Senior Staff Technical Program Manager (NPI)

• The TPM frameworks are still being built, which means there is a real opportunity to shape how the function operates rather than inherit how it already works
• We are hiring a Staff TPM who will own deployment programs. You will be helping us build out new sites, capacity expansion, or help deploy modular (Spark) data centers
• Our TPMs define and drive the entire deployment engagement model from chip vendor engagement through first customer cluster delivery
• 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
• 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
• 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

Benefits

• Health & wellbeing: Comprehensive health benefits designed to support your overall wellness
• Time away: Paid time off for vacations, family bonding, and unexpected needs
• 401(k) match: Build your financial future with our 401(k) matching program
• Mental wellness: Resources and support for your emotional wellbeing and navigating life’s challenges

• If you have spent your career running infrastructure deployment programs at a hyperscaler or a leading neocloud, understand GPU architecture, and have shaped deployment frameworks rather than just operated within them, this is the role for you
• 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
• Active daily use of AI tools to drive program-level outcomes: risk detection, dependency mapping, data analysis, and executive communication, not just personal productivity
• 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
• 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
• Direct hardware partner engagement: personal ownership of NVIDIA or OEM certification and validation timelines, not coordination feeding into someone else’s relationship
• 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
• 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
