Staff Technical Program Manager, Deployments

What You'll Be Working On

New Deployments

• Own the infrastructure deployment for new sites or site expansions end-to-end: chip vendor and OEM dependencies, architecture updates, cloud foundations work, commissioning gate framework definition, and first customer cluster delivery as the success metric.
• Lead Deployment Phase 0 on the Cloud TPM side: define firmware version targets and DOCA targets before kickoff, set commissioning gate criteria, and define the DRI matrix.
• Manage compounding cross-SKU dependencies where active production programs (e.g. B200/GB300/VR) are running in parallel with capacity expansion projects, and prevent them from competing for the same Engineering pool without a plan.

Technical Leadership

• Owns real-time execution dashboards; delivers crisp, data-driven executive updates that surface decision elements without requiring follow-up.
• Governs cross-organizational dependencies without waiting for escalation authority.

Organizational Influence and TPM Function Development

• Coach more junior TPMs on technical depth, risk identification, and executive communication.
• Actively drives AI tool integration across their programs; identifies where AI materially improves program tracking, risk detection, and executive communication.

What You'll Bring to the Team

Technical Foundation

• Deep, working fluency with GPU architecture across SKU generations, firmware lifecycle (DOCA, driver stacks, BIOS/BMC), compute orchestration, SDN, storage, networking (leaf-spine topology, ZTP, fabric commissioning), and monitoring/observability.
• Direct hardware partner engagement: personal ownership of NVIDIA or OEM certification and validation timelines, not coordination feeding into someone else's relationship.
• Active daily use of AI tools to drive program-level outcomes: risk detection, dependency mapping, data analysis, and executive communication, not just personal productivity.

Program Leadership

• 10+ years as a Technical Program Manager with a track record of owning infrastructure deployment programs end-to-end at a hyperscaler, GPU cloud provider, or AI infrastructure company, ideally with direct experience in large-scale capacity expansion projects.
• Proven ability to define deployment engagement models from scratch, not just operate within existing frameworks, and make them stick across engineering organizations that didn't ask for them.
• Track record of driving cross-organizational alignment at VP/SVP level without formal authority, including building durable alignment on programs that fall in the cracks between teams.
• Exceptional written and verbal communication for delivering clear, data-driven, decision-oriented updates to executive stakeholders.

Bonus Points

• Experience defining or substantially redesigning a commissioning gate framework for site deployments.
• Experience coaching or developing more junior TPMs in technical depth and program execution.
