About the role
Lead Compute Deployment
Responsibilities
Lead compute deployment across sites: the team and process taking GPU nodes from dock to validated clusters.
Own the compute deployment schedule per hall: thousands of nodes racked, imaged, burned in, and validated in weeks.
Build the bring-up factory: automation and crew workflows that scale across parallel sites.
Hold the validation bar: no cluster hands to production without proving its performance.
Turn empty data halls into serving GPUs in weeks. Deployment owns everything between construction handover and customer-ready compute: racks, fabric, and validation at hundreds of megawatts per site.
Stand up gigawatts a year, hundreds of megawatts at a time. Data halls go from construction handover to serving GPUs in weeks, across multiple sites at once.
Deploy 10GW with software, not headcount. Bring-up, validation, and handoff run on tooling the team builds, so the hundredth data hall deploys faster than the first instead of needing a hundred times the people.
Requirements
Led compute or server deployment at data center scale.
Built bring-up processes that cut deployment time by a large factor.
Managed mixed teams of engineers and technicians.
Refused to hand over hardware that didn't pass, under real pressure.
Nice-to-Haves
GPU clusters.
Deployment automation.
HPC acceptance testing.
Vendor integration programs.

Lead physical infrastructure deployment teams turning finished data halls into racked, cabled, and validated GPU-serving compute at hundreds of megawatts per site. Requires proven experience leading large contractor workforces, hitting aggressive rack-and-cable schedules, and building deployment tracking tooling.
