Responsibilities

We're looking for a Delivery Director, Capacity Programs for our on-premises data center builds and neo cloud (GPU cloud) delivery programs. This is a high-visibility, execution-critical role sitting at the intersection of infrastructure engineering, capacity planning, vendor/partner management, and customer delivery.
Own delivery of on-prem infrastructure builds — colocation expansions, power/cooling readiness, rack-and-stack, network fabric bring-up, and hardware acceptance testing — coordinating across colo providers and partners, network engineering, hardware ops, and vendor teams.
Drive neo cloud delivery programs — manage capacity delivery from GPU cloud and neo cloud partners (e.g., colocation/bare-metal/GPU cloud providers), including contract milestones, capacity ramps, SLAs, and go-live readiness.
Build and maintain master delivery schedules across concurrent, multi-site, multi-vendor programs, integrating power/shell timelines, hardware lead times, logistics, and software/platform readiness into a single critical path.
Manage cross-functional stakeholders — engineering, data center operations, procurement, finance, legal, and executive leadership — translating technical dependencies into clear program status, risks, and decisions.
Own vendor and partner relationships for infrastructure delivery, including neo cloud providers, colocation partners, hardware OEMs, and logistics/installation contractors; hold partners accountable to contractual delivery commitments.
Run risk and dependency management — identify critical path risks (power availability, hardware lead times, permitting, supply chain), drive mitigation, and escalate proactively rather than reactively.
Establish delivery governance — standardized program frameworks, milestone definitions, RAID logs, capacity tracking, and reporting cadences (weekly ops reviews, executive/board-level updates).
Drive capacity planning alignment — partner with demand/capacity planning teams to ensure delivery timelines match business commitments (customer contracts, internal growth targets).
Lead post-mortems and continuous improvement — after major builds or delivery milestones, drive retrospectives that improve cost, speed, and predictability of future builds.
