competent in project management and design tools and techniques for all phases of the project life cycle. Other requirements include experience with MS Office, Asana/MS Project, CAD, and architectural design software (CAD or Visio or Bluebeam).
